Yesterday, USD confirmed two additional cases, one in Texas in a calf in La Salle county and another in Leah County, New Mexico, in a dog that we Are hearing has been moved up from Mexico. And Today, just a couple of hours ago, we had an additional confirmation in a goat in Gillespie County, Texas. These developments obviously represent a serious threat to our livestock and wildlife, but they haven't caught us off guard. We have been tracking this pest for a long time and we have fought before and we will do so again. (25:13–25:20)
