I thought this was interesting, but a sad truth. There's a link within the article that might help out too. Hope this works and good luck with that research paper... 
Link: the cowboy libertarian...

one more thing... i'm sure you probably read Range magazine already, but if not, check out their website www.rangemagazine.com and go to "issues". then you can look at past issues and articles and get a ton of really good information. I did my high school senior research paper on public lands grazing and got 90+ percent of my information from Range. Good stuff. - Re: Urbanization & Decline of American Cattle Ranching

Check out the Western Legacy Alliance they are leading the fight against Marvels group and other anti-ranching groups. They are online. - Re: Urbanization & Decline of American Cattle Ranching

If you want enouph fuel for ten papers go to Western Watershed Project (John Marvel) or The Larch Foundation (Andy Kerr) Take a look at the lies and untruths and half truths you will find there. These people are bent on the distruction of our beloved life style. They are connected to powerful people and they can get things done ie; The Steens mountain - Roaring springs ranch fiasco of a few years ago... guess who won that one? There only agenda is to screw things up do not be fooled It's not about the land at all, because reasonable people are open to compromises. They are all about the fight and nothing more, but they are shrewd. OK LW "go get 'em" and have no mercy!!
PS. I would like to read your paper when you finish it. - Re: Urbanization & Decline of American Cattle Ranching

on November 4, 2009, 8:43 am, in reply to "Urbanization & Decline of American Cattle Ranching"Youo may want to expand your topic to include such environmental groups as "Western Watersheds"
Do a google on them and be prepared to read your butt off......
You should also take a look at environmental legislation that indirectly removes cattle from the range: i.e. endangered species listings, programs that restore riparian habitats etc....
While you are at it google the Center for Biodiversity...
Urbanization is only a small factor in theh loss of grazing lands.....
It's the mis-informed urbanites that make or break us....... Ballot Box Biology is the method that enviros use to promote their programs to the uninformed.
Then if you really want to puke.... google the Wildlands Project... that should just make your day....
