Wolfsville, Md. (AP) - Frederick County cattle farmer Eric Fleming is offering a reward in hopes of finding who took his entire supply of bull semen.

He discovered the theft Sunday evening after returning from a day trip to his farm in Wolfsville.

The loss totaled 75,000 dollars and was Fleming's entire supply, and included the valuable semen of several prominent sires. Fleming has spread the word about the theft on Web sites of interest to cattle breeders and the Sheriff's office is investigating.

The semen was stored in six canisters that were taken from a refrigeration tank, apparently by someone who brought one of their own. Frederick County cattle farmer Eric Fleming is offering a reward \r\nin hopes of finding who took his entire supply of bull semen.
