    FW Student with Questions for Cattle Ranchers

    Right, you can do whatever you want to do with your land because it's literally yours!! I'm not the person to find a job to manage people's land, that's not my career path. Even if I choose to do so, I don't have the knowledge and that would take yearrrs to learn and experience.

    FW Student with Questions for Cattle Ranchers

    Hi redrobin, being from the city I don't know what ranchers have to deal with, so I can't say much. I would assume there's no time/money to care for wildlife.

    Hey everyone, My name is Julia and I'm a 4th year student majoring in fisheries and wildlife sciences. For my capstone class, my group is working on a paper about how agricultural producers balance between food production with wildlife conservation. We are looking for cattle ranchers in Oregon...
