Cattle are male or female. He should have jotted down whether the animal was male or female. (My inner farmer is coming out.) Otherwise, lovely article!
I don’t mean to sound pedantic but coming from a cattle property background I think spell check invaded your post?! I believe shute is the term for yard races.

Yes, probably!
