looking for a homepage

[CharlyBonifaz]

have been on a homepage lately, that shows various pictures, including those of an oxen being tied down with a long rope; have been searching for these pictures (and the homepage) desperately and cannot retrieve it.
So my question:
anyone on this board owns such a homepage or knows were I can find it again? :confused:

I should have told you all that MODA is transitioning to a new website: http://www.midwestoxdrovers.com

The old site http://www.moda.us is still up until the end of 2009.

Charly, if the photo you mention is of the big Dutch Belted ox, that is the ox after having been cast (put down by causing temporary paralysis of rear legs)using a rope to put pressure on the nerves over the spine, so that the owner could trim a hoof. The practice is historic and does not harm the ox. Someone has to keep holding the rope to keep pressure against the nerves until you want to allow the ox to get up again.

thanks for explaining, I knew the method, but it was so much easier to explain to someone else with the pictures 😎
thanks!

Charly, I didn’t even know those were on the web! That is Bill’s big old ox that he took on several Oregon Trail reenactments. Nice set of photos. Thanks.
