what? how are they stuck with anything. its a few cattle wandering over several thousand acres of desert land that just kinda sits there.

they came up with the 'cattle fee' to run off all the ranchers (which they did) except Bundy.

when the chinese solar farm goes up, they have to have an equal offset to match. they can't very well do that if there's a few hundred head of cattle roaming around out there somewhere.

do you know how REMOTE the desert land is in nevada???

i do. i spent some time there. there is *NOTHING* out there...for what seems like hundreds and hundreds of miles.

if you think the idea that a few cattle that wander into the 'government side' of this EMPTINESS and step on a TURTLE is cause for the BLM to swoop in with guns and round up this guy's cattle, then you really do drink the government koolaid.

this is politics plain and simple. ranchers don't play politics very well.

You didn't answer the question.

If the federal government wants to use the land for something else (endangered species offset, or whatever), is the federal government stuck with the rancher until the rancher decides to stop using the land?

I understand that, which is what my question addresses.
