Rancher Vandalism on the Dixie National Forest

[El Mimbreno]

5. Cattle "rights"

Lots of incongruity regarding cattle and their waste in particular. If I were to camp in an "open camping" area of a National Forest and needed to poop, I would have to dig a "cat hole" 200 ft (I think) from any body of water or watercourse. Meanwhile the cows are merrily pissing and pooping away in the stream.
Ever see a cattle truck rounding a curve with "soup" sloshing out of the bottom? Is that any different from an RV owner driving down the road with the black water valve open?
And then there are grazing leases. I see cattle on BLM land that can barely support a jackrabbit. Why? Wouldn't it make sense to raise cattle in a part of the country where there is actually grass?

OK, end of rant.
