EAGLE PASS, Texas — For one Texas ranch manager, dealing with the daily trespasses of migrants through the property is becoming almost unbearable. Ben Binnion has managed ranches near the border area for a decade. He explained to Breitbart Texas how 2022 is far worse than normal.
The ranch Binnion manages is 15 miles from the Rio Grande, but the distance is no barrier to the hundreds of migrants moving through on a weekly basis. Migrants traverse the property in hopes of avoiding a nearby Border Patrol highway checkpoint. He described to Breitbart Texas the impacts to the land and ranch operation left behind.
To document the traffic, Binnion installed cameras usually intended for monitoring wild game. Photos depict more than 100 groups crossing the ranch in the first few weeks of August. He frequently posts the images on social media platforms to generally raise awareness.
The migrant groups range from small parties to several dozen in number. The high summer temperatures have contributed to multiple medical emergencies and migrant deaths on the property this summer.
Binnion praised the efforts of the few Border Patrol agents able to respond to at least seven distress calls per day. “The agents on the ranch will work to apprehend the groups when they are not answering 911 emergency calls, but they are so overwhelmed by the volume and they can’t chase them all,” he said. Ben says 19 deceased migrants have been discovered on the property since January. “We usually see three at the most during a normal year.”

Fence off the area and then put in lions. Lots of free food for them if anybody jumps the fence.
How quickly would the cartels shoot the bull if it interferes with their trafficking?

Point taken let’s use Nateman’s idea and make it a large cat preserve. Cats are more sneaky and quiet. When they pounce they pounce.
The number 223 comes to mind!
After shooting 10 or 12 women one of which is pregnant and at least is carrying a dead babe in arms, the migration trail will be closed off
Fences are routinely destroyed in South Texas. Farmers and ranchers in Brooks County are rebuilding them constantly.
Can’t all of those illegals be housed in the DC jails forever for trespassing?
Meritless bGarland says under his JustUs the laws are equally applied.
I can’t imagine how maddening this must be. We’ve found just a couple trespassers on our farm, mushroom or deer hunting without permission. It’s like waking up and there’s a stranger standing there in your house. Property rights around here are nearly sacrosanct. To live this nightmare every day with no end in sight and nobody in charge gives a rip.
SMH
He just needs 10,000 rattle snakes on his property with snake fencing to keep them near the border
Wild boars fenced in the cut through path. Bear traps.
Look at all of those people who say they want to be Americans carrying American flags!
A major disservice was done regarding this article. That is the absence of any pictures exposing the size & scope of the trash problem. Because pictures I have seen look like pictures of a legal trash dump site, but they aren’t legal trash dump sites at all.
Interesting video thanks for posting. I knew those hogs were a problem but did not know how bad.
How about electric fences.

“How about electric fences.”
Maybe they have.....
Land mines and Claymores on land, high voltage on the wall and fences, razor wire anchored on the river bottom at wadeable locations. That’ll slow them down some.
Call in the Dutton”s
since when can’t land owners shoot to protect their property or why should they pay taxes?
