Yes too bad the wild horses seem to be gone except for parts of Nevada. Love to hear otherwise.
It's sometimes hard to separate romantic heritage from reality. I have no desire for wild horses roaming my area. None.

I do understand where you are coming from. There is however quite a bit of wild lands at least out west where animals roam no more. They get in our way I guess.

Yep - humans do not like much getting in the way.

You guys have wild pigs?

Wild pigs are nothing but trouble.

Not yet in our area in Mo but can be found in Florida. In fact, only Texas has more wild hogs than Florida.

The state says the pig is not native but was introduced by DeSoto in 1530’s.

Some surprising statistics:

Here are the 10 states with the highest number of cows:
  • Texas (4,655,000)
  • Oklahoma (2,150,000)
  • Missouri (2,059,000)
  • Nebraska (1,941,000)
  • South Dakota (1,818,000)
  • Kansas (1,529,000)
  • Montana (1,448,000)
  • Kentucky (1,017,000)
Horses are used here in limited quantities. Most ranching is done with a 3/4T or 1T 4x4 truck with a flat bale bed on the back or FWA tractor with bale stabber on front and back. Every rancher has a couple GN stock trailers. Every rancher's truck has GN Ball in the bed.
The smart guys at Texas A&M said that more beef cattle are raised within 150 miles radius of Bryan-College Station, Texas than anywhere else in the US.

Texas A&M tries very hard. I guess it ain’t easy being the little brother.

I have 5 sisters.
