But he can’t take his animals to just any veterinarian. Large animal veterinarians specialize in working with animals on ranches and farms. In a state where cows outnumber people, those veterinarians are in short supply, and federal regulations on beef and dairy have only increased the pressures on those who do work here. An estimated 2.5 million cattle live in Idaho and are part of the state’s more than $12 billion beef and dairy industry. The state has another 235,000 head of sheep and lamb, according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture. Those numbers don’t include the many other large animals being raised in the state. All of those animals will need veterinary care at some point. Idaho does not, however, have a veterinary school. That, paired with Idaho’s ag-centric economy, rural landscape, an aging veterinarian population, and cost barriers to joining the profession, has put a spotlight on the state’s need to recruit and retain more veterinarians who are willing and able to work with large animals. Idaho Reports visited Lufkin Cattle Company this summer to discuss the needs and demands of veterinary care on ranches. Large animal vets are often on call 24 hours a day, seven days a week, should there be an emergency on a ranch. Usually, Lufkin said, he can get a veterinarian on-site in half an hour. “But I’ve had instances when... they’re out of town for some various thing and you can’t get somebody, and I have loaded animals and hauled them to Idaho Falls, which is ... a three-hour drive, basically, in the winter,” Lufkin said. A three-hour wait for emergency vet care isn’t uncommon for other rural parts of the state, he said. State veterinarian Dr. Scott Leibsle said ranchers have unique needs when seeking care for their animals. “Some of the challenges that the livestock producers in Idaho livestock, producers anywhere in the United States, face are there are certain either tests or documents that can only be issued by an accredited and licensed veterinarian,” Leibsle said. “An example of that is a health certificate. So, if you’re participating in commerce, whether you’re a dairy or a beef operation, you have to have a certificate of veterinarian inspection, otherwise known as a health certificate, signed by a veterinarian, before those shipments of animals will leave the state. So only an accredited veterinarian can sign that.” Common treatments like antibiotics or vaccinations must also come from a certified vet. The number of active large animal veterinarians in Idaho isn’t easy to pin down. While the Board of Veterinary Medicine has approximately 900 licensed veterinarians throughout the state, it doesn’t track specialties, Leibsle said. That total includes those who treat only small animals, exotic animals, government research veterinarians, and industry professors. For example, when Leibsle moved from working as a large animal vet to a government employee, his license did not change. Leibsle said he can make educated guesses about the number of active large animal vets based on brucellosis vaccinations distributed each year. The vaccination is mandatory in Idaho for female cattle. “As cattle-centric as Idaho is, our livestock industry is, I know there’s roughly 425,000 brucellosis vaccinations given annually,” he said. “The Department of Agriculture monitors that, and 90% of those vaccinations that are given annually are done by about 50 vets. So that tells me that 50 veterinarians are providing a really big chunk of the cattle services that this state desperately needs.” Cows gather on Carl Lufkin’s ranch in Lemhi County. Lufkin’s ranch raises seed stock angus cattle, meaning he uses a veterinarian about twice as much as the average ranch to help facilitate fertility needs in breeding. The cost of veterinary school is another barrier that many people face. Students often leave school with more than $200,000 of student debt, Leibsle said. Large animal vets also can’t see as many patients in one day as a small animal vet could, because they generally drive to the patient. “You only can see three, four, five appointments in a day,” Leibsle said. “Conversely, if you’re a small animal veterinarian, people bring their pets to you, and you can see 30 or 40 appointments a day. The earning power by definition of small animal vets compared to large animal vets is significantly different.” Additionally, many of those vets are aging. Of the top 50 producing large animal vets, 16% are over the age of 60, and 10% are older than 70, according to Leibsle. Idaho has a partnership with Washington State, guaranteeing 11 slots in the veterinary college for Idaho students. Typically, however, only about 10% of veterinary students want to be large animal vets. The state is trying to address the shortage. In 2024, the Idaho Senate passed a resolution to encourage a partnership with Utah State University’s veterinary school, similar to what Idaho currently has with Washington State. Mike Keckler, Legislative Affairs Officer with the State Board of Education, told Idaho Reports that Utah State University is willing to enter into an agreement, but legislators must determine the next steps in moving forward. The state is also working on incentives through the USDA’s Veterinary Medicine Loan Repayment Plan to help with some of the cost. If the recent graduate is willing to practice here and focus on a specific species that needs veterinary support for three years, they can get up to $75,000 for loans repayment. “The number one economic (industry) in Idaho is the dairy business,” said Lufkin. “Number two is the beef business. Most people think we’re about potatoes, but dairy and beef are the two biggest economic drivers in the state of Idaho, and we need to feed the world. So, veterinarians are a critical part of two of the biggest economic drivers in the state of Idaho.” Get local news delivered to your inbox!

Sigma Investment Counselors Inc. Acquires 636 Shares of Amazon.com, Inc. (NASDAQ:AMZN)Arkansas receiver Andrew Armstrong said Tuesday that he is entering the NFL Draft. Later in the day, a school spokesman told reporters that Armstrong will skip the Razorbacks' bowl game. The destination isn't yet known. Armstrong led the Southeastern Conference in both receptions (78) and receiving yards (1,140) but caught just one touchdown in 11 games this season. His catches and yardage were both second-most in Arkansas history behind Cobi Hamilton, who had 90 receptions for 1,335 yards in 2012. "It's been a journey for the books and I wouldn't trade it for anything because it has made me into the man I am today," Armstrong said of his Razorbacks tenure in a social media post. "... I will never forget all the moments that were shared here in Fayetteville." Armstrong played two seasons at Texas A&M-Commerce before transferring to Arkansas ahead of the 2023 season. In two seasons with the Razorbacks, he caught 134 passes for 1,904 yards and six scores. --Field Level Media

Speaking in Canberra yesterday, Williams was asked about Joe Rogan’s influence on the US election, and if the ABC should be trying to capture the “bro market”. Williams opened by saying he was not well placed to answer the question because he is “not a consumer or enthusiast of Mr Rogan and his work”. The ABC boss then launched an attack on the popular podcaster: I think that people like Mr Rogan prey on people’s vulnerabilities. They prey on fear. They prey on anxiety. They prey on all of the elements that contribute to uncertainty in society, and they entrepreneur fantasy outcomes and conspiracy outcomes as being a normal part of social narrative. I personally find it deeply repulsive, and to think that someone has such remarkable power in the United States is something that I look at in disbelief. I’m also absolutely in dismay that this can be a source of public entertainment, when it’s really treating the public as plunder for entrepreneurs that are really quite malevolent.” The clip of the attack was shared to X by an account called @wideawake_media, where it caught the attention of Rogan himself. Rogan shared the clip with the caption “LOL WUT”. Musk then weighed in, adding his own message to Rogan’s post. Musk wrote, “From the head of Australian government-funded media, their Pravda”. Pravda was the official newspaper of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union. 3.52am Parliament set to pass social media ban for under 16s Children younger than 16 are all but set to be banned from social media, with federal parliament poised to enact the world-first legislation. The Senate is expected on Thursday to pass the laws that would ban young people from platforms such as Facebook, Instagram and TikTok with bipartisan support. However, there has been concern that the proposal has been rushed through parliament without proper scrutiny, given that Australia would be the first country to implement such a ban. Loading The ban would come into effect one year after the laws pass the parliament, with trials of age-verification technology still being carried out by the federal government. Criticism had been levelled at the ban after an inquiry into the laws ran for just three hours, with people only given one day to hand in submissions and a lack of consultation with young people themselves. While the bill has enjoyed bipartisan support, several coalition members have broken ranks to raise concerns. Tasmanian Liberal MP Bridget Archer crossed the floor to vote against the ban in the House of Representatives, while coalition senator Matt Canavan has also criticised the laws. AAP 3.43am Trump transition says cabinet picks were targeted by bomb threats, swatting attacks A number of President-elect Donald Trump ’s most prominent Cabinet picks and appointees have been targeted by bomb threats and “swatting attacks,” Trump’s transition team said Wednesday. The FBI said it was investigating. “Last night and this morning, several of President Trump’s Cabinet nominees and Administration appointees were targeted in violent, unAmerican threats to their lives and those who live with them,” Trump transition spokesperson Karoline Leavitt said in a statement. She said the attacks ranged from bomb threats to swatting, in which attackers initiate an emergency law enforcement response against a target victim under false pretences. The tactic has become a popular one in recent years. President-elect Donald Trump arrives to speak at a meeting of the House GOP conference, followed by Elise Stefanik.

President Trump and the entire Transition team are grateful for their swift action,” Leavitt said. Among those targeted were Elise Stefanik, Trump’s pick to serve as the next ambassador to the United Nations, Matt Gaetz, Trump’s initial pick to serve as attorney general, and former New York congressman Lee Zeldin, who has been tapped to lead the Environmental Protection Agency. Susie Wiles, Trump’s incoming chief of staff, and Pam Bondi, the former Florida Attorney General whom Trump has chosen as Gaetz’s replacement, were also targeted, according to a law enforcement official who spoke on condition of anonymity amid the ongoing investigation. Wiles and Bondi did not immediately respond to requests for comment. The FBI said in a statement that it was “aware of numerous bomb threats and swatting incidents targeting incoming administration nominees and appointees” and was “working with our law enforcement partners. We take all potential threats seriously, and as always, encourage members of the public to immediately report anything they consider suspicious to law enforcement.” AP Advertisement 3.31am What’s making headlines By Josefine Ganko Good morning and welcome to the national news blog.
