None of your roping and throwing here! The cattle chute keeps the animals calm while being processed, and keeps the handlers safe. This one is in southern Ontario, Canada. The video was taken on a cold winter's day when the temperature was around -13C.

  • why use heated metal when u can easily freeze brand without burning the animal's skin?

    ugh that was a bit painful to watch...

  • I'd like to put your head between this machine and brand your ass three times....looks like fun to me, and we can easily recover you when in a crowd....

  • in my opinion, roping is more efficient and faster because you can have several ropers dragging calves at one time. Although the stress level maybe higher than in a chute, it would go down faster roping because the animal is not in a confined area as long than in the chute. Ponoholo ranch, here on the big island of Hawaii, they operate at a low stress policy and branding 600 calves roping goes by in a mater of 3-4 hours vs. brand 600 calve via chute would take all day!

  • ever thought about the possibility, this cattle moved because it was frightened according to the unknown touch? the third time it didnt act hurt.

    and after, it didnt run away in panic

  • @Br3zizH

    freeze branding obviously HAS tu hurt, because it damages the animals' skin... it HAS TO.

  • @br3zizh I agree, while watching it I though of ways to write it. We freeze brand our cattle and horses. We dont even gotta shave off any furr
