I just got my Genex Fall Magazine with "The Full Story Behind W/C Wide Track".  Did they put him down before the negative CA test came back?  The article read like they did but his semen went down to $25.

He gone. They sent him to kill after the third positive test. Bull was a good producer and they had plenty of inventory. Might as well sell the semen when there is still a market for it and the bull is still relevent.

After the mistake in reading the first test, Wide Track was put down because the Werning family chose not to use a carrier bull any further in the progression of their herd. The test which confirmed him negative of CA came after he was put down.

His days were numbered, he suffered a scrotal hernia while on lease and it was just a matter of time. We saw him at stud many times, and you could see the hernia easily. I am sure that was also part of the decision to pull him.
