Note: This is a rebroadcast from Season 1 of the show that covers a pivotal period of time in Florida's cattle industry. Brucellosis, a devastating bacterial disease, wreaked havoc on the Florida cattle industry for many years until a federal eradication program was instituted. On this episode, we discuss the history of the program in Florida and hear firsthand accounts from Linda Crane and Evelyn Tiencken, two ladies who served as field technicians in the fight against this costly disease. Most importantly, these two ladies used their natural grit and grace to navigate what was widely considered a man's domain winning over the respect, trust, and admiration of the cattlemen in the process paving the way for a successful eradication outcome.
