I am going to ask for a favor.

Recently, one of my favorite YouTubers is considering shutting down his channel. A little while ago, he posted a branding video where for about three seconds you could see a calf's bulls, and YouTube has been shadowbanning and burying his channel ever since. He did take the video down but they are proving relentless, and in all his recent videos he's talked about how hard it is. And now he's considering quitting the channel altogether.

So please, if you have any interest at all in horses, or cows, or ranching, please check out Ten Cow Ranch on YouTube!

This is his most recent video, from over a week ago.

Magdalena is known as the "Trails End" for the railroad spur built in 1884 by the New Mexico Railroad company from Socorro to Magdalena to transport the cattle, sheep wool, timber and ore. 1000s of cattle and sheep were driven into town on the historic "Magdalena Trail". This stockyard driveway was used annually, from 1885 through 1916, when the driveway was officially designated by law through the signing of the "Grazing Homestead Act". It remained continually in use through 1971.

Sometimes writers reveal they know nothing about an industry in the funniest way possible. Like in Scooby-Doo and the Alien Invaders the villains proclaim they're supplementing the income from their illegal mining operation by selling off the cows they stole from the locals as part of their ruse.

But like selling a cow is a whole fucking thing. That creature's almost certainly branded or tagged. You know these nerds aren't sitting at a cattle auction or filling out the paperwork.

Do they know a guy who will look the other way and slaughter them on the down low? Is there a local farmer's market or health food store unknowingly buying fenced beef? Is it an fda approved slaughter house?

The mining gold illegally from government lands is the least of their crimes here. There is absolutely another person involved in this operation. I need answers.

Places: On the Ranch

...the older I get, I have less need for contemporary culture and big cities and all the stuff we are bombarded with. I am happier at my ranch in the middle of nowhere watching a bug carry leaves across the grass, listening to silence, riding my horse, and being in open space.
