This hybrid will eat lower quality plants or plants that normal cattle will not, mothers will produce a rich milk helping the calf to grow quicker.

From cattle they will show traits of fertility, milking ability and ease of handling.


What is a cow guard?

A cow guard, or cattle guard, is a gateless entry through a fence, used in ranches to allow vehicles to cross without having to get out to open/close the gate. There is a ditch at the entrance that is laid over with pipe and spaced where cattle will not walk over it while providing access to vehicles. The cattle guard, also called a Texas gate, is more of an optical ilusion for the cattle because they have poor depth perception and think that the spaces between the bars is a bottomless pit that they cannot get out of. Also, the spaces between the bars look wide enough that they cannot walk easily over, so that also deters them from crossing.

Did Joe Biden ask for more training for cattle guards?

No. This is an urban myth surrounding a play of words, if you will, and the ignorance of city folk versus the rural folk. To those who do not know what "cattle guards" are, they assume they are people who guard cattle for a living. Instead, they are really iron bars welded together to form a platform for vehicles to drive over while at the same time providing a barrier for cattle to prevent them from crossing.
