On July 12, 2005, the Minnesota Board of Animal Health in conjunction with the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) announced the confirmation of a tuberculosis infected beef cattle herd in Roseau County. This is the first positive herd identified in Minnesota since 1971, when the state was declared free from tuberculosis.
