The Texas County Sheriff’s Department is investigating a case involving cattle missing from a farm on Highway M south of Highways 32 and 17.
Nine cow and calf pairs and a bull reportedly
got out during heavy rain around April 22. The TCSD has received information from a neighbor that the cattle were put back through a gate, but they were apparently put on the wrong person’s property.
Anyone who may have information on the whereabouts of the cattle is encouraged to call the department at 417-967-4165.
