Probably so. Just saying what a lot of the cow folk seemed to complain about. There weren't any sheep out on the graze land from what I remember, so it was probably some kind of Southwest cow lore.

I've moved on from reading up on the bighorn sheep and llamas to reading up on American bison, now, just to balance things in my head.
A supply of beast manure would be helpful around here. A miniature nanny goat might be useful, going by Pleater et al's discussion.
