Who says we don't? Of course we do, we use antibiotics almost as much and for the same reasons as our neighbors to the south of us do, except that we don't feed antibiotics to our dairy cows. With beefers, antibiotics are, just like our southerly neighbors, used to treat sick animals or as a means to increase feed efficiency and average daily gain in our feedlot cattle.
