    I see where you’re coming from K, SDMF. Your concerns concern me too. It bears keeping an eye on.

    American Prairie Preserve

    Maybe it’s a long con. Maybe it’s not. I want to believe that some well minded individuals got together and said let’s do something grand. Maybe that’s naive. I dunno. If that’s not the case though, I still think it’s neat.

    Bacon! Need help...

    The original recipe says that rub will cover 2.5-3 lbs of meat but I’ve never weighed it out. I just make sure the whole surface has a good coverage. I’ll add more as needed. Sometimes, rarely, the really thick ends won’t get cured quite all the way through.

    What about it Zogman? I get completely different vibe about it than retired educator and that’s ok. Yes, non-profits don’t pay taxes. So is the NRA which I know you support. It was private land, its still private land. They didn’t set out to provide a haven for hunters, though they still allow...

    You’re not going to convince me otherwise Gabe. I know how you operate and this is as far as I’m going to take the conversation with you.

    American Prairie Preserve

    We grow more food with less land than we ever have. Ag producers are VERY proud of that fact. As an Ag worker, I am proud of that fact. It’s ok to lose some land to conservation K, this was on Wikipedia, so it would have to be verified but APR does participate in Block Management and has...

    I read somewhere that some of it is in Block management. I’ll try to find it. There are some Montanans that despise federally managed public land too. I’ve given up on making everyone happy. I’ll support what feels right to me.

    I’m idealistic about wildlife and conservation. I wish I had millions to support that cause. We are not running out of places to put roads. We are not running out of places to graze cows. We are not running out of places to plant corn. We are running out of places that are wild.

    I understand the cynicism KDM and please know that I highly respect your opinion. When you talk, I listen. I can’t help but notice though that this property isn’t all that far from another operation that buys a shit ton of land and doesn’t let anyone access it. They also attempt to buy certain...

    So you only believe in private property rights when it suits your own purposes?

    American Prairie Preserve

    The lands they purchase are already privately owned lands that can (likely) limit or cut off access. That is a straw man argument.

    American Prairie Preserve

    It’s willing private sellers selling to willing private buyers. I’m sure they still pay property tax. Why do we, as people that use renewable resources the most, so against innovative conservation? It would have been amazing to live here prior to colonization. Their goal is to bring a little...

    Have you guys heard of this place? I find it pretty fascinating. https://www.americanprairie.org/ There is a book out there (admittedly I haven't read it yet but is on my list and nearing the top) called "American Serengeti" by Dan Flores. In this book, it kind of describes what the...
