    Our narrow trail was blocked totally by two wild cows with calves while we were mule packing in the Marble Mountain Wilderness of California. I've always had bears and lion on my mind, but never considered the danger of wild cows. Let me tell you, those two cows were wild fierce. Luckily we had dogs with us. Being domestic dogs that had been around cattle, it even took the dogs a few minutes to figure out the situation. I have great respect for the people who handle these wild ones.

    As far as the youtube series go. I vote to up the length per episode. You definitely have plenty of content for a 45-60 minute episode and I think the viewers will only increase. Add more b roll if needed but with Cals research and knowledge I doubt it would be necessary. Heck throw in a " me and the crew went to so and so diner and it was good but not as good as.." segment. Still entertaining

    I went to an Adopt a Mustang event. Before the draw began for the horses they put on a demonstration of “tame” Mustangs in the sale arena with people riding them to inspire people I reckon. One of the mustangs started bucking and the rest followed suit. All riders got bucked off. It was like a rodeo event. It was hilarious. 😂

    I went on a feral cattle round up in a FL swamp. It was wild and wooly brahma action.. I was riding a three year old foundation quarter horse. His grit is probably why I survived. I’ve never rode a horse since who had the natural cow instinct and the agility to duck under ropes like him. When I bragged on the horse to the guy who owned him, he said you should’ve seen his momma, she could turn through herself.

Ringers will use dirt bikes, buggies and helicopters to herd the cattle into large fenced funnels with a gate at the end. I encourage anyone to check out the show Outback Ringer, or just look up what I’m talking about on KZread. Some of the best and ballsiest heli pilots in he world - you won’t be disappointed.

    Maybe this was mentioned and I missed it - but why can’t New Mexico hand out depredation tags for these animals? If they’re in areas where grazing is not feasible for other animals, I can’t imagine there would be any domestic cattle to be confused with and accidentally shot, and there’s no federal protection on cattle (that I’m aware of), so seems like the state could make a buck or two on tags and licenses and also have the animals removed and harvested.
