AUSTIN, Texas -- The University of Texas says longhorn steer mascot Bevo XIV has been diagnosed with cancer and will retire.
The university said Tuesday that the longhorn steer, whose given name is Sunrise Studly, was preliminarily diagnosed last week with bovine leukemia virus. The diagnosis was confirmed by several veterinarians.
Bevo XIV began his tenure as the Texas mascot at the age of 2 in 2004.
