A Chesley farm has been fined for sending a downed animal to Brussels Livestock for auction.
The Holstein cow was shipped to market in June of 2014.
It was deemed a downed animal and euthanized when a veterinarian on-site found it was suffering from a twisted stomach.
Schriek Farms Limited was charged under the Food Safety and Quality Act.
The company pled guilty and was fined 15 hundred dollars in a court appearance last month in Walkerton.
