We also work to preserve and promote wildlife through projects such as water development, livestock control and controlled access to hunting.  We host a tremendous variety of insect life, birds, small mammals such as Richardson's ground squirrels, weasels, badgers, fox, coyotes, and large mammals such as mule and white tail deer.

We are continually expanding our livestock control measures to improve the resource base and protect riparian areas.  We have developed several experimental models of solar fencers, and solar water pumps designed to better distribute livestock across our landbase, while keeping them out of the riparian zone.  Water Pumping

While we work to ensure the comfort of our cowherd, we do not confine them over the winter.  This provides benefits to our resource base, as it means we graze when the plants are not growing, thus eliminating overgrazing.  It also means that our cowherd is spread out over a wider area, evenly distributing waste and cycling nutrients, rather than creating a concentration of waste in an area such as a corral.

We try to work with nature, timing our calving season to the arrival of new grass and matching our genetics to our management and our resource base.

We also work with a variety of range professionals including public lands, AESA and PFRA and have offered educational field days at our operation as well as private tours.  We usually learn more from these events than our visitors.
