It rained just enough we couldn’t get trailers in any pasture, so we kicked cattle into the road and went where we needed to go

Sometimes writers reveal they know nothing about an industry in the funniest way possible. Like in Scooby-Doo and the Alien Invaders the villains proclaim they're supplementing the income from their illegal mining operation by selling off the cows they stole from the locals as part of their ruse.
But like selling a cow is a whole fucking thing. That creature's almost certainly branded or tagged. You know these nerds aren't sitting at a cattle auction or filling out the paperwork.
Do they know a guy who will look the other way and slaughter them on the down low? Is there a local farmer's market or health food store unknowingly buying fenced beef? Is it an fda approved slaughter house?
The mining gold illegally from government lands is the least of their crimes here. There is absolutely another person involved in this operation. I need answers.

Lonesome highway across San Augustin Plains. The plains extend roughly northeast-southwest, with a length of about 55 miles and a width varying between 5–15 miles. The basin is bounded on the south by the Luera Mountains and Pelona Mountain (outliers of the Black Range); on the west by the Tularosa Mountains; on the north by the Mangas, Crosby, Datil, and Gallinas Mountains; and on the east by the San Mateo Mountains.

While walking along the trails of the Table Mountain Ecological Reserve in Butte County California with my lovely bride I saw this heifer grazing near this small seasonal stream. I watched her for about 10 minutes waiting for her to give me a pose I liked and she finally obliged by getting a drink from the stream. I think it makes a wonderfully pastoral image with the spring wildflowers in bloom on the beautiful April morning.

I know there's the idea of humans being raised as a food source by like aliens or whatever, but we would make such shit livestock.
We're not very big so not a lot of meat.
We age slowly. 13+ years for us to just hit puberty and still another 5-10 for us to become full grown. Absolutely terrible for maintaining a livestock population.
We're not particularly strong. Like yeah some of us are pretty beefy but we're shit as a source of strength. We're not built to be pack or plow animals.
As a food source we'd be damn right useless to anyone that's not some string armed millennia old elf like motherfucker.
However, we are good at being pursuit predators and can be exceedingly persistent when we so desire. So if say they wanted a creature that could hunt down vermin and would be delighted to live in a cozy house with free food and attention.....
We would make great cats.
