Apparently the guy owes over a million dollars in rent for grazing his cattle on federal lands for the last twenty-some years. That's the other side of the story that I haven't seen on FR.

From what I’ve seen, all the pertinent information has been available on this site.

...The feds say Bundy owes $1 million in grazing fees while he maintains he only owes $300,000...

...Cannon said Bundy racked up more than $1.1 million in unpaid grazing fees over the years while disregarding several court orders to remove his animals.

Bundy estimates the unpaid fees total about $300,000.

The BLM designated 186,909 acres of the Gold Butte off-limits for the “critical desert tortoise” population in 1998. Bundy had already lost his grazing permit five years earlier for refusing to pay fees for the land, which his family has ranched since the 1870s. The “federal grazing fee” is $1.35 per “Animal Unit Month,” or the amount of forage needed per animal, each month. Bundy said he owes roughly $300,000 in back fees, while the BLM asserts he owes over $1 million.

A 68-year-old Nevada native, Bundy has long been at the center of a battle with the Bureau of Land Management, the federal agency controlling the 150 miles of desert where the rancher’s cattle have roamed for decades. A renegade when it comes to any sort of government control, Bundy — the father of 14 children — has refused to pay BLM a dime of required grazing fees for his 900 cattle, a tab that has since reached $300,000. Bundy has fought the fee, he says, because his Mormon ancestors set up shop on the land long before the BLM formed.

The government says that Cliven Bundy owes a million.

The government is liars, faithfully emulating the head of the government, President Simba, AKA Prince Pinocchio.

Bundy says he owes $300,000.

I believe Cliven Bundy, not unprosecuted felons from the BLM, or the IRS, or the DOJ.

But, I'm just a little persnickety that way...

I believe the lands were PUBLIC lands until the government pulled the ‘endangered animal’ trick and found a tortoise for then claiming the land as theirs and no longer ‘public’.
