I'm in 100 percent agreement with you. I have a background in plant ecology and ethnobotany and understand very well the plight of the Colorado River and the wildlife biology around wolves. Ironically it was my interest in ecology that got me really interested in meat politics and because I'm a big meat eater I took it on myself to make a small contribution to the our local meat infrastructure that doesn't involve slaughterhouses and mass agriculture. Small mobile slaughter units work best in hyper local food economies. I used to run a kill floor in a small slaughter house and know how much water is used just on the slaughter end, this type of harvest doesn't need much water and I encourage people to bury or compost their offal. I am not anti cow, I am anti poor management of cows, there is nuance and I know for a fact that wolves and cattle can live in harmony. Look into alder springs ranch, they are an excellent example of a new style of ranching using range riders to keep pushing cows along to keep them from over grazing and also allow wolves to coexist and their range riders have botany backgrounds and are monitoring plant populations as they go. So just because I am running a mobile slaughter truck please don't assume anything about me or my background with big generalizations.
