Masive Natural Land Destruction

I’m just trying to show what can destroy your land naturally. These pictures can give everyone more than some chat with a neighbor.

It must be noted that in rural areas of the south west a lot of the natural animals still inhabit the same areas they did before humans settled there. It’s just that mankind has done away with several of the carnivore hunting beasts. That has allowed some animals to multiply highly. Unfortunately the humid animals can bring problems of their own. One animal that is very controversial is the prairie dog. Here is a shot of a prairie dog hole. They naturally can dig deep holes to live in throughout what ever field that start living in. This makes your field really hazardous to whatever stock you make a living with.

Since animals like mountain lions and rattle snakes aren’t as numerous as they were in the eighteen hundreds the number of prairie dogs can increase heavy enough to take your land over. Once they really begin to strive most land owners have to face a puzzle more extreme than settling a credit card dept. They have to stumble around looking for an easy way to save their land.

One has to hope the puzzle can be solved before the land gets blown away. This puzzle is so difficult the only time the land owner’s mind can relax is when a distracting idea hits. They can laugh while thinking the prairie dog hole would make a great septic tank.

                                                          Unfortunately the risk of loosing your horses over rides any humor one might feel. Most of us have tried to your our computer to save them. That bid of modern times has let many of us learn that some people believe prairie dogs are a wonderful animal. They say we are animals ourselves when we try to clear our fields of prairie dogs.

I just thought their outlook was easy to understand. Maybe we are supposed to move into town and live in some apartment on the eighteenth floor. That way all the pavement will keep us all from spraining an ankle. We would never stumble in a prairie dog hole.

I can at least see that there probably wouldn’t be any place to tie my mares up in the parking lot. That it would be real hard to fill my apartment closets with bales of hay. That pedestrians would dislike walking through some hose manure on any sidewalks I’d ride on. I’m going to have to get back at being a puzzle solving cowboy and save my herd before spring time hits.
