People think when cattle are removed from rangeland the wildlife flourishes. That is totally false, wildlife depend on water provided to cattle to survive, cattle have been there long enough to become a big part of that eco-system and issues other than water come into play (example, turtles eating cattle dung) when they are removed the wildlife does not flourish, instead much of the wildlife must relocate or die. When large areas are cleared of cattle relocation of wildlife becomes more and more difficult.
