Seminole Indians Turn Cowboy Life Into Cattle Economics
Florida Seminoles, descendants of a warlike tribe, are raising cattle on government supported herds to build a local economy. Superintendent Marmon notes 700 head across two reservations have netted about 40,000 from steers sales, with plans to distribute stock to families and train herd management. Most youths embrace cowboy attire and culture, though many lack literacy for western reads. The tribe remains citizens but under law cannot be sold liquor, limiting some frontier-style revelry.
