If only they would do more to get rid of the damn wild horses and donkey's decimated the landscape

I so very wish that it was this simple. Most of our beef is not staying here

Glad I didnt have to prove you wrong here.

and the beef that is, it is being marked up and middle men are raking the profits.

An so are the producers. Beef continues on an all time high trend.

We are way off topic here but I personally think ranchers get way too much credit for how “hard” they work. A significant portion of them in my community are constantly playing that card as if nobody else in the community has ever got dirt on their hands before.
Comparing it to a guy starting a construction company from scratch or a mechanics shop or any other trade from the ground up, ranching looks pretty nice.
Not to mention the generational wealth to start off.
And before people loose their minds, I have friends that are ranchers and I buy all my beef local.
But yeah, not that has anything to do with poison on public land.

Do you understand inheritance tax and how it affects ranches?

Yeah I’d say you don’t know much about generational ranches and wealth… my wife is 6th generation pioneer / ranching family from northern Az, they are extremely poor, hence why the ranch went from 6500 acres to a remaining 700, and is hanging on by a thread. Ironically her Dad’s side of the family are in construction and they now have a giant ranch because they are fantastic places to hide money and write off taxes but they are not fantastic places to make money most of the time… a bad year or two and you might be cooked

All the more reason to end the subsidies, but that is not the point of this thread. The topic has to do with the use of cyanide traps. I challenge you to give one example of how and why they should be on public land?

Also, why have grazing prices not been adjusted? Why are landowners ruining public ground? Why are hunters defending sheep producers when they impact the species we hunt more than any predator ever could. As someone who grew up on a farm and was a government trapper. These pity the landowner/coyotes are the devil posts are clearly depicting why folks vote Democrat.
