Canadian Western Agribition officials, and the owner of a prized Charolais cow found dead in its stall during the event are waiting for autopsy results.

Chief executive officer Jason Pollock said a two-year-old died in its stall Nov. 26.

The animal was taken to Saskatoon for a post-mortem examination but results were not known before Western Producer deadlines Nov. 29.

“Once the autopsy results are known, we can proceed with any action deemed necessary from an animal health perspective,” he said.
