If the cattle is to be owned by the receiving guild or person, the cattle should be added after transferring ownership, or if ownership is already transferred, the cattle should be removed from the ranch and added back in.

Tearing Down

A ranch can probably not be torn down while there are still cattle inside. Ask a GM for help if the ranch looks empty, but the window says there are still cattle inside. The ranch needs to recount its cattle.
