On 24 Mar 2015, a veterinarian reported that a client poured around 100 head of cattle, including a 5 week old beef calf with 10 cc of Ultra Saber on 20 Mar 2015. On 23 Mar 2015, they found the calf dead. They are unsure what day the calf died and if it could have ingested any Ultra Saber by licking. The calf was too far decomposed to necropsy. No further follow up expected.
