ABSTRACT:
Conventional cattle gates in cattle chutes and the like are manually actuated by one operator when the head of an animal is in position and the animal is urged into the gate area by another operator. This is time consuming and often frightens and/or harms the animal. The present device does not operate until the animal's head is positioned correctly at which time the head triggers the mechanism which closes rapidly and gently around the animal's neck and holds the animal firmly for the necessary treatment such as de-horning, inoculation, blood tests and the like.
