ok, so was it a cow, as in beef cow or something else??? If it's an exotic, talk to the land owner and if he gives permission fire away!!!!! South Texas is good cattle country and as long as they are not overgrazing the place, they actually benefit the land for deer, just have to protect your feeders if they like corn-de-la-crème!!!

So let me get this straight, we are supposed to first inspect the animal for visible markings, then once identified, contact our neighbors, the ones who moved in decades after we had been managing the area for native game and essentially killed the deer movement in several of our pastures by high fencing and creating a zoo, to come romp around our property and corral their purportedly "wild" animal?
Got it.

Got it. You might want to check the laws on this. Just saying. Posting on a public forum about this "exotic cow" and eminent death would have been the last thing I would have done. Just saying. SSS......

If you happen to shoot an animal that is protected and the wrong people find out you might regret the SSS approach.
Just to make sure that it is done thoroughly, I go both ways.

I have inherited a white Fallow doe in the last couple of weeks. Hopefully one of my hunters that are coming will remove her from my property.

Found this on tpwd site Frequently Asked Questions Hunting Are exotic animals that happen to show up on my property fair game? It depends! If an exotic animal has a visible tag, brand, or other identifying mark, a person should contact the local sheriff's office and report the exotic animal. Texas estray laws apply to marked exotic animals and the local sheriff is responsible for their enforcement. Exotic animals that are not marked and are free ranging that have wandered onto private property may be hunted with a hunting license, provided the owner of the property allows hunting. However, if an exotic animal appears on your property and you know that it is privately owned, then the ethical approach is to contact the owner. https://tpwd.texas.gov/landwater/land/habitats/faq/law_enforcement/hunt16.phtml It is interesting that TPWD says that you "should" and not that you are required to contact the sheriff. My daughter worked as a dispatcher for a small town, their sheriff's office would not even go to a call about a loose exotic animal.

My eyes aren't what they used to be, so I'd have to shoot it to be able to read the ear tag. That does not apply to cows or donkeys, though there are days when I have to struggle with that.
