You people are uninformed extremist. How much experience do any of you have with cattle? Our country has the best beef industry with the hardest working individuals behind it. If you're gonna criticize how it is done, then you go pull baby calves and carry them through snow at 4 in the morning. A rancher works 365 days a year. Please get informed before you comment, and seeing a cow in real life not only on Animal Planet wouldn't hurt either.

@theCountrymusicgur:I wrote of nation wide free range laws,I just happen to reside in Az on 36ac that borders 640ac of state-grazing-lease land.

Regardless how important ranchers,farmer,miners,oil drillers or any other group of industrues are to modern society,laws should be universal. Despite how important their business is: law is law

If the rancher stressed out the elk to a point of a decrease of population,you can bet the sport hunters would be protesting and G&F would respond accordingly.

@jscanyon Yeah...was Gandhi even a rancher? And why are you listing off Arizona's state laws when all three of these ranches are in Montana? Yes, ranchers and farmers are very important and in some cases they should be above the laws. Without them you wouldn't have food or clothes.

@SuperMarvinjames If you think you do not have enough rights read about the rights the working class have in other countries, or how women are treated in other countries.

The issue with the elk is not of rights but of laws. Harassing an animal is not alowed by law, but ranchers are alowed to ignore that law- that is not ok. You are protected by law from harassment, what if your boss was alowed to ignore that law?

Correct about Gandhi, the caste system is wrong and cruel.

@ponyboyismybf You are right, but if he had killed them he would be finned for "hunting" out of hunting season, poaching or killing a game animal with out a tag. He would be in huge trouble with the Dept of Fame and Fish.

[SuperMarvinjames]

@jscanyon It seems as if everybody and everything has more rights than the working man. You are quoting Gandhi who was from a nation with a caste system where human beings are treated like crap, Maybe he should have done more to do away with that system than worrying about how cows and rats are treated.

Of couse they generate much income having 6,000 cattle brings in alot of money enough to afford a helicopter

[ponyboyismybf]

@jscanyon at least they are just herding them away not killing them. It's his job to feed and raise cattle not Elk
