A truly closed herd will... eliminate as many sources of disease transmission as possible. A closed herd will have no contact(even fence-line) with any other livestock or wildlife and will limit visitor/service provider access to areas where cattle are never present. In a closed herd, non-home raised animals(even horses, dogs) never set foot on the ranch and any animal that leaves home never comes back. 3, record 1, English, - closed%20herd
