What market? It's just parking your family cow next to hundreds of others eating chicken shit at the industrial dairy in cattle country, surrounded by poultry farms and wild animal populations. You own one of its legs so it's fine if you drink its disease milk like a magic potion to ward off evil spirits.

During the last outbreak Colorado had the first national case of human transmission. On the poultry farms making the infectious chicken shit for the dairy cows to eat, if a wild bird lands next to the flock they're immediately infected. Any infection means the whole flock is culled. Being a good progressive democratic stronghold, we of course used prison slaves from the prisons ravaged by COVID and other various health issues they don't get adequate treatment for. One of those prison slaves digging the mass graves for the chickens caught bird flu from wading through the sea of infectious corpses, then brought it back to all of his immunocompromised cellmates where it didn't mutate enough to spread to them that time.

I imagine the culling procedures will work the same on cattle farms around here. The entire colonial project in this area was exterminating the natives to give their land to cattle ranchers, so that's a cornerstone of much of the regional land distribution and economy. Those areas are the most reactionary and had the worst COVID responses, including firing the health official of the town with the main slaughterhouse for trying to acknowledge that COVID exists while threatening to secede from the state if the milquetoast liberal governor enforced the stay-at-home order.
