John; I've not read too much of HRM, but I know Alan Savory began in
Zimbabwe and is now based in New Mexico, and I have seen HRM used in SW
Oregon on slopes, to great success. (measured by increase in diversity and
in the stream below, a decrease in turbidity) And I know firsthand that in
bare, dry land imprinting aids greatly in revegetation.
Are you speaking above of ungulates being managed according to HRM methods,
or worst case Western mis-management?
BTW, in my county they for the first time hired a goatherd & herd of goats
for fuel reduction browsing in parkland adjacent to residential areas, to
rave reviews so far.
