How To Identify & Treat New World Screwworm In Livestock The name screwworm refers to the maggots' feeding behavior as they burrow (screw) into the wound, feeding as they go like a screw being driven into wood. Maggots cause extensive damage by tearing at the hosts' tissue with sharp mouth hooks. The wound can become larger and deepen as more maggots hatch and feed on living tissue. As a result, NWS can cause serious, often deadly damage to the animal. Adult screwworm flies are about the size of a common housefly (or slightly larger). They have orange eyes, a metallic blue or green body, and three dark stripes along their backs. Report mammals and birds with the following signs: Irritated behavior Head shaking The smell of decay Presence of fly larvae (maggots) in wounds Click Here For Updated Information on New World Screwworm: screwworm.gov LMA World Livestock Auctioneering Championship In June 1963, Livestock Marketing Association held the first annual World Livestock Auctioneer Championship (WLAC). The purpose: to spotlight North America's top livestock auctioneers and to salute their traditionally important role in the competitive livestock marketing process. Auctioneers from the United States and Canada came to the Cosmopolitan Hotel in Denver, Colorado to show off their auctioneering talents. Twenty-three contestants sold the same 20 head of cattle over and over again. The contest was held at hotels until 1967, when it traveled to its first LMA member market. Since then the WLAC has been held at member markets around the U.S. and Canada. Recent locations include Missouri, Oklahoma, Texas, Utah, Virginia and West Virginia. Though the rules have changed, the enthusiasm for the competition hasn't. The largest number of entrants in the contest to date was in 1981 when LMA received 105 auctioneer entries. The championship consists of three stages, the qualifying event, semifinals and the finals, held each June in conjunction with the LMA Annual Convention. Contestants competing for the world champion title must be 18 years old, employed as a livestock auctioneer and sponsored by livestock auction or dealer businesses, who share in the favorable publicity generated by the winners. LMA is proud to sponsor an event that brings together North America's top livestock auctioneers in a competition that showcases professionalism and promotes the auction method of marketing.

With rising credit card fees, explore whether they are fueling a comeback of writing checks or using cash. Join radio hosts Rebecca Wanner aka ‘BEC' and Jeff ‘Tigger' Erhardt (Tigger & BEC) with the latest in Outdoors & Western Lifestyle News! Small businesses are increasingly scrutinizing credit card processing fees, which can significantly impact profits. While checks and cash haven't made a full comeback, many business owners are looking for ways to reduce payment costs. How Much Do Credit Card Fees Cost?  Most merchants pay between 1.5% and 3.5% per credit card transaction. Example: Auto Body Shop An auto body shop processing $214,000 annually in credit card payments at a 3.5% processing rate would pay approximately $7,500 per year in credit card fees. That's $7,500 that could otherwise be used for employee wages, equipment upgrades, marketing, or business growth. Are Checks Making a Comeback? In some industries, yes. Businesses that handle large invoices—such as contractors, auto repair shops, property managers, and professional service firms—are increasingly encouraging customers to pay by check or bank transfer to avoid processing fees. Checks can save businesses hundreds of dollars on large transactions, though they require more manual processing and can take longer to clear. What About Cash? Cash remains attractive because there are no credit card processing fees and funds are received immediately. However, cash also comes with challenges: Security risks Additional accounting and handling time Customer preference for card payments Many consumers now expect the convenience of paying with a card or mobile wallet. The Real Trend: Lower-Cost Electronic Payments Rather than returning to paper checks, many businesses are encouraging: ACH bank transfers Debit card payments Bank-to-bank payment apps Real-time payment systems These options often cost significantly less than traditional credit card transactions. Passing the Fee to Customers Some businesses are choosing to pass credit card processing fees directly to customers through a surcharge. For example, if a customer pays a $1,000 auto repair bill with a credit card and the processing fee is 3.5%, the customer may see an additional $35 surcharge on the invoice. This allows the business to recover its payment processing costs rather than absorbing them.

Did you know that these concepts can be introduced as early as ages 3 to 5, while foundational money habits are largely set by age 7. Financial education is life long, so start now!

Canada Closes Border To Texas Cattle & Feedlot Placements New World Screwworm continues to make headlines this week. The USDA has launched a dashboard tracking the pest's impact in the United States, where cases remain isolated to Texas.  That information can be viewed at screwworm.gov. The bigger concern is the spread of cases in Mexico, which has kept the U.S. border closed to imports of Mexican feeder cattle. That comes at a time when beef demand remains strong and supplies are already tight. Cattle imports from Mexico have been restricted since July 2025, with the greatest impact being felt in border states. Feedlots in Texas, California, Arizona, and New Mexico have traditionally relied on feeder cattle from Mexico. Recent data shows cattle-on-feed numbers in Texas and California are running below their five-year averages, while Arizona feedlots are seeing even larger declines. The discovery of New World Screwworm in Texas has also triggered new trade restrictions. Canada has temporarily banned livestock imports from Texas, saying animals that originated in or were present in the state within 21 days of crossing the border will not be accepted. Several U.S. states, including Florida, Georgia, Tennessee, Louisiana, and Montana, have also tightened veterinary requirements for livestock entering from Texas as officials work to prevent the pest from spreading further.

This week, we're heading down to New Orleans circa 1958 to revisit the soundtrack and recording sessions for the iconic musical drama "King Creole." The Dixieland aesthetic gave Elvis an opportunity experiment, melding his now-signature rock and roll style with a small jazz ensemble, creating a soundtrack LP that had a distinct sound all its own. Although few outtakes remain, the songwriter demos for nearly the entire soundtrack provide insight on how Elvis and the band further developed such classic songs as "Trouble," "Hard Headed Woman" and "Crawfish" into the final forms heard in the film. Bec also takes the opportunity chat a bit about her appreciation for the movie itself, highlighting some of her takeaways from her most recent viewing, and posing questions about the Michael Curtiz-directed film as one of Elvis' best starring roles. For Song of the Week, Justin provides a little insight on what influences may have led Elvis to experimenting at home in the mid-1960s with an early 1950s pop ballad, "My Heart Cries for You." Finally, Bec rounds out the episode with a reflection on the intimacy of the underrated "I Miss You" which was also a home recording of sorts - as it was recorded professionally by RCA in Elvis' Palm Springs home! If you enjoy TCBCast, please consider supporting us with a donation at Patreon.com/TCBCast.

From Cody Johnson's recent Alaskan grizzly hunt and Idaho's new fair-chase laws to a disputed trespassing elk antler shed citation, these three stories are fueling debate across the hunting community. Join radio hosts Rebecca Wanner aka ‘BEC' and Jeff ‘Tigger' Erhardt (Tigger & BEC) with the latest in Outdoors & Western Lifestyle News! Why These Stories Matter  Together, these stories highlight some of the biggest conversations in hunting today, including wildlife conservation, hunting ethics, emerging technology, and the relationship between sportsmen and wildlife agencies. As regulations and public attitudes continue to evolve, debates like these are likely to remain at the forefront of the hunting community. Cody Johnson Defends Alaska Grizzly Hunt Amid Social Media Backlash Country music star Cody Johnson is responding to criticism after sharing photos from a recent grizzly bear hunt in Alaska, a trip he took following a year filled with career milestones and major award wins. The hunt quickly sparked debate online. While some fans congratulated Johnson and praised the experience, others criticized the decision to hunt a grizzly bear and questioned whether it was necessary. Some commenters expressed discomfort with seeing photos of the harvested animal, while others challenged the ethics of bear hunting altogether. Johnson says the hunt was conducted legally and under Alaska's wildlife management regulations. In a recent interview, he emphasized that the trip was about more than recreation, describing it as part of a broader conservation effort. According to Johnson, wildlife managers in Alaska closely monitor predator and prey populations. He noted that grizzly bears can have a significant impact on moose and caribou calves, killing 120 -150 calves, and that regulated hunting is one of the tools used to help maintain balance within the ecosystem. Supporters of the hunt echoed that point, noting that hunting licenses, permits, and fees help fund wildlife conservation programs, habitat restoration projects, and scientific research across the state. Johnson also addressed what he sees as a contradiction among some critics. He argued that many people who object to hunting still consume meat, but are removed from the process of harvesting animals themselves. The controversy highlights a long-running national conversation about hunting and wildlife management. Supporters view regulated hunting as an important conservation tool and a way to responsibly source food. Opponents argue that animals, particularly large predators like bears, should not be hunted except in the most limited circumstances. For Johnson, however, the Alaska trip remains a source of pride. He says the hunt was legal, conservation-minded, and rooted in traditions that many hunters believe contribute to the long-term health of wildlife populations. As the online debate continues, the story serves as another reminder of how differently Americans view the relationship between people, wildlife, and conservation.

Governor Brad Little signed the new law in April, and it takes effect this summer. Under the regulations, hunters will be prohibited from using transmitting trail cameras, drones, thermal imaging devices, and night vision equipment to hunt or scout big game and upland birds on public lands between late August and the end of December. The law marks a major shift for Idaho, which previously had few restrictions on technologies such as thermal optics for hunting deer and elk. Supporters say rapid advances in technology — including cheaper thermal devices and satellite-connected trail cameras — give hunters an unfair advantage and could undermine public trust in wildlife management. The restrictions apply specifically to public lands and seasonal hunting activity. Hunters will still be allowed to use cell-enabled trail cameras during spring bear season, and exemptions remain for predator hunting, including wolves and mountain lions. The law also allows technology to be used when recovering wounded animals. Conservation groups and wildlife advocates say the debate over hunting technology has been building for years. Supporters of the measure argue that devices capable of transmitting real-time wildlife images from remote wilderness areas could shift hunting away from traditional skills and toward expensive technology available only to wealthier hunters. The final law is considered a compromise after extensive negotiations among hunters, wildlife managers, and lawmakers. Idaho officials say the regulations will likely continue evolving as the state addresses enforcement challenges and changing technology. https://www.outdoorlife.com/conservation/idaho-hunting-technology-ban/ Wyoming Dad Ticketed After Son Picks Up GPS-Tracked Elk Antler As shed hunting becomes more popular across the western U.S., concerns about trespassing are also increasing, prompting some landowners to try unusual enforcement tactics. In one recent Wyoming case, reported by Cowboy State Daily, a ranch owner dealing with repeated trespassing agreed to let game wardens place elk antlers fitted with tracking devices around private property. One of those antlers was later picked up by a seven-year-old boy, leading to a trespassing citation for his father. According to Cowboy State Daily, the operation took place on the LU Ranch in Hot Springs County. The boy's father, Miles Galovich, received a citation on April 19 after authorities tracked the antler back to his home. The Galovich family owns neighboring property near the ranch, where public and private lands are closely mixed together. The family also reportedly has legal access to a road crossing the LU Ranch and nearby public land, according to the report. Ranch owners had allegedly asked Wyoming game wardens to distribute the GPS-equipped elk sheds around their property in response to ongoing trespassing concerns from shed hunters. According to Outdoor Life, Miles Galovich said he and his son believed they were near public land when the boy spotted the antler about 20 yards off the road. After the child picked it up and brought it home, game wardens later arrived and issued Galovich a trespassing citation. The antler was returned to authorities. Galovich argued the area was not clearly marked or fenced and said the situation “feels kind of like entrapment.” Court records show he could face fines up to $1,000 and potentially lose hunting and fishing privileges. A court hearing was scheduled for May 15 and at this time have not heard the final decision.

Texas Calf With New World Screwworm USDA's Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) confirmed the detection of New World screwworm (NWS) in a 3-week-old calf in Zavala County, Texas, marking the first confirmed U.S. case. The larvae were found in the calf's umbilical area, and no additional cases have been detected to date. New World screwworm is a serious pest whose larvae feed on the living tissue of warm-blooded animals, posing risks to livestock, pets, wildlife, and, in rare cases, humans. In response, USDA and Texas animal health officials have activated their NWS Response Playbook and are taking immediate action to contain and eradicate the pest. Measures include establishing a 20-kilometer quarantine zone around the detection site, increasing surveillance and trapping efforts, deploying additional sterile screwworm flies, implementing wildlife monitoring programs, and forming a unified incident command team. USDA emphasized that the U.S. food supply remains safe, as screwworm does not infest meat products and any affected animals would be identified during federal meat inspection. Officials also urged livestock producers and pet owners in the region to monitor animals closely for signs of infestation and report any suspected cases immediately.

Skincare, makeup, and beauty treatments. When did they first pop up on our spending radar and why? This week’s Deep Dive gets a little… deep. Bec and Jess discuss the cost of beauty standards: who sets them, sustains them, and how we might look at the whole topic with a raised (and sometimes fluffed) eyebrow. Because, whether you overtly subscribe to them or not, beauty standards don’t just affect folks who love a trend, they have the tendency to impact our spending habits and perceptions of value, and even our self worth. And it’s not just women either, just consider the whole looksmaxxing thing. Between the double standards, unrealistic expectations, and self-expression of it all, how have our perceptions around beauty shifted and what are we really buying into? From body hair to full-coverage foundation and the rituals of getting ready, tune in if you’ve ever wondered what we really think about the price of pretty, how we’re feeling about ‘preventative’ measures, and which standards we’re willing to bin at our next earliest convenience. Should we share what our community actually spends on beauty products? Let us know in the comments.

SLOWING DOWN, TAKING IT ALL IN, HEALING FROM LOSS Sometimes what drives people to go on pilgrimage is the need to make sense out of an unbearable loss and to heal our hearts so we can move forward with some sense of peace. Losing a loved one can be disorienting, devastating, knocking us to our knees and throwing us off course. Now imagine losing not just one person who is dear to you, but instead losing multiple people and having that happen in an unusually short period of time. My guest today, Bec, is in the unenviable, awful position of grieving the loss of several family members over too short of a time and to be coming out of some very difficult years. The Camino is the perfect place to take her broken heart. The pilgrimage is going to give her the chance to slow down, take it all in, and heal. JOIN ME ON THE CAMINO FRANCÉS IN 2027? Some of my pilgrims would never walk the Camino without this support. Others just want the camaraderie that comes with starting with people they already know and who are equally passionate and excited about the journey. Still others love that starting this way takes the edge off of the fear and anxiety that comes with taking on something like a pilgrimage on the Camino de Santiago. Others love planning and preparing and appreciate doing that in an organized, linear, and thorough way. How can I support you in making your Camino dream a reality? Walk with me in 2027! Go here to let me know you're interested.   #youonthecamino #caminodesantiago #firsttimepilgrim #thecaminoexperience #caminopodcast

In this episode of Under The Hood, host Jerome Doraisamy speaks with Bec Argent, director of Argent Tax & Advisory, about how in the days of the hour-based accountant, and in a time of voluminous change, emerging leaders in the accounting profession must identify and implement new and better ways to both service clients and run their businesses. Tune in to hear more about: How and why Bec wanted to strike out on her own. How young accountants can thrive in a changing landscape. What she's learned about herself as a practitioner since launching her own firm. What innovation means to her, and the need to keep challenging herself. What emerging practitioners can learn from her experience.

It's The Ranch It Up Radio Show! Join Jeff Tigger Erhardt, Rebecca Wanner AKA BEC and their crew as they hear tips and tricks to manage drought, grass, flies and cows.  Plus updates on beef exports and imports, retail beef prices, market recaps and lots more wrapped into this all-new episode of the Ranch It Up Radio Show. Be sure to subscribe on your favorite podcasting app or on the Ranch It Up Radio Show YouTube Channel. Managing Cattle & Grass In A Drought It is that time of year that many producers are moving cattle to summer grazing.  But drought is plaguing many and it continues to worsen.  According to drought.gov, as of May 5th, 60.92% of the country is experiencing moderate to exceptional drought, largely concentrated in the Southeast, High Plains, and West. There are strategies for managing drought, or I should say how we manage grass and forage uptake in the cowherd to get through drought.  Trevor Burian from Killdeer North Dakota joins us today.  Trevor has been a student of grazing, plant management, regenerative ag, and cattle efficiency and profitability his entire life. Cattle Industry News China & U.S. Beef Trade According to Derrell Peel, Oklahoma State University Extension Livestock Marketing Specialist, the role of China in global beef markets has changed rapidly in the last two decades.  China, including Hong Kong, was not a player at all in global beef markets as little as 15 years ago but has risen rapidly to become the largest beef importer in the last decade. For many years, China was a large beef producing and consuming country but had almost no presence in global beef markets. Starting about 2013, rising beef consumption in China began to exceed domestic beef production, leading for the first time to significant beef imports. Although per capita beef consumption in China remains relatively low — roughly 13 pounds compared to 59 pounds in the U.S. — the large population means that small increases in beef consumption represent large amounts of beef in total. According to the U.S. Meat Export Federation President CEO Dan Halstrom, China's reentry into the market for U.S. beef exports will have a significant and rapid price feedback to the American industry from other markets.  He called it a “hidden benefit” from China's renewal of registrations for U.S. beef facilities as well as hoped-for resolution of suspensions of a significant number of plants. Most of the registrations were abruptly declared expired in March 2025 before being listed as renewed last week following a meeting in Beijing between U.S. President Donald Trump and Chinese leader Xi Jinping.  REFERENCES:  https://meatingplace.com/peel-the-importance-of-china-in-global-and-us-beef-markets/?utm_source=omeda&utm_medium=email&utm_cid=1103020073&utm_campaign=MTGMCD260518017&utm_date=20260519-0300 https://meatingplace.com/usmef-chinese-importers-clamoring-for-us-beef/?utm_source=omeda&utm_medium=email&utm_cid=1103020073&utm_campaign=MTGMCD260518017&utm_date=20260519-0300 https://www.nationalbeefwire.com/peel-the-importance-of-china-in-global-and-u-s-beef-markets Texas Joins DOJ Beef Packing Antitrust Probe An announcement came late last week that Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton launched an investigation into the beef industry over potential anticompetitive conduct among the nation's largest meatpackers. Paxton said the investigation would be conducted alongside a separate antitrust probe announced by the U.S. Department of Justice under President Donald Trump's administration. The investigation is focused on the highly concentrated beef packing sector, where four companies — JBS S.A., Tyson Fresh Meats, Cargill and National Beef Packing Co. — collectively control more than 85% of U.S. beef processing capacity, according to Paxton's office. The attorney general cited reports alleging the companies may have used their market power to suppress cattle prices paid to ranchers while increasing beef prices for consumers.

USDA says sterile fly dispersal efforts are currently concentrated along the Gulf coast of northern Mexico, with additional drops occurring within roughly 50 miles of the Texas border. Officials say the agency is relying heavily on predictive modeling and real-time surveillance data to determine where those flies are deployed. USDA says those decisions are being made in coordination with the agency's Agricultural Research Service, using predictive analytics designed to anticipate where the pest could spread next, not simply where cases are currently confirmed. REFERENCE: https://www.rfdtv.com/usda-expands-new-world-screwworm-surveillance-as-cases-rise-in-mexico-and-sterile-fly-supply-stays-limited U.S. Beef Imports Projected To Top 6 Billion Pounds U.S. Beef Imports are projected to top 6 billion pounds for the first time in history — Up 166% Since 2010.  Last week's USDA WASDE report projected 2026 U.S. beef imports at 6.1 billion pounds, the highest level in history and the first time beef imports have ever exceeded 6 billion pounds.  The projection would mark an increase of 638 million pounds, or 11.7%, from 2025 levels and continue a trend that has seen beef imports increase every year since 2017. Since 2010, U.S. beef imports have climbed from 2.3 billion pounds to more than 6.1 billion pounds, an increase of roughly 3.8 billion pounds, or nearly 166%. The sharp rise in imports has coincided with declining U.S. cattle inventories and historically tight domestic beef supplies. Retail Beef Prices Rocket Higher Retail beef prices continued their sharp climb in April as all 12 major beef categories increased from March levels, with 9 of the 12 cuts establishing new all-time record highs. The Retail Beef Price Composite increased from $8.93/lb in March to a record $9.28/lb in April, rising $0.35/lb in just one month. Ground beef prices continued pushing higher across every category. Ground Chuck increased from $6.68 to a record $6.92/lb, while Ground Beef climbed from $6.70 to $6.90/lb. Lean & Extra Lean Ground Beef jumped $0.31 to a record $8.51/lb, and All Uncooked Ground Beef increased to a record $7.06/lb. Roast values posted some of the largest monthly increases. Chuck Roast, USDA Choice Boneless surged $0.66 to a record $9.50/lb, while Round Roast, Choice Boneless climbed $0.51 to a record $8.98/lb.  Only three categories failed to establish new all-time highs during April. Round Steak, USDA Choice increased from $9.61 to $9.83/lb but remained below its February 2026 record high of $10.09/lb. Beef for Stew, Boneless rose from $8.41 to $8.65/lb but stayed below its November 2025 record of $9.172/lb. All Uncooked Other Beef increased from $7.68 to $7.92/lb, still below its November 2025 record high of $8.20/lb.  Featured Experts in the Cattle Industry Trevor Burian - Burian Rangeland Services, LLC Follow On Facebook: @trevor.burian Shaye Wanner – Host of Casual Cattle Conversation https://www.casualcattleconversations.com/ Follow on Facebook: @cattleconvos Contact Us with Questions or Concerns Have questions or feedback?

Discover the unspoken rules of branding season etiquette every ranch hand should know, from proper cattle handling to respecting the crew. Plus the story of an Idaho hunter who survived a grizzly bear charge while protecting himself and his young son. Follow along and start cooking outdoors with confidence. Join radio hosts Rebecca Wanner aka ‘BEC' and Jeff ‘Tigger' Erhardt (Tigger & BEC) with the latest in Outdoors & Western Lifestyle News! Why Branding Etiquette Matters on the Ranch Branding season is one of the busiest and most important times of the year in cattle country. It's where long days, hard work, and tradition all meet in the branding pen. Whether you grew up ranching or you're showing up to help neighbors for the first time, knowing the unspoken rules matters. Good etiquette keeps the crew safe, the cattle handled properly, and the day moving smoothly. Respect still goes a long way in cowboy culture. The Unspoken Rules of Branding Season Don't Ride in Front of the Boss Every ranch has a flow and leadership structure. Cutting in front of the ranch owner or lead rider is seen as disrespectful and disruptive to the cattle. Only Come if You Were Invited Brandings are community events, but they're still working operations. Showing up uninvited can create unnecessary confusion, safety concerns, and extra mouths to feed. Do the Job You're Assigned Not everyone ropes calves. Not everyone runs the branding irons. The Ranch Boss will place people where they're needed most. A good hand works where asked without complaint. Drag Calves Properly Never drag calves above the hock and/or drag by one leg. Learn How to Vaccinate Correctly Giving vaccines improperly can injure cattle and reduce effectiveness. If you don't know, ask someone experienced. Secondly, if multiple vaccines are being given - work as a team to understand for example who is going high or low on the neck. Leave the Dogs at Home Even well-trained dogs can create problems in a crowded branding pen. Extra animals increase stress on cattle and distract working horses. No Loping in the Pen A branding pen is tight, crowded, and dangerous. Moving too fast puts horses, riders, calves, and ground crews at risk. Let the Crew Handle the Roping Every ranch has trusted ropers who know the cattle and understand the pace of the operation. Unless asked, don't ride into the roping pen. Learn How to Wrestle Calves Roping is only part of the job. Good calf wrestlers are valuable because they know how to control calves safely and efficiently. Ask to be shown how, everyone is always happy to teach. Always Be Aware of Your Surroundings Brandings move fast. Horses, ropes, cattle, gates, and people are all moving at once. Situational awareness keeps everyone safer. Thank The Cooks and the Ranch Boss Events like a branding are a lot of work to host. From cooking for large crews with weather unknowns to leading the branding crew, be courteous and always thank the hosts for allowing you to be a part of the western way of life few have the chance to experience! Tradition, Respect, and Ranch Culture Branding season is about more than cattle work. It's about neighbors helping neighbors, preserving ranch traditions, and earning respect through hard work and awareness. The best ranch hands are usually the ones who stay humble, pay attention, and understand that cowboy etiquette is still very much alive. Hunter Survives Grizzly Charge in Idaho Forest An Idaho hunter shot and killed a charging grizzly bear after officials say the animal rushed toward him and his young son in a remote area near Yellowstone National Park. Wildlife investigators determined the man acted in self-defense and will not face charges. The encounter happened the evening of Saturday, May 16, 2026 in the Caribou-Targhee National Forest while the pair were hunting black bears near Cave Falls Road. According to the Idaho Department of Fish and Game, the grizzly crossed a meadow, caught the hunters' scent, and suddenly turned toward them. Officials say the hunters tried to alert the bear to their presence, but it charged anyway. The man first fired a handgun, then switched to his rifle and killed the bear only about five yards away. The hunter later contacted the Fremont County Sheriff's Office, which notified state wildlife officers. After investigating, officials concluded the shooting was justified because the bear posed an immediate threat to the man and his son. Grizzly bears remain protected under both state and federal law, meaning they can only legally be killed in situations involving defense of human life. The incident comes just weeks after another grizzly attack inside Yellowstone National Park, where two brothers were injured while hiking near Old Faithful. Both survived after being rescued and flown out by helicopter. Wildlife officials are reminding hunters and hikers in grizzly country to carry bear spray, travel with partners, make noise in dense areas, and stay alert for fresh bear tracks or signs.

Projected Higher Steer Prices In 2027 The May WASDE report provided the first official look at 2027 steer price projections, and USDA is forecasting prices even higher than the record levels expected in 2026 and the record prices seen in 2025. USDA projected the 2027 steer price at $254 per hundredweight, compared to the 2026 projection of $249.66 and the 2025 annual average of $224.37. That puts 2027 prices $4.34 higher than the projected 2026 record average, an increase of 1.7%. Compared to 2025, the 2027 projection is $29.63 higher, representing a 13.2% increase. USDA also raised its 2026 projection sharply from $241.66 in the April report to $249.66 in the May update due to tighter expected cattle supplies and stronger recent cash market data. USDA steer price projections refer to the 5-Area, Direct, Total All Grades steer price.

This week, Justin and Bec put on their dancing shoes and boogie back to the week of June 5, 1976 (just a hair under 50 years ago) to see what was happening in the world of American music and where Elvis' latest single "Hurt/For the Heart" ranked on the pop, easy listening and rock charts, before delving into what surrounded "Hurt" as it reached its highest peak at #6 on the Country chart - and RCA's Elvis compilation "Sun Sessions" was nearing the top of the country LP chart, too! What they're surprised to find is not only a popular culture swept up in both disco and 1950s nostalgia, but a snapshot of a time when connections to Elvis seep into most of the rest of the genre of country music, with songs like "Suspicious Minds" and and artists who ALSO once recorded at Sun Records like Johnny Cash, Conway Twitty and Narvel Felts or have other Elvis connections (Elvis movie demo singer Glen Campbell shows up too!) bringing their own stylistic throwbacks to the Top 10. For Song of the Week, Justin solves a mini-mystery surrounding what 1962 movie scene specifically inspired Hank Cochran to write the country classic "Make the World Go Away," which featured prominently on "Elvis Country" and Elvis was filmed performing during the making of "That's The Way It Is" in 1970. Then finally, Bec touches briefly on Elvis' studio and live versions of Kris Kristofferson's "For The Good Times."  If you enjoy TCBCast, please consider supporting us with a donation at Patreon.com/TCBCast.

Be sure to subscribe on your favorite podcasting app or on the Ranch It Up Radio Show YouTube Channel. Managing Cattle & Grass In A Drought It is that time of year that many producers are moving cattle to summer grazing.  But drought is plaguing many and it continues to worsen.  According to drought.gov, as of May 5th, 60.92% of the country is experiencing moderate to exceptional drought, largely concentrated in the Southeast, High Plains, and West. There are strategies for managing drought, or I should say how we manage grass and forage uptake in the cowherd to get through drought.  Trevor Burian from Killdeer North Dakota joins us today.  Trevor has been a student of grazing, plant management, regenerative ag, and cattle efficiency and profitability his entire life. Cattle Industry News Tyson's Multi-Million-Dollar Beef Settlement A federal judge granted preliminary approval to a proposed $47 million class action settlement between Tyson Foods and commercial and institutional indirect purchaser plaintiffs in the ongoing cattle and beef antitrust litigation. An order filed in the middle of last week approved preliminary certification of a settlement class covering entities in the United States that indirectly purchased certain raw beef products sold by defendants between Jan. 1, 2015, and May 6, 2026, for use in commercial food preparation.  The settlement involves Tyson Foods Inc. and Tyson Fresh Meats Inc. Tyson did not oppose the motion for preliminary approval. The plaintiffs in the case include restaurants, catering companies and other foodservice operators alleging anticompetitive conduct in the fed cattle and beef markets. The approval comes on the heels of the DOJ's doubling down on an ongoing investigation into Tyson, JBS, National Beef and Cargill. The DOJ and USDA Secretary Brooke Rollins accused the “Big Four” of colluding to artificially raise beef prices.

March beef exports were down 11% from a year ago, while export value fell 8%. Shipments increased year-over-year to Mexico, Central and South America, the Caribbean and Indonesia, while exports to South Korea and Taiwan were steady. However, exports to China remained minimal and shipments also trailed year-ago levels to Japan and the Middle East. Excluding China, March beef export volume increased 4% from a year ago while value climbed 8%.

The moves by Mexico, the largest market for US pork exports, come a week after the discovery of pseudorabies in a small commercial pig operation in Iowa and a farm in Texas where the infected animals originated, and other trade partners appear to be responding as well. The confirmation of pseudorabies at a small swine facility in Iowa was the first commercial outbreak since 2004, when the US deemed the virus eradicated from the commercial swine industry. The virus can, however, still be found in some feral swine populations, and there is occasional spillover of infection to outdoor herds where contact with feral swine is possible. USDA's Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service said initial traceback from the Iowa herd indicated that affected boars came from an outdoor facility in Texas.  REFERENCE:   https://meatingplace.com/pseudorabies-fallout-no-1-pork-export-market-restricts-some-us-products/?utm_source=omeda&utm_medium=email&utm_cid=1103020073&utm_campaign=MTGMCD260510014&utm_date=20260511-0300 Featured Experts in the Cattle Industry Trevor Burian - Burian Rangeland Services, LLC Follow On Facebook: @trevor.burian Shaye Wanner – Host of Casual Cattle Conversation https://www.casualcattleconversations.com/ Follow on Facebook: @cattleconvos Contact Us with Questions or Concerns Have questions or feedback?

Think Dutch oven cooking is too complicated? Think again. We share simple tips to help beginners enjoy cast iron cooking at camp — from seasoning and fire management to easy favorites like cobblers and chicken pot pie. Follow along and start cooking outdoors with confidence. Join radio hosts Rebecca Wanner aka ‘BEC' and Jeff ‘Tigger' Erhardt (Tigger & BEC) with the latest in Outdoors & Western Lifestyle News!   Dutch oven cooking can seem intimidating the first time you see one sitting in hot coals at camp. Heavy cast iron, open flames, charcoal management, and long cook times can make beginners nervous. But honestly, once you learn the basics, Dutch oven cooking becomes one of the most rewarding outdoor cooking experiences you can have. Why Dutch Oven Cooking Is Worth Learning Dutch oven cooking is not just about making food — it's about slowing down and enjoying the entire outdoor experience. Jeff "Tigger" Erhardt, a seasoned dutch oven master, shares from building the fire to checking the coals and finally serving up a hot meal around camp, it becomes part of the adventure. Some of our favorite recipes are simple: Fruit cobblers Chicken pot pie Campfire biscuits Chili and stews The good news? YouTube is packed with easy Dutch oven recipes and tutorials for beginners. Start with a High-Quality Dutch Oven If you want success, buy a quality cast iron Dutch oven from the start. A good oven heats evenly, lasts for decades, and makes cooking far easier. Just as important is learning how to properly season your Dutch oven. Seasoning protects the cast iron and creates the non-stick surface that makes Dutch oven cooking shine. Again, there are excellent YouTube videos that walk through the process step-by-step. Understand That Dutch Oven Cooking Takes Time This is not fast food cooking. Between getting your fire or charcoal ready and allowing food to cook properly, a Dutch oven meal can easily take two to three hours. That's normal — and part of the fun. Plan ahead: Gather enough firewood or charcoal Watch weather and wind conditions Always check for fire bans before cooking If conditions are too windy or dry, have a backup cooking plan available. Learn Fire and Coal Management One of the biggest keys to Dutch oven success is understanding heat control. Most outdoor cooks use either charcoal briquettes, hardwood embers, or a combination of both. A common rule of thumb is: One-third of the heat underneath Two-thirds of the heat on the lid Having a small shovel nearby is a huge help for moving embers and managing heat safely. Essential Dutch Oven Cooking Gear Heavy-Duty Lid Lifter A quality metal lifter helps safely move the hot Dutch oven and remove the lid without burns. Welding Gloves A good pair of welding gloves is almost mandatory. Cast iron gets extremely hot, and proper gloves protect your hands while handling lids, coals, and cookware. Cleaning Supplies — No Soap! Never clean cast iron with soap. Use hot water, a scraper or brush if needed, and dry the oven thoroughly to prevent rust. A light coat of oil after cleaning helps maintain seasoning. Final Thoughts on Dutch Oven Cooking Don't let Dutch oven cooking intimidate you. Start simple, take your time, and enjoy the process. Some of the best camp memories are built while sitting around the fire waiting for a cobbler or chicken pot pie to finish cooking. The first meal may not be perfect — but it'll probably taste better than you expected. Enjoy! Tigger & BEC Missing Hiker Found Dead in Glacier National Park; Grizzly Bear Suspected Officials in Glacier National Park say a missing hiker found dead this week was likely killed in a grizzly bear encounter, though the incident remains under investigation. Search-and-rescue crews discovered the body on May 6 in a densely wooded area about two-and-a-half miles up the Mount Brown Trail, near Lake McDonald. Park officials said the  victim's injuries were consistent with a bear attack. The hiker has been identified as 33-year-old Anthony Pollio of Fort Lauderdale, Florida. According to local reports, Pollio had planned to hike to the Mount Brown Fire Lookout, a steep and remote trail that passes through prime grizzly habitat. As investigators search the area for signs of bear activity, Glacier National Park has temporarily closed trails connected to the Sperry Trailhead near Lake McDonald Lodge. The park is home to an estimated 300 grizzly bears. If confirmed, this would be the first fatal grizzly attack in Glacier National Park since 1998. The incident comes just days after another grizzly encounter in Yellowstone National Park, where two brothers were injured but survived an attack near Old Faithful. Yellowstone officials believe that encounter involved a female grizzly protecting her cubs. Park officials continue to remind hikers in bear country to carry bear spray, make noise on trails, and remain alert in areas with limited visibility. Lastly, if planning to hike remote areas like Glacier or Yellowstone National Park, check their webpages by going to the Trail Status Report page. Reference: Missing Hiker Found Dead in Glacier National Park Was Likely Killed by a Grizzly https://www.nps.gov/glac/learn/news/remains-of-missing-hiker-found.htm Federal Rule Change Greatly Expands Red Snapper Seasons in the South Atlantic Saltwater anglers along the South Atlantic coast are expected to see the longest recreational red snapper seasons in decades after federal fisheries officials approved new state-managed fishing permits for 2026. The National Marine Fisheries Service has granted special exemptions to Florida, Georgia, South Carolina, and North Carolina, allowing those states to manage recreational red snapper seasons in adjacent federal waters. The move gives state agencies far greater flexibility than the tightly restricted federal seasons that, in recent years, sometimes lasted only one or two days. The Trump administration praised the decision as a major win for recreational fishermen. President Donald Trump highlighted the expanded access in a social media post, calling the permits a long-awaited response to complaints from anglers and coastal communities. Red snapper are among the most prized offshore sport fish in the South Atlantic, valued both for their fighting ability and their popularity as table fare. Federal regulators sharply limited harvests over the past two decades because of concerns about declining populations and overfishing, including complete recreational closures in some years. Many fishermen and state officials have argued those restrictions no longer reflect current fish numbers and have criticized the federal government's stock assessments and management approach. Under the new permits, states will collect their own harvest data through mandatory reporting systems, which supporters say could provide more accurate, real-time information about red snapper populations. Georgia, South Carolina, and North Carolina will each offer two-month recreational seasons from July through August of 2026. Florida will hold multiple shorter openings spread across the year. Daily bag limits will remain low, generally one fish per angler per day. State officials say the expanded seasons come with added responsibility. If states can demonstrate reliable harvest monitoring and sustainable management, the permits could be extended beyond 2026.

President Trump Delays Beef Imports Earlier in the week, President Donald Trump delayed the planned signing of executive orders ‌to allow increased beef imports into the U.S. and to support renewal of the U.S. cattle herd in an effort to address high beef prices.   Last October, Trump ordered a quadrupling of beef imports from Argentina, and a month later removed his 40% punitive tariff on Brazilian beef and coffee. The moves did little to reverse beef prices, which were up 12.1% year-over-year in April, according to the Labor Department's Consumer Price Index.  Beef ‌is more ⁠than 16% more expensive than when Trump returned to office in January 2025. The U.S. Department of Agriculture has projected that the country will import a record 5.8 billion pounds of beef this year, up about 6% from 2025 and ⁠25% from 2024.

Cattle Industry News Florida Restricts Animal Imports From Texas A dangerous livestock pest that hasn't been seen in the United States for years is raising new concerns—this time along the southern border. The New World screwworm is a parasitic fly whose larvae feed on the living flesh of animals, most often cattle. While infections in humans are rare, they can be serious—and in extreme cases, even fatal. Right now, there are no confirmed cases in the U.S. But Texas Agriculture Commissioner Sid Miller says a case has been detected just across the border about 60 miles south of Texas. That proximity is enough to trigger action more than a thousand miles away. Florida officials are now tightening restrictions on livestock coming from six counties in South Texas: Zapata, Jim Hogg, Starr, Hidalgo, Webb, and Brooks counties. Any animals brought in from those areas must undergo additional veterinary inspections and, if needed, treatment before entering the state. Florida Agriculture Commissioner Wilton Simpson says the state is taking no chances. He warned that if the screwworm takes hold, it could have serious economic and animal health consequences. He's also urging ranchers, veterinarians, and animal health workers to stay alert and report anything unusual right away. Here's how the pest works: adult flies lay eggs in open wounds or natural openings on an animal's body. When those eggs hatch, the larvae—commonly known as maggots—burrow into the tissue and begin feeding. According to the CDC, the infestation can worsen quickly if not treated. Texas officials say Florida's response makes sense. The state dealt with a screwworm outbreak in the past, and the memory of that damage still lingers. Meanwhile, as a precaution, the U.S. has shut down livestock trade through ports of entry along the southern border. There are also long-term plans in motion to stop the pest before it spreads. The U.S. Department of Agriculture is building a sterile fly production facility at Moore Air Base in Edinburg, Texas. The idea is to release sterilized male flies into the wild. Since female screwworms mate only once, this strategy helps prevent reproduction and gradually reduces the population. That facility is expected to be up and running by November of 2027. For now, officials say vigilance is key. Even without confirmed cases in the U.S., the threat is close enough to be taken seriously.  REFERENCE: https://www.ktep.org/2026-04-27/florida-is-restricting-animal-imports-from-texas-amid-screwworm-threat FAIR Labels Act Ensures Transparent Alt Protein Labeling Representatives from Missouri, Texas, Nebraska, Idaho and Wisconsin, reintroduced the Fair and Accurate Ingredient Representation on Labels (FAIR Labels) Act in the House to add transparency in food labeling for alternative protein products.  The legislation will provide consumers with clear and accurate information about plant-based and cell-cultivated protein products when making purchasing decisions. Sens. Pete Ricketts (R-Neb.) and John Fetterman (D-Pa.) sponsored the Senate version of the bill. The FAIR Labels Act: Defines "cell-cultivated" and "plant-based alternative" protein products to help consumers easily identify these products. Provides a clear definition of cell-cultivated protein products to ensure labels accurately reflect lab-grown food sources. Requires product labels to use terms like "cell cultivated" or "plant based" and to bear a clear disclaimer if the product does not contain meat or poultry or was not derived from a live animal. Directs the U.S. Department of Agriculture to oversee the labeling of these products, working alongside the Food & Drug Administration to maintain product inspection standards. Confirms the shared jurisdiction of FDA and USDA in overseeing cell-cultivated protein products, and requires the secretaries of agriculture and health and human services to jointly revise their 2019 current memorandum of understanding. NCBA President and Virginia cattle producer Gene Copenhaver said that currently, there is no federal statute for labeling cell-cultivated protein products in the marketplace. For far too long, lab-grown protein companies have exploited the use of terms like ‘meat' and ‘beef' to describe their products, creating the potential for consumer confusion through misleading marketing.  He went on to say that “The FAIR Labels Act will establish a federal guideline for labeling cell-cultivated and plant-based alternative protein products, ensuring consumers can easily differentiate these products from real beef products produced by U.S. cattlemen and cattlewomen.”  REFERENCE: https://www.feedstuffs.com/policy/fair-labels-act-ensures-transparent-alt-protein-labeling Pseudorabies In Iowa & Texas For the first time since being eradicated in the U.S. Commercial swine herds in 2004, pseudorabies (PRV) have been confirmed in herds in Iowa and Texas (Shike, 2026). A small commercial swine facility in Iowa was confirmed to have positive cases of PRV by the USDA's Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) and the National Veterinary Services Laboratories during routine testing. Officials at APHIS, in collaboration with the Iowa Department of Agriculture and Land Stewardship and the Texas Animal Health Commission, revealed that five affected boars in the Iowa facility originated from an outdoor production site in Texas (Shike, 2026). It is believed that the initial infection on the outdoor production site in Texas may have been a result of unintentional contact with feral swine. Pseudorabies virus was eradicated from the U.S. commercial swine herd in 2004. However, it is critically important to remember that PRV is endemic in the feral swine populations around the U.S. An APHIS release stated, “Pseudorabies is still found in wild or feral swine populations, which remain a potential threat of exposure for domestic pigs.” REFERENCE:  https://www.aphis.usda.gov/news/agency-announcements/usda-confirms-pseudorabies-swine-herds-iowa-texas https://extension.sdstate.edu/pseudorabies-detected-iowa-and-texas-swine-farms-prevention-tips-clinical-signs-and-testing Featured Experts in the Cattle Industry Steve Kenyon - The World Famous Miles City Bucking Horse Sale https://buckinghorsesale.com/ Follow On Facebook: @BuckingHorseSale Shaye Wanner – Host of Casual Cattle Conversation https://www.casualcattleconversations.com/ Follow on Facebook: @cattleconvos Contact Us with Questions or Concerns Have questions or feedback?

Learn why building your own RV or Camper owner's manual is the must-do no one tells you about. We're breaking down why building this will save you time, money, and headaches on every trip plus make it easier to sell. Join radio hosts Rebecca Wanner aka ‘BEC' and Jeff ‘Tigger' Erhardt (Tigger & BEC) with the latest in Outdoors & Western Lifestyle News! Stay Organized, Simplify Maintenance, and Boost Resale Value Anywhere You Travel Why You Should Build Your Own RV Owner's Manual If you own a camper or motorhome, the factory manual is only the starting point—not the full story. Real-world use quickly teaches you that every rig has its quirks, upgrades, and seasonal routines that no manufacturer could fully capture. That's where creating your own personalized owner's manual becomes incredibly valuable. Think of it as a living document. Alongside the official instructions, you add what actually works for you. For example, your step-by-step process for winterizing and de-winterizing—what order you drain tanks, which valves tend to stick, or how long it really takes your system to flush properly. These are the kinds of details you'll forget six months later but will wish you had written down. Maintenance tracking is another big reason to build your own manual. Keeping dates, mileage, and notes on oil changes, roof resealing, battery replacements, or appliance servicing helps you stay organized and proactive. It also prevents guesswork, which can lead to costly mistakes. Over time, this record becomes a clear history of how well the RV has been cared for. Your manual can also include a “tips and tricks” section—the little things that make ownership smoother. Maybe it's a workaround for a finicky slide-out, a shortcut for leveling, or a checklist you follow before hitting the road. These insights turn routine tasks into efficient habits and reduce stress, especially when you're setting up or packing up in less-than-ideal conditions. An often-overlooked benefit is resale value. When it comes time to sell, handing over a well-organized, personalized manual gives the next owner confidence. It shows that the RV has been thoughtfully maintained and removes a lot of uncertainty for someone new to that specific model. That peace of mind can make your rig more appealing—and potentially more valuable. In the end, your custom owner's manual becomes your go-to guide, tailored specifically to your camper or motorhome and how you use it. It saves time, reduces frustration, and turns hard-earned experience into something you can rely on—and eventually pass on. OUTDOORS FIELD REPORTS & COMMENTS We want to hear from you!

Early Signals Of Herd Rebuilding Emerge USDA Economist Justin Benavidez says the cattle cycle remains a reliable guidepost, even as producers debate what's really happening on the ground. “The cattle profitability is all based on the cycle… looking back over over 100 years, the U.S. cattle cycle is a very well-documented phenomenon.” He said that while opinions vary widely, he points to gradual trends in the data as the clearest indicator. “What the data is telling us in that pattern over time, is that we're seeing the earliest indicators of a herd rebuild… a slight retention in heifer uptick year over year.” Even so, he acknowledges uncertainty remains. He said he hears how people are very passionate on both sides of whether we're not retaining heifers, or we are retaining heifers, and USDA data, he says… is not telling the full story.” Even so, he continued that year-over-year trends still offer the best directional signal for where the industry is headed.

Cattle Industry News Cattle Herd Rebuilding & Drought These are the best of times for cow-calf producers, at least on paper. The CME feeder cattle index, which tracks the price of feeder cattle at various auctions, is currently 28% higher than a year ago. Even when adjusting for inflation, current feeder cattle prices are almost 20% higher than the previous cyclical peak in 2014.  However, the dramatic increase in cow-calf returns has not caused producers to retain more heifers for cow herd replacement. The sharp jump in returns in 2014 resulted in a 7% increase in beef cow replacement heifers to start the new year.  Last year may have been the best on record for producer returns, but replacement heifers increased just 0.4%, with the beef cow replacements up less than 1%. The Livestock Market Information Center or LMIC expects cow-calf producer returns to be even better in 2026 and 2027. The surge in futures has caused LMIC to raise calculated returns for 2026 by 32% vs. October, while returns for 2027 are now 54% higher than estimated six months ago, at nearly $1,100/cow. There is certainly interest on the part of producers to invest in their operations, but there are several critical hurdles. The main one is drought. We do not yet have a full reading of pasture conditions, but expectations are that conditions are far worse than last year.  According to USDA, about 45% of US cattle are now in areas experiencing severe or more intense drought. Producers with hay stocks are working through them as they wait for spring weather to green up pastures, but that is not guaranteed. Producers may have the best intentions to breed more heifers, but if feed is not there, they may opt to replace older cows rather than expand the herd. The other challenge is uncertainty about beef demand, not today or tomorrow, but in 2027, 2028, and beyond. The economy is on solid footing, and combined with a growing consumer appetite for protein, this has helped push beef demand to the highest point in 30+ years. Consumers are fickle and tastes change. After many years of battling drought, packers, and changing consumer diets, for some producers this is a golden opportunity to cash out.  REFERENCE: https://meatingplace.com/dlr-monthly-exclusive-herd-rebuilding-collides-with-drought-uncertainty/ Canada's Beef Traceability Rules On Hold Changes to Canada's beef traceability regulations were set to take effect in spring 2026 under Part 15 of the Health of Animals Regulations, but the Canadian Food Inspection Agency has paused publication of the proposed amendments after significant pushback from cattle producers. The complexity of the regulatory package has fuelled misunderstanding across the industry, and opposition has been vocal — including a petition launched Jan. 8 that has drawn nearly 30,000 signatures. Traceability efforts began before the 2003 BSE crisis, as the disease spread across Europe and Canada prepared for its arrival. The system was built to identify where infected animals came from and where they went, so the Canadian market could reopen as quickly as possible.  Rick Wright of the Livestock Markets Association of Canada said   without  industry being at the table from day one, we may have been slapped with something that's closer to what Europe is than what we've got today. Producers have raised concerns about several elements of the proposed changes: the requirement to use premises identification numbers to purchase identification tags, the seven-day movement reporting window and the expanded role of the Canadian Livestock Tracking system. —  particularly for those without reliable internet access. Other concerns include government overreach, the administrative burden on producers who move and sell cattle frequently, and what many see as insufficient communication from both the CFIA and producer organizations. Some producers have said publicly they do not intend to comply. REFERENCE: https://www.canadiancattlemen.ca/news/beef-traceability-rules-paused-producer-backlash/ Vet Shortage Challenges Livestock Producers Access to large animal veterinary care continues to be a growing concern, as livestock producers in Wyoming, Nebraska and Colorado face ongoing shortages in rural veterinary services. Much of the region has been identified as underserved through the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Veterinary Medicine Loan Repayment Program, which designates areas lacking sufficient veterinary coverage and offers incentives to attract practitioners. These designations underscore a widespread challenge in maintaining adequate care for livestock-heavy states. In these states, livestock operations are often spread across large geographic areas, meaning  veterinarians cover extensive territories. Even a small decline in available practitioners can have significant impacts, leading to longer response times, increased travel distances and limited availability during critical periods. For producers, access to timely veterinary care is essential for herd health, productivity and regulatory compliance, especially during high-demand seasons such as calving. Federal and state programs across the Northern Plains show a growing recognition of the issue, but also highlight the scale of the challenge. Incentive-based programs in states like Nebraska aim to recruit veterinarians into rural practice, while proposed federal legislation seeks to strengthen those efforts. Wyoming's investments, meanwhile, support the broader animal health systems that depend on veterinary capacity. Even with these efforts, the shortage of large animal veterinarians remains a long-term concern. Sustained focus on education, recruitment and retention will be critical to ensuring livestock producers across Wyoming, Nebraska and Colorado have access to the veterinary care they depend on. REFERENCE:  https://www.thefencepost.com/news/veterinary-shortage-challenges-livestock-producers-across-the-northern-plains/ McDonald's Big Arch McDonald's efforts to balance prices and value in the face of more expensive inputs and inflation-stressed consumers is leading the chain to upgrade burgers even as chicken takes up more menu space, according to CEO Chris Kempczinski. He went viral recently in a video promoting McDonald's newly introduced Big Arch, drawing social media ridicule for taking a dainty bite. Bosses from competing chains made videos chowing down on their own sandwiches, but the hoopla ultimately dramatically raised awareness of the new burger. Kempczinski said in a recent video interview with the Wall Street Journal that there's a group of consumers out there who want a really big burger that's a half pound of beef in the Big Arch. He went on to say as you look at what consumers were buying, and perhaps other places; fast casual restaurants or or even fine dining or full dining, there's a desire to have sort of an elevated burger experience. And I think what we've done with the Big Arch, the bun, sauces that we have with it, the crispy onions, all those things. That was for us, a way to offer that more elevated burger experience.” Kempczinski said there's been quite a bit of cost inflation, both on the input side, so food and packaging, those costs are up pretty significantly,” Burgers and beef … has probably been one of the most hard-hit areas, and then you also had quite a bit of labor inflation that's happened.” McDonald's has been steadily adding chicken items to its menu for years, in part to manage input costs. Its expansion this year of value menu items has also been chicken-centric.
