I also donated the development rights of my forty-seven acres to the Texas Land Conservancy. The permanent conservation easement ensures that no matter what happens, no matter how many suburbs sprout up around it, my family’s land will remain an active, working agricultural farm in perpetuity.
As for Taurus, he became an absolute celebrity.
The local news footage of him destroying the Tesla generated over fifteen million views online. We called him the “Justice Bull.” Breeding rights for his offspring command premium prices across the state, and I donate a large portion of those proceeds to farm animal rescue organizations.
Sometimes, when I’m walking the fence line at dusk, I see young families from the subdivision resting on Sarah’s memorial bench. The kids will point out into the field, hoping to catch a glimpse of the famous bull who defended our farm. I’ll tip my hat to them, lean against the wooden posts, and listen to the quiet, steady breathing of my herd.
