Merri and Wade Staigle helped deliver donation heifers to Prairie City, S.D.
ranchers Sebby, Center, Sadee, second right, and Reggie Keil, who lost
cattle in an early-October blizzard. Photos provided courtesy of the Center
Republican, a BHG paper.
“Center rancher Wade Staigle unloads donation heifers at his ranch before
hauling them to South Dakota. He and five other area ranchers sent a trailer
load to cattlemen who lost livestock during an October blizzard. The owner of
Mandan Lake Simmentals has spearheaded an effort to collect donation heif-
ers for two young ranchers that lost cattle during an October blizzard in South
Dakota. After talking with several ranchers and getting papers the cattleman
was able to haul eight heifers.”
