I live about 30 minutes from there. You should see the really big ones in that herd. They are considerably larger than the ones out west. I'm not going to read the article or argue about the weight, but they are big. No pens, all free-ranging herd. I also know they guy that found the one that tried to jump the fence and didn't survive. Stop being jealous.
I'm not sure if the links work but here are some examples.
