Authorities are set to execute a plan to remove some wild livestock in the Gila Wilderness in New Mexico as the animals have acted aggressively towards visitors.
Rio Verde, Arizona, resident Cody Reim explains the 'plight' of his community as he fights to restore the water supply.as part of an effort to eliminate feral cows in the Gila Wilderness.
In this photo provided by Robin Silver, a feral bull is seen along the Gila River in the Gila Wilderness in southwestern New Mexico, on July 25, 2020. Ranchers, however, opposed the decision and argued the plan to shoot cows from a helicopter should be regarded as animal cruelty. They said the action violates federal regulations and will result in a problematic situation in dealing with the left-behind carcasses.Ranching industry groups have also expressed concern the action could set a precedent across the West, especially as rural neighbors have vacated parcels because of worsening drought.
He has pointed to a recent New Mexico Livestock Board directive that would allow neighboring permittees to gather and herd the cattle out, but access is limited with snow on the ground."Easy is not an exception to their own rules. Frustration is not an exception to the rules," Paterson said."Our society should be better than this. We can be more creative and do it a better way where you’re not wasting an economic resource.
