Did your family own land in Yellowstone in the 1800’s like Bundy did in Nevada?
My understanding, is the federal government “reclassified” this grazing land as habitat for the desert tortoises. They still billed him for grazing there, but told him that he had to move his cattle. See more here:

No, but the Bundy family didn't own the land in question in the 1800s. The Bundy family has never owned the land in question, just as I have never owned Yellowstone.

They were still billing him for grazing his cattle there because . . . he was still grazing his cattle there.
