The cattle numbers contained in Mr. Favre’s report were based on
tally sheets he compiled in counting the cattle. These tally
sheets disclose the particular location and the cattle manager.
The majority of the tally sheets further contain columns in which
to record the tag number, tag color, sex, color, brand, class,
etc., of individual cattle. However, in some of the tally
sheets, Mr. Favre did not record any of this information, but he
recorded only total numbers of cattle and type of cattle.
Further, as reflected by the cattle tag numbers that are recorded
on Mr. Favre’s tally sheets, there were numerous instances where
he counted the same cattle more than once. Indeed, on brief,
petitioners concede there were duplications but argue the
duplication rate to be only 9.6 percent. Petitioners thus assert
there were still a total of 23,689 cattle (the 26,205 total
cattle Mr. Favre determined were present, less a 9.6-percent
discount).
