Uncommon card · No. 167781

Cattle raiding is the act of stealing live cattle, often several or many at once. In Australia, such stealing is often referred to as duffing and the perpetrator as a duffer. In parts of the country, however, especially in Queensland, the practice is known as poddy-dodging and the perpetrator as a poddy-dodger. In North America, especially in the Western cowboy culture, cattle theft is dubbed rustling and one who engages in it is a rustler.
