The
Rancher's Guide to Elk and Bison Handling Facilities  Did
you know that an elk can clear an eight foot high fence when pressured? Or that
a frightened bison will attempt to ram their way through even a small opening
in a wooden chute?
These
and other questions are addressed in PAMI's new guide for producers who are thinking
about or have already started building elk and bison herds. Appropriate fencing
and handling systems must protect both the animal handler and the animal when
performing operations such as sorting, disease testing, vaccinations, artificial
insemination, pregnancy checking, ear tagging, blood testing, and other procedures.
Thirty-five pages of actual producer interviews, with 60 colour photos and illustrations
of their handling systems in operation in Manitoba and Saskatchewan. To preview
