TalonRider Posted November 5, 2005 Report Posted November 5, 2005 Thief Steals $75,000 Worth of Bull Semen By Associated Press Wed Nov 2, 8:56 PM WOLFSVILLE, Md. - Someone stole $75,000 worth of bull semen from a Frederick County farm, the sheriff's office says. Eric Fleming said the six small canisters of frozen semen taken from a liquid nitrogen tank represented four to five years of collection work. He said he had planned to sell it and use the proceeds to expand his breeding herd of shorthorn beef cattle. "I'm so depressed about this that I probably will get out of the cattle business," Fleming said Tuesday. He said he found the semen missing from an outbuilding on his Stonewood Acres farm in northwestern Frederick County Sunday night. Fleming said the canisters held the semen of 40 to 50 bulls.
