What does a rig mean in the horse world?

Are rig steers fertile?

No. Steers are infertile, no matter what kind of steers they are, because they have been castrated to prevent them from being fertile in the first place (hence, being bulls).


What is a horse with one testicle called?

There are several terms. The medical term would be cryptorchid, although this implies that the testicle was left accidentally and a competent vet should have found both testicles and removed them. If the testicle was deliberately left during castration (which is a potential breach of veterinary medical ethics if the horse is sold as a gelding but is actually still a stallion) then the stallion would be called 'proud cut' or a 'ringling'. This was somewhat common in circus horses, where one testicle was removed to improve the horse's temperment and make him easier to control but the other was left so that the horse would look like a stallion (develop the thicker neck, heavy muscling, etc.).


Why do people have concerns about drones?

Drones raise a number of concerns. Privacy for one. If I am in my backyard laying out for a suntan I don't want a drone hanging around or peeking in my windows. Drones have been flown near airports and planes. That could cause an accident and bring down a airliner killing people. Some have used one to interfere with the police and there is no reason why someone involved in terrorism couldn't rig one with a bomb or worse. These are just a few reasons why drones need to be regulated.


Fly-fish can you have two flys?

Assuming you mean fishing with two flies at the same time, yes you can as long as it is legal in the jurisdiction you are fishing. There are many lakes and rivers in some areas where only a single fly is allowed. In fly fishing competitions, where fishing more than one fly is legal, there are rules and regulations about the minimum distance between the flies must be. In some jurisdictions, fishing three flies in a tandem is allowed. The fly that is attached to the end of the line is called the "point fly." The fly(s) above are said to be "on the dropper" as they are tied to leader material that is attached to the main leader and "drop" from the main leader. In stillwater fly fishing when midges or chironomids are hatching, fishing two or three chironomid imitations in tandem can be very effective.
