The Bureau of Land Management is confirming it killed six cattle as part of its standoff against the Bundy Ranch in Bunkersville, NV.
“A total of six cattle died or were euthanized,” a BLM official told Breitbart News.
The official listed the dead livestock cataloged by the BLM explaining, “The Bundy branded bull that was euthanized posed a significant threat to employees during the gather. The Bundy branded cow ran into a fence panel injuring its spine and was euthanized.” The dead animals listed by the official were:
•1 Bundy branded bull was euthanized •1 Bundy branded cow was euthanized •1 unbranded bull was euthanized •1 unbranded cow was euthanized •1 unbranded bull died •1 unbranded cow died
According to the BLM, the gather was based on recent court orders. “Most recently, in 2013, in two separate orders, the U.S. District Court of Nevada directed Mr. Bundy to remove his cattle within 45 days, and authorized the United States to impound his cattle,” said the official.

Yep, you don’t abandon generators and other valuable equipment unless you get a call from above to abort mission.
Perhaps Monsanto threatened to sue if they called it a "round up".
He looks like a used-car salesmaggot.
Eric Idle and John Cleese were contracted to “euthanize” the cattle using a trebouchet.
The Branch Davidians didn't stand a chance against that mindset and neither will the next group. The Bundy family was lucky to have good, well-armed and fed up neighbors, along with a lot of publicity.
Like obama was heard saying off camera, he's really good at killing people, whether he's using flying drones or the drones of some alphabet agency.
That's not just the "Chicago Way", it's the demonrat's way.
The selected/volunteer Utah meat processor apparently received $300,000.
How many cows did the BLM steal, originally? I've read (here on FR) numbers from 200 to 900. "One" would be too many, but I'm curious.
Out of that, how many would be a "reasonable", "Believable", "pick-a-word" number to have met their maker during the time they were being driven around?
Of course, the answer is "Zero", if they're your cows being stolen. But I'd figure that livestock that size, being herded around from place to place, must come with some amount of risk, both to the animals AND the herders.
And the previous posters, discussing that there sure looked like a lot more cows in the hole the BLM left .... is spot on. Speculation that the BLM stalled until they'd covered up (or attempted to cover up) what they'd done....makes a whole lot more sense, to me. At least, that's what Occam's razor says, barring a more succinct explanation.
Can we do a quick check of Arizona Laws?
I’d bet there is still one out there for “deliberately stampeding cattle”.
Did you see Greta last night. The animals were shot multiple times and endured a great deal of suffering befor death. Each of the four cows were nursing young.
It's also the "Reno" way of Nevada and Rustler Reid.
For lack of any available family pets to kill, or they are moving to larger targets.
So, what’s going to be the excuse if they find more than 6 cattle at the bottom of a BLM-dug hole?
An Inconvenient Truth?
Reno and Vegas started out being run by the Chicago Mob.
Why is it any different today?
Skeptic than I am, should a even consider the BLM’s claim of 6 animals?
Federal bureaucrats are basically pathological liars. They lie when there is no good reason to lie. And they lie profusely and (occasionally) proficiently as a matter of course. SOP.
So it looks like the whole operation was fully funded and everybody - ex-mil contractors, equipment providers, slaughterhouses - were paid in advance. SOMEBODY authored a successful grab of at LEAST 800 cattle-plan.. who?
Success has a million fathers, failure is a bastard. Shouldn’t be hard to find the ‘brains’ of the failed mission.
A total of six cattle were run to death or shot to death MUDERED.
Now it's fixed!
If that had been 6 K-9 units???
“...posed a significant threat to personnel...”
A useful line allowing the official government GS-9 rustlers to kill and forget.
Soon to be used with humans.
