Scottish bull has testicles removed so he’s still making calves… 15 months after

This is an interesting story.

Even with a broken leg couldn't they probe him and collect?....

Why not clone if he is worth that much?

I have a professor who pulled semen from a buck on a deer farm who had just died. He only took it from the epididymis, so there wasn't a lot of semen but they did get some pregnancies.

Scotch are so tight, they probably dole it out one sperm at a time. He'll be good for years.

It is becoming a fairly normal procedure to collect semen from testicles of a bull that has recently died. I know of one case, where a herd bull died suddenly and the owner cut off his testicles and headed for the vet college, where they successfully froze over 300 straws of semen.
A few years ago, when my herd bull Saskvalley Pioneer 126P died of a massive heart attack, I spoke with the head of the reproductive physiology department at the Vet college in Saskatoon, SK. He recommended that I cut his testicles off and put them in ice in a cooler and take them there. It was a 250 mile trip, but he was fairly certain he could obtain good semen from them even after that long a drive. I decided that seeing we had collected a fair quantity of semen already that we probably would be OK.
I have heard of a few others who have done the same thing.
