Ranching

It’s been a big fire season so far across the West, including in Oregon where more than 1.2 million acres have burned this season. On the eastern side of the state, the fires have left many cattle displaced or dead, leaving ranchers with significant losses.

In Nevada, cattle and wild horses sometimes compete for food because they graze the same land. That creates challenges for some ranchers, but that doesn't mean they want the horses gone.

Because calves are born wet they have to get dry, get a drink of milk, and warm up quickly. And the brutal weather has made that tough.

“For us it’s more from an agriculture point of view. It’s not about politics.”

Depends on who you ask.
