This episode is all about cows! Over 130 trepass cattle complaints have been sent to the BLM since 2021, but where are all of them coming from? This epsiode attempts to answer that question by breaking down the four possible sources of cows in the river I uncovered in my reporting.
BLM: the Bureau of Land Management
MOU: Memorandum of Understanding
SPRNCA: San Pedro Riparian National Conservation Area
NCA: National Conservation Area (shorthand for the SPRNCA)
RMP: Resource Management Plan
FLPMA: the Federal Land Policy and Management Act of 1976
