    How does one get into cattle hauling it seems like it's owner operator territory. Granted I need a years experience first. I'm just looking into other options for the long haul

    Most bullhaulers are O/O's. Some have more than one truck and will hire drivers. Its a very tricky niche to get into. You can visit livestockloads.com and they used to have an area where people would post driver positions. I don't know if they do anymore, but browse around and see what you find. Good luck.

    I've seen Hogan trucks and ads in my area for company livestock haulers. Personally, it's kinda weird seeing those new Hogan aero trucks hauling a bull wagon.

    One of their recruiters spams the jobs section of Livestock Network about once a week. Seven seperate listings every time.

    Poor little babies. Don't haul them. Freezing cold and intense heat in a trailer with no heat or A/C being transported to their concentration camps to be tortured, abused and finally murdered.
