"Obviously, nobody wants to go out anywhere and shoot an animal. It was a last resort."

No hunters in that PD nor any farmboys. I've never head of anyone haveing to kill a valuable stock animal in order to get it back into a pasture. Sounds more like just a couple of yahoos with badges and guns.

Thats the bizzare part of this whole episode. The road where this occured is nothing but farmland and pastures. If the deputies had waited a few minutes someone with common sense could have been located who could have offered a solution other than slaughter.
