300 million acres of public land in the West, equal to 3 Californias, are leased to ranchers. Cattle grazing is subsidized at $0.5 billion per year. Cows destroy and pollute rivers and springs, devastate plant and tree life, and compete out other animals.
Thanks to Johnny Cash for a clip from "Ghost Riders"
