Fact vs. fiction: What Montana livestock investigators actually do, beyond 'Yellowstone'
<p dir="ltr">Snow-dusted peaks towered in the background, cows lowed in the expansive rangeland and cowboys on horseback moved heifers and steers off trailers.</p> <p dir="ltr">There wasn’t a film camera in sight, but it sure looked, sounded and felt like a scene straight out of the hit television show "Yellowstone.”</p> <p dir="ltr">And Wes Seward certainly looked the part donning his black cowboy hat and worn-in cowboy boots, with a gun holstered on his hip. </p> <p dir="ltr">But Seward isn’t an actor pretending he’s an agent of the show’s fictional Montana Livestock Association. He is a district livestock investigator for the very real Montana Department of Livestock, a state agency with a history that reaches back to before the state’s formation and a mandate to ensure law and order within the state’s expansive ranching industry. </p> <p dir="ltr">"Yellowstone" hasn’t just borrowed from Seward’s reality, though.</p> <p dir="ltr">It has changed it, bringing in more people, more animals, more money and more pressure on livestock producers who already face long days and long odds to make a living and to keep Montana’s ranching tradition alive.</p> <p dir="ltr">With me today is Ted McDermott a reporter with Lee Enterprises’ Public Service Journalism who recently reported on the world of livestock police and the effects of the TV show on life in Montana.</p> <p> </p>

River Recreation: New advisory council seeks to help overcrowding on Montana waterways
<p dir="ltr">It’s the limestone cathedral of the Smith, the caddis hatch on the Madison, the rushing emerald water of the Flathead that draw more and more people to the arterial waterways of Montana’s wild country. That’s just to name a few.</p> <p dir="ltr">Anyone who’s spent time on a river in Montana in the past decade probably saw a variety of people using the waterways. </p> <p dir="ltr">Especially since the pandemic, use of the state’s streams has escalated as more people have sought ways to recreate outdoors. </p> <p dir="ltr">The Montana River Recreation Advisory Council was recently created by Fish, Wildlife & Parks to look into river recreation and all of the issues that come with it. These may include garbage, crowding and sometimes fistfights as tempers escalate.</p> <p dir="ltr">The council recently met over three days to come up with some suggestions for FWP. Here to talk about the group is Brett French, outdoor editor at the Billings Gazette.</p> <p> </p>
