In most areas, mobile butchers will come for the injured cow, killing her
right where she stands, so she doesn't have to ride ANYWHERE. I think we
have two such services here. That slaughter solution is NOT available for
horses in this country--although I was intrigued when Heather stated that
that was an option in some areas of Europe.
