Availability of cattles in that area is the main concern.

It is important because of the enviroment. The animals, the air quality all need to be very clean. If an area doesnt stay clean, the enviroment will become nasty

They would have to be better then the currant setup, hell farm animals could run the county better.

One of the problems with this comparison is that cows and chickens can eat things that humans cannot.  So the cows on a cattle ranch can be raised on native grasses on open range, which could not be utilized by humans in that form.  \n\nIn addition to the cattle, other organisms such as prairie dogs, badgers, burrowing owls, black-footed ferrets, prairie chicken, swift fox and all variety of insects that evolved over millions of years to live alongside the bison herds that once covered the North American prairie can survive on the open rangeland.  The cattle can take the ecological niche that was once inhabited by the bison.\n\nFor cereal crops, this open rangeland is plowed under and converted to monoculture fields that are inimical to the native plants and animals.  Pesticides and irrigation are required to grow these crops, pulling water from irreplaceable groundwater sources, rather than renewable rivers and lakes that can be used in livestock production.\n\nThe monoculture crop fields are highly susceptible to insect pests, as there are no predatory insects that can survive in the crop fields, and the monoculture makes outbreaks of pest species much larger and more numerous than they would normally be.  This requires the use of pesticides to keep the crops usable, as well as vast quantities of fertilizers to replenish the soils leached of nutrients by year after year of all the nutritive value being taken from the field and sent off to make bread and twinkies.\n\nSo ecologically, meat production is much better for the environment than cereal crops.  Eating a cow may mean the death of one cow, but eating vegetarian kills the entire prairie ecosystem, which is the most endangered ecosystem on the planet (less than 1% of original native grassland still exists in the world).\n\nSo eat a steak for the planet!!

I'm pretty big on species protection, but that being said, I don't really have a problem with the regional lifting of protected status. The ultimate goal of listing a species as threatened or endangered is to protect and manage the population so that it can recover to a point where it is viable enough to be de-listed. No?  Grizzlies are also a species that have political significance, because they are big, potentially dangerous, require large territories, and will wander into residential areas and/or begin to kill livestock if their population gets too large. Around Yellowstone this is beginning to happen, and people are starting to get angry. In order to keep the public from becoming anti-grizzly to a point where it affects the recovery effort elsewhere, grizzlies are going to have to be carefully controlled in areas where the population is healthy. However unfortunate for individual bears, population control is a necessary evil.  As for the comment about poaching: Poaching is illegal whether the bears are protected or not, and people who are going to poach bears will do it regardless of whether the bears are protected.

Have you checked with the agricultural Board in Calgary? They should be able to help.

Holsteins make up the vast majority of dairy cattle for their ability to adapt to confinement methods. Calves are normally 90-100 pounds at birth; weanling weights generally aren't taken on dairy but as yearlings at about 800# they are bred, with adult cows not uncommon at the 1500# mark. Bulls from 1800# to just over a ton aren't uncommon. They can be black and white or red and white. \n\nAyreshire cows are more like 1200# at maturity - they were developed to be efficient grazers so body weight wasn't as big of a factor. \nGuernseys are similar to Ayrshires. \n\nBrown Swiss and Milking Shorthorn have more variance because of their dual purpose background. Swiss cattle fall between the Ayreshire and Holstein in size with bulls not uncommon at 1700#+ and cows 1,000-1200. Milking Shorthorns are very slightly smaller...not that many years ago, relatively speaking, they were a single breed - shorthorns. A demand for specialization divided milking and beef cattle into breeding for different traits \n\nJerseys are the smallest breed - calves 50-60#, adult cows 800-1200# bulls 1600-1700# \nThe loss of farms that use grazing is threatening all but the Holstein and Jersey.

Poor guinea pigs.\nWhat they need is a nice big field full of clover and dandelions and no nasty owner to control and confuse them....

Good thing, yes.  But on the endangered species list.  There are lots of fundamentalists who would seek to tie the two pretty closely together.

All it has to do is not have a massive penalty, it can be totally useless provided that the population is not very strongly stressed or it uses little extra energy.  If it's a liability it will tend to be selected against but something that's useless doesn't necessarilly put the organism in much more risk.

1. Preserve their native habitats (that means preserving enough land for the space the large animals of the area need) For example large cats are estimated to need a roaming area of 100 square miles.  \n2. Stop the hunting of the endangered animal, by men and introduced predator species.\n3. Limit the number of competitors for the same resources of the endangered animal.\n4.  Find ways to improve genetic diversity in limited populations.

The natural environment is full of wide sparkly rivers and waterfalls and lushes green plants with a plentifly amount of animals.So behind all that there is hurt. Animal populations are low. Plants are be torn down.And the water is getting trashed.

any fox dens I've come across are in easy digging ground like sand. There territory is about a square mile But will travel futher and move for good if hunting grounds become unproductive. Where's the meat

in the east, you have flocks of sheep tended by sheep farmers\n\nin the west, you have a million sheep managed by big concerns
