First I would like to say, don't believe everything you read in the papers. They get only a quarter of the facts right.

My father, enamored by the American west, bought some of the land in the late seventies and the rest throughout the mid nineties.
My brother, enamored with animals of all kinds, started collecting exotic game in the late nineties simply because he loves to see the animals. In recent years, my family has come to the conclusion that the best way to keep the animals from overpopulating the ranch is not to sell them, but that it is more humane to have the animals hunted on the ranch than to ship them off to get hunted somewhere else in a cage or be killed in capture or transit.

The 5,000 acre pasture is large and rugged enough that one can drive through it on the main road, and not see more than fifteen animals out of 74(06) wildebeest- 36(06) black, 117(06) gemsbok, 9(07) cape buffalo, 85(06) addax, and so on. Nine times out of ten you won’t see the Cape buffalo from the roads.

The 5,000 acre pasture was merely the first phase of fence construction. We have now completed fencing in the boundary of the entire ranch of 36,000 acres. The eland, scimitar horned oryx, axis deer, and a few other species are already free to roam. Good luck finding them.

Mr. Mckenzie, I don’t mean to insult, but if you wish to see the paint dry for yourself, fill out the form on the “contact page” and maybe I’ll have you as my guest on the ranch for a couple of days, not to hunt but just to watch the paint dry, you will most likely sing another tune.

The Bruce ranch in the Glass Mountains near Marathon Texas raises bison.

I do thoroughly enjoy reading everyone’s opinions on this forum. Thank you
