Terrible. But how is a heifer worth $45,000?

Good normal ‘replacement’ heifer might be $4500, so there may be a typo, BUT a high-value genetic line might be twice the $45k mentioned and be certainly insured somewhat. Tax and insurance people will decide if necessary.

I remember back in the ‘60s my cousin went to an auction in Canada. 1 bull sold for $40,000 but in its prime, a breeding bull and many bidders.

That’s an insurance (or lawsuit!) number, not a livestock sale barn number.
