It’s not hard to find a cattle producer who has had a problem with black vultures and the threats and damage they pose to the livestock.
The bipartisan Black Vulture Relief Act, led by Rep. John Rose (R-TN) and Rep. Darren Soto (D-FL) has been introduced.
It would allow a cattle producer to take black vultures that pose a threat to livestock. It also institutes a report that producers submit annually detailing the number of vultures they took.
The National Cattlemen’s Beef Association announced they are welcoming the legislation.
