It is a ballad that tells the story of a young girl named Tibbs who defies her father and takes a motherless calf to raise.
With a strength that belied her age and her size
Tibbs lifted the calf tenderly.
She walked to her horse, placed the calf cross his back,
mounted and rode from the lea.
Tres Cruces is the ranch beside the Rio Grande where Tibbs, her family, and the vaqueros ride herd on Braford cattle.
The cattle on Tres Cruces
are classic Braford bred:
straight backs and legs, deep chests,
and high, well-balanced heads.
From ranch life to rodeo arena the story of THE LITTLEST BULL and the girl who loves him will touch your heart. It is an authentic tale of triumph for all.
