I could literally watch Cal in the Field episodes all day. Eloquently shedding light on interesting parts of life most of us will never experience.
I'm the exact opposite. Cal puts me to sleep.
@@johnjoman1634 I expect yer the type of guy that picks up the acoustic guitar while the party is going and plays a tepid cover of wagon wheel. Looks at the hosts as they bow you out, then fist pump yourself on the way to your car, knowing you killed the party.
Great video Cal, loved it!
Not really the talkative type, are they? Sometimes that can be a pleasant situation.
Cal seems like a great dude to sit and crack into a few cold ones with. Life goal. Keep up the great work man!
Our narrow trail was blocked totally by two wild cows with calves while we were mule packing in the Marble Mountain Wilderness of California. I've always had bears and lion on my mind, but never considered the danger of wild cows. Let me tell you, those two cows were wild fierce. Luckily we had dogs with us. Being domestic dogs that had been around cattle, it even took the dogs a few minutes to figure out the situation. I have great respect for the people who handle these wild ones.
Love these shows just from a gear head point of view. Looking at how the best of the best wear, carry and sort their tools, gear and protective equipment is a education in itself.
More, more, more Cal in the field Please !!!
Awesome Cal.... I've owned cattle most of my life and I've had a few that damn sure acted wild... Crazy stuff buddy...The job that Cody and these guys do with these buck wild cattle absolutely blows my mind. Thx!
LOL @ cal hittin that beef with his baseball hat @14:37
This is Great. Cal you Explained it and shared it for what it is. TY. Old school Cowboys.
How about an episode on wild horses and burros in Nevada?
You sir have changed my mind about hunting and I don’t mean just in the sense it’s a occasional hobby if you eat what you kill your not only becoming a part of the food chain again as we once was you have taken us back to our roots and that is something very special to achieve congratulations sir love from the UK
such a great show thanks for bringing up childhood dreams.
Very well done. Watching how they did their jobs catching them brought lots of respect out from me. I raise cattle and have cowboyed my whole life (I'm 61), plus I'm a hunter. This was a pleasure to watch.
The feral horse problem in the west should get some coverage. They do a unprecedented amount of damage, but are a federally protected invasive species. Great work covering this, though!
I went to an Adopt a Mustang event. Before the draw began for the horses they put on a demonstration of “tame” Mustangs in the sale arena with people riding them to inspire people I reckon. One of the mustangs started bucking and the rest followed suit. All riders got bucked off. It was like a rodeo event. It was hilarious. 😂
"wild" Horses and jackrabbit eat more grass than cattle do in a lot of western states.
It's sad but horses are an invasive species and need to be managed but horses are also as friendly, loyal, and smart as dogs making it a difficult task ethically
Longer episodes please!!!!
Fascinating. Thanks for sharing this story.
Glad to see this work is still happening in Los Alamos. 👍🏼
Everything that Cody says, is the most cowboy thing ever ! Great episode ! Thank you.
Haven't even watch it all yet. Cal is awesome.
Top notch job. So proud of my NM life that was so well presented
2:47 This reminds me of Arlo Guthrie talking about the giant humongous clams .... "I'm not talking about sitting under the water waiting for you. I'm talking about coming after you!" 5:01 Great dog cam footage!
Cody Fahrion- A man who is an expert at everything he does, knows who he is, and loves what he does.
I really enjoyed the efforts of all, to manage safely as possible, wild cattle removal. I understand the difficultly with everything involved.
It is definitely special skills and knowledge. Watched from north western PA. I have subscribed after seeing my 1st episode with using stone tools to process a Buffalo.
Would be interested in Cal doing a similar episode in Hawai'i. There're feral pig videos all over, buy feral cows hardly get a mention.
What was most surprising was that they didn't shoot any of them.
Just awesome!!!
Another great episode!
Well done, everybody!
Hmm, like those wild cattle in Australia. Those loon fun to shoot.
Answered a lot of the questions that I had about this situation. To this point, I had only read short reads about same.
Man that’s a dream job!
👍👍👍👊. Hell of a good video. Thanks for sharing.
14:30 that got real western real quick
Great show 👍👍👍
That black hat is king
Great episode!!! Ever think about the “wild” horse topic for and episode. Super big problem with little to no management practices that no one will talk about
Skyler Nosie had a business doing this in Arizona on his channel Apache Cowboy. I would’ve loved to see he and Ryan work together!
Awesome
Hey Cal ,ive seen Mexican Cowboys wrangle Wild Bovine in Arizona DessertsThey do a hell of a job👍.
Good work Men!
JO JO IN VT 💞
Very educational!! Thank you!!
Awesome video. Never knew this stuff was going out west, hats off to them boys rounding them up
Good afternoon from Syracuse NY brother and everyone else
Ha! Fellow Syracusan here. (Liverpool, but whatever...) Born and raised in CNY.
Ok my friend
Great video. Seems like a lot of unnecessary man work per individual animal. Here in Australia we have massive number of feral and semi-feral cattle. Ringers will use dirt bikes, buggies and helicopters to herd the cattle into large fenced funnels with a gate at the end. I encourage anyone to check out the show Outback Ringer, or just look up what I’m talking about on RUclips. Some of the best and ballsiest heli pilots in he world - you won’t be disappointed.
I want to do this so bad. I just moved to a region with tons of free range cattle and ride my motorcycle through the range all the time. It always makes me feel good to see these cattle out here (the non feral ones) but now I wonder how much of an issue this is out here and if people need help with it. I’m sure there is a learning curve but god damn you gotta start some where.
Love it. My only question is why don't they just have a hunting season for them. I would pay to hunt them.
Too many logistical issues I assume.
Because los alamos is a very liberal animal rights county and when it was brought up there was public outcry
Soo proud to call Mr. Peterson my neighbor... been a pleasure watching his "cowboyness"🤣 grow throughout this journey!
I agree. Makes us so proud to have our NM heritage showcased
This was just cool.
This episode could have been much longer and never got boring. Cody needs a denim First Lite jacket.
hey Cal. i know its just the situation. but did u feel weird doing a drone hunt? i get that if ur not doing it some one else is. but knowing you by listening and following for a long time its gotta be crazy doing a drone hunt huh? any way love the content no less. look to hear the answer in the week in review , sponsored by stihl! love it man!!!
because no one else will . that's a might powerful statement
LOL @ cal hittin that beef with his baseball hat @14:37
As a primarily whitetail hunter from Michigan I don't have a great grasp on the size difference between these cattle and like elk and moose, but why don't they open up a year-round rifle season for the wild cattle with cheap tags? There have got to be locals who would take a cow, and it could be a super cheap DIY hunt providing a ton of meat.
this is a good video
great information and video Cal thank you .
Que shulada saludos
What kind of dogs are they?
Love to see that there's somebody like cody out there.
Hunting is not as common in India, but this show is riveting
That was interesting.
That there is a real cowboy!
Let hunters cash there elk tag in on an identified wild cow. Hold a identification course like lions an cash some last day elk tags in
Will MeatEater be returning to NetFlix? Latest episodes are from 2022, that I can find
Alternative title: Callaghaning Wild Cattle With Ryan Wrangler.
Is it just me or has Steve taken a step back in being in hunting videos.
Love me some meat eater
Why isn't there more of a push for state and federal funding to manage the problem? Protecting the ecosystems and people is good for everyone and you'd think pulling out all the stops to do so, would prompt a positive response. The proliferation and range of feral pigs, for example, should be of great concern to people as much as wild and non native species. This was another fun and educational edition as well!
Call ready to risk it all for outdoorsy cow lady👀😂
Start giving out cow tags. I’d go down there and take one out myself. The state would make money instead of spend it.
you should see how the Aussies do it mate
It doesn't get more Cowboy then Cody...
He’s a cal-boy
Great video, I'm glad to see you didn't get your ass hooked. Would it make sense to issue some hunting tags to the public? I mean I would consider doing a hunt for beef.
I live in Los alamos County and frequent the area they filmed in. One thing they didn't mention is that the cattle that they are chasing came from the santa clara Indian publo/reservation. Which boarders the land they are trying to remove them from. This is just the latest effort to remove them. They have hired wrangler to round them up before and they got a few. The County thought about shooting them but Los alamos County is very pro animal rights and anti hunting so that option had lots of push back.
I live and work in this country y’all need some real cowboys
Surprised you didn’t mention the option for hunters to hunt them.
So does the state take the money from the man that talked to him?
super cool how they do more than just hunt
I want to drive to new Mexico and hunt a wild cow now bucket list updated how do I get in on this
contact Busted Spur Cattle Company
One question, why don't they just tranquilise the cattle instead of 'wrangling'
14:42 😅😂😅😂
Man, I wish they were fair game, but if that was a possibility, people would probably shooting legit owned cattle.
I wish free steak roamed around on my property.
I grew up on a cattle ranch in new meadows Idaho. We had grazing rights in the hills west of town. Full disclosure we were hired help. Dad started cutting me $100 a summer when I was ten. We moved the cattle constantly and at the end of the season we accounted for damn near every one every year! Occasionally we lost one to an disgruntled hunter. This was before the wolf reintroduction. Symbiosis is nearly the normal now. I’ve digressed horribly! The worst cattle that we ever had were from Hawaii. We never put them in the hills. We kept them in the valley. From what we heard they are basically vaccinated at birth and then let go into the hills so they don’t really know what people are. I could open a gate on a 60 acre field and they were all on the far side! I’ve been hit a few times! Cattle are definitely wild animals! I also had a pet one so you never know.
Think about the amount of resources that are being spent just to wrangle these cattle. The money the federal government gets on behalf of us public land owners off these grazing leases, it’s basically a give away. Time to monetarily align the value of this land for hunting use with grazing use .
I love the video but I feel like it's a missed opportunity to not put these cattle in breeding programs. They have great stock regardless of their condition
Put a hunting season on them.... eh, some nuances to regulations. Human introduced critters on landscapes are put into freezers for other species.
Might be hard with free range cattle. How would you know which ones to shoot?
@@D_Boone I agree that's the problem.
If the state owns the unbranded cattle, who pays Cody to catch them?
Why not let hunters take one
I'll beat the dead horse, no pun intended. That's a whole lot of carne guisada walking around out there. New Mexico should take a note from Australia and Hawaii. Respect to Cody, but the county could be making money on tags. Give the legions of hunters pining for the bison or water buffalo experience a new outlet. 😅
Needs to be done with feral horses too. They have an even more negative impact on the ecosystem than feral cows do.
i guess they just can't go to a tag system ;\
I'd just assumed they'd have shot them, seems like a lot of risk for not much reward to capture them like that.
This is how wild horses in the Southwest should be managed. They are not native to the landscape either.
Hi ❤ u pls visit siviti timbavati 😊plains and pls hunt in south africa
Some great cattle genetics that can survive on nothing.
Spoil the romanticism of cowboys.....hardly. Those cattle wouldn't be there if someone didn't leave behind strays at some point. And as history shows, not all cowboys were honorable men. The disease issue alone is enough to commend these men for stepping up where others have failed.
How do these "belong to the state"? And they get paid for their meat? Sounds like a racket to me. We pay to fund them, yet they make a profit somehow?
On one hand i grt where you're coming from. But given the amount of ranches in the southwest you have to make sure people aren’t out there rustling cattle (Which does still happen btw) and saying “oopsie, we were just wrangling ferals”. notice they had the inspector come in to make sure none of the cows were branded. I do still agree with you to an extent though
I imagine they are treated the same as wildlife. Wildlife also belongs to the state.
I wonder with all the time and cost involved in capture how much of a profit the state actually makes.
@@D_Boone the racket runs deep, what can I say? There's no way to own land in this country either. If you cant keep up with the taxes every single year, you're constantly in jeopardy of losing it. Then I don't really "own it" now do I? If I need a permit and surrender my 4th amendment in order to make even the simplest use of public land (ie: camping), then how much of a "public land owner" is any civilian really? Our system is beyond broken and corrupted. The more I learn, the more it sickens me and deepens my rejection of it
Why not sell $20 tags and invite hunters to go fill their freezers?
I'm not normally one to say something like this, but, just shoot and drop them. That's way too much work/risk.
Not about people getting hurt it is about the money, they eat the stuff that causes wild fires and their patty's make great soil for grasses to grow...WAKE UP STOP BEING WOKE
About the money? There is no money in it. How can it be about the money if there is no money to be had? They are incredibly destructive to ecosystems, not beneficial. Do some research.
Why aren't the cattle just killed from a helicopter?
That ain’t no cowboy’n, just dudes with trank guns and dogs, get a lot more rounded up with people on horses roping them. Wasting gas and time only getting one loaded up a day.
I live in Los alamos County and they have been trying to round up these cattle for years they hired wranglers on hourse that got a few. This is just the latest effort. It won't work any better than their previous efforts
@@scottjensen8912 I’m just saying a good crew of people on horses that can rope can pull in at least 30+ head a day. We have good days where we will rope a lot a day to the point other days are slower because we done roped everything out the place. That’s including the big bulls. If this place so infested it would be easy Pickens to people that love doing it.
Please tell the whole story! How many wild cattle? How much of a dent is this program having? So many answers left unaddressed!
Seems inefficient and uneconomical. So the main reason why they aren't shot from helicopters or drones is due to satisfying complaints from people who think that is inhumane?
Who is paying for this? Hope it is not we the people and that it is paid for from donations or by folks who don't want them shot via aircraft.
Over 120 head of cattle have been removed, only 5 have had brands. County of Los Alamos is funding the project.
@Eric-wy7nn Thanks. 120 out of how many on the landscape? How many days did it take to remove the 120? What is the cost for each cow and calf unit removed?
sell me a tag.. problem solved
You going to look for a brand before you shoot it?
@@D_Boone nope
@@bobbybearclaw thats the problem
@@maxbarile5216 sounds like cattle being where they shouldnt be is the problem
