Ranchers adapt by turning to hunting and birds in South Texas
Ray Burdette and other Hidalgo County cattlemen shift from beef to tourism, offering hunting trips and bird watching on large ranches. Burdette's El Canelo Ranch hosts international clients and an overnight lodge earning up to 150 dollars per room nightly. Cattle numbers in the region have fallen from 93,000 in 1973 to about 32,000 today. The decline, driven by drought, costs, imports, and development, has pushed many ranches to small hobby herds run by professionals rather than primary livelihoods.
