Big bovine fans will be pleased with the news that the Henry Luehr's giant walk-in bull has been moved from Pettibone, North Dakota 40 miles to Buchanan. The bull had been steadily decaying since Henry's death in 1996, and widow Elaine made clear her displeasure with continuing streams of Pettibonophiles tramping around her property.

Luehr's son Raymond transported the Bull to a new site next to the Chief's Bar on Highway 281 (northwest of Jamestown), where it will be refurbished. The fate of Henry Luehr's most ambitious construction, the Pettibone Pagoda, is unknown. It was rumored that Raymond, experienced in moving grain elevators, would also transport the Pagoda to a spot where it would be appreciated.
