At the Sonoma County Fair, we pride ourselves on being out in front. We are interested in using DNA technology to address concerns anyone has about animal ownership. |
Basically, I just tried to let them know we were here and we were interested in having them. I told them they had the opportunity to come to a community that would absolutely embrace them. There is a large part of the community that mourned them when they left. |
This is not the direct result of one issue. We see it as a way to stay ahead as the competition increases for raising the fair's top animals. There's a lot of money and prestige at stake in winning a champion. |
