Herd Observation Deck.

The Fort Worth Stockyards is a National Historic District.

The Chisolm Trail was a major route for Cattlemen moving their Herds from South Texas to northern markets in the mid through the late 1800s.  After the Railroad arrived in Fort Worth in 1876, the City's Stockyards became the hub for the Texas Cattle Industry.

Crowds are gathering along

East Exchange Avenue.

Here comes the Herd!

Their long horns keep

them spaced out.

Is this Nature's Social

Distancing?

Everyone takes pictures.
