• Family Ranch Hanson Part 1
• Family Ranch Hanson Part 2

This lupine induced deformity plagues central Washington ranches sporadically with serious outbreaks occurring about once a decade when upwards of 50 percent of a ranchʼs calf crop can be deformed. Clive Gay, retired from WSUʼs College of Veterinary Medicine, gives an overview of Crooked Calf Syndrome in Washington and discusses year to year and species variations in lupine toxicity. Roy Clinesmith, who ranches in the middle of Washingtonʼs crooked calf country, describes outbreaks on his ranch and how he attempts to steer clear of them. Kip Panter of USDAʼs Poisonous Plant Research Laboratory in Logan Utah describes the history of Crooked Calf research at PPRL and the important research findings regarding lupine toxins, how they work, animal behavior and taste preferences for lupine, and strategies to reduce Crooked Calf Syndrome.
