Gov. Abbott launched a free online course to certify additional New World Screwworm inspectors across Texas. This initiative empowers people, & private industry, to inspect & certify livestock movement, ensuring the safety of our cattle, wildlife, & food supply remains secure.

Here in La Pryor, Texas at Rock Creek Ranch. Joined by new Senior Advisor for New World Screwworm Preparedness John Bellinger and Southern Texas rancher Robbie, who spotted the first case and notified authorities immediately. Robbie and his family at Rock Creek Ranch are the true stars today — their vigilance made all the difference. We're looking at Case One right now: the calf is doing great and fully recovered after about nine days. Ranchers, keep your eyes on the cattle and report any cases right away. We've beaten this before, and with new tools and facilities coming online, we'll beat it again. @Screwworm_RR
