Borderland Ranchers Fight Drought

Published 2 weeks ago
Description

In the Malpai Borderlands, a severe drought threatens the livelihood of generational ranchers like Bill McDonald. Once-reliable monsoons and winter rains have dwindled, causing grasses to thin and invasive shrubs to take over. Ranchers are making tough choices, selling off herds and conserving water, as wildlife suffers and generational knowledge of sustainable practices fades. Despite forecasts of no quick relief, these resilient ranchers remain determined to keep their grasslands alive.
