Nevada Ranching Challenges: Record Low Cattle Numbers, Wildfires, and Border Cattle

Nevada rancher Hank Vogler joins Trent Loos on Rural Route to break down the beef industry's record-low cattle numbers, the worst since 1952. Hank exposes how environmental regulations and federal land management are crippling livestock grazing and slowing wildfire response across Nevada, where 70% of livestock have already been removed. The two swap dramatic weather stories, from flooding rain to crop-damaging wind, before diving into a wild wildfire account involving illegal immigrants harvesting pine nuts. Hank also shares firsthand frustration with federal firefighting bureaucracy. Trent previews the historic reopening of the Mexican border to cattle imports in Douglas, Arizona.
