8- B.I. Cattle Ranchers under quarantine

Where I grew up folk tended to buy an entire cow for personal use and take it to the butcher when it was ready. They would then have a whole cows worth of meat in the deep freeze all year round to live off of and gift to friends/family.

Does that sort of thing happen around here? I'd hate to have me beef raised here, shipped to the mainland for fattening, slaughtered on the mainland, and then shipped back here for consumption!

Cheers
