Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Cargill, Inc. is voluntarily recalling 100,640 units of various animal feeds, including cattle breeder cubes, grower pellets, and deer/elk supplements, sold in Texas. These products may contain dangerously elevated levels of minerals—specifically manganese, zinc, copper, iron, iodine, and selenium—along with excessive vitamin D3. Consumers should immediately stop using these feeds as they can cause serious health issues or death in livestock and wildlife. If you purchased these products in Texas, you should return any remaining stock to the place of purchase for a full refund.

Risk

The elevated levels of multiple minerals and vitamin D3 can lead to acute toxicity in cattle, deer, and elk. Depending on the specific animal and mineral concentration, this can cause organ damage, metabolic failure, or death.
