If you know why it's a downer, no problem. Had a young springer at my parents farm last year that went down, injured her back legs when another jumped on her. Dad called up the guys that used to do our dehorning, their son has a butcher business on the side and has a pretty nice setup. We trailered her out there, got her back in hamburger a couple weeks later.
Found out from them that she broke her hip, and there was no way she would have gotten up again. NO reason she couldn't be turned into beef for human consumsion, other than the people who got paraniod about Mad Cow.
Used to be we could call cow ambulance. They would come get her, take her still breathing and pay us a little for the useable beef.
Now the only option is stick a $20 under her tail, and call the mink ranch.
