Cattle and Flooding
With the recent rains and snow melting there has been some flooding issues occuring throughout the state. South Dakota State University Extension Veterinarian, Dr. Russ Daly, sent out an email this morning and said, "I had a call this morning from Brown County, and spoke to the EMS director there describing a herd of cattle stranded by flooding northwest of Aberdeen along the Elm River. This may get to be a more frequent issue as the days go on." He also goes to add, "Most available resources address flood recovery, but this one gives some pointers about actions during a flooding event:"
