(ANIMAL NEWS) CALIFORNIA — The USDA has confirmed that they have discovered a dairy cow infected with mad cow disease at a rendering plant for sick and diseased animals in California. They assert that there is “no cause for alarm” because no part of the animal entered the food supply, and that the plant processes these animals into only non-edible products. This cow was destroyed rather than being processed, but this report brings up more questions than it answers. How was this cow infected? What kind of products come out of these rendering plants and are they properly labeled? Read more about this dairy cow and what this case of mad cow disease means for the beef industry and our nation. — Global Animal
