    Lots of live cattle exported to the US, largely because of not enough kill/processing capacity in parts of Canada

      Little out of touch in last 10yrs, not sure on border status to other countries right now. Canada has been a source for breeding stock for a good chunk of the world. My area has sent lots to South America, Cuba, Mexico, China and Russia.

      My cows are just commercials, but I have sent live sheep to Brazil, Australia and Mexico.

      As far as logistics they send literally boat loads of 5000hd of fat cattle from South America to Saudia Arabia.
