It was illegal to import Charolais cattle. Ranchers got around it by importing Charolais semen and back-hreed8ng with legal cattie until they had virtually pure Charolais.
I figured out the headline:
The ‘unthinkable’ was using TexasGator as the medium.
You know what they say about Texas...
Those sheep could never reproduce.
Nobody’s accusing Rob Waugh of having a brain.
And I don’t see any crime here.
Not baaad! I only have eyes for ewe

I don’t get it either. It’s seems like breeding (husbandry) to develop hybrids and purebreds has been going on in the animal and plant world for decades.

Mutilate children with or without parental consent...A-okay.
Clone giant sheep..go to jail.

Am I the only one who read this whose mind went in a completely different direction involving foreign men?
Hahahahaha...I knew a guy when I was in the Navy named “Barney” who said he grew up on a farm, and that he wore large boots so the hind hooves of the sheep could fit into them.
When I looked at him, puzzled, he said “I would walk them to the water. Sheep don’t like water.”
To this day, I could never figure out if he was just pulling the chain of an innocent new guy, or...
