This is Lariat. He was a huge Longhorn steer that had been hand raised to be exhibited at the fair. Very docile and willing to pose to have his picture drawn. As I knelt next to his pen he occasionally let out a huff (thank goodness it was all from the favorable end) to let me know that he was still in charge. His keepers told me that he acted like a big puppy dog, and when the fair was over and the Steer returned to the field, he would cavort like a calf- kicking up his heels and running about. Image is approx. 8x10 inches.
