Ranch News

Glenn and Melanie spent much of last week in Colorado, speaking at several events about our experience coexisting with wolves in a nonlethal manner. On the far right is wildlife conservationist Suzanne Asha Stone, co-founder of the Wood River Wolf Project and a pioneer in nonlethal strategies for wolf coexistence. She’s had many years of experience studying wolves and helping livestock producers implement these strategies to keep their stock safe while living peacefully alongside wolf populations.

A lot of thought goes into the proper selection of supplemental salt for our animals. Far more than just simple sodium, it is a conduit for many essential trace minerals. It might not be cheap, but a good livestock salt like Josh is distributing here can dramatically improve the overall health of the herd. Photo credit Josh Whitling.
