Ranch hands struggled to dehorn 104 bulls to allow safe shipment in electric light express cars. The effort used corrals roping and snubbing to a post, then sawed off antlers. Officials hoped to begin the first ten cars soon, while noting the work was harsher than typical range roundup. The herd was originally started by the US Biological Survey and grew beyond bison range. The Gilt Breeding and Grazing Association contracted to take the herd and bear transport costs.
