Seven Popular Myths about Livestock Grazing on Public Lands

CNR-0001

cnr-0001 cover

BY Jeffrey C. Mosley, E. Lamar Smith, Phil R. Ogden

December 31, 1989

By the 1990s, widespread disapproval of range policies prevailed, fueled largely by the general public's lack of knowledge about the condition of the country's rangelands. This early response from 1990 documents the need to improve citizens' understanding about livestock grazing on public lands. By addressing seven popular myths, this 12-page publication provides fact-based information of interest to sportsmen, conservationists, students, teachers and legislators, an exchange of ideas still necessary today.
