Protesters in Oregon Seek to End Policy That Shaped West
An armed group that is occupying a wildlife reserve in Oregon has called for Washington to hand control of federal lands to ranchers and local governments."They used to call it Bundyville, a dot of the arid Wild West where in 1916, a Mormon pioneer named Abraham Bundy staked out a homestead in a sea of northern Arizona sagebrush. Settlers caught rainwater in tanks and grazed their livestock across public land that had yet to be brought under government control.
That place is mostly a ghost town today, gradually abandoned after the nation set up a system of grazing permits and regulations to curb voracious overgrazing on public lands. But shards of Bundyville have stuck with the branch of the family that made its way to Nevada, where they set up a cattle ranch and became the face of unyielding, armed protest over how Washington manages Western lands."
