How about I rent your house for 50 years and decide 25 years in that you don’t really own the house and I stop paying rent? I’m not moving out though because I’m willing to pay your ex-wife.

There is no danger to the Desert Tortoise. This is all a ruse to get ranchers off this land. Once they are off this land, they will not be able to stay in business and will be forced to sell out, which has been the intention all along. And then they will move on to the next location, and the next, and the next, until all farms/ranches/ etc. are under their control.
