Awards to True Ranches LLC
True Ranches LLC was recognized for the outstanding management on the VR
Ranch at a Wyoming Game and Fish Commission meeting in Casper on January 18, 1994. This
award was presented to True Ranches LLC for their outstanding stewardship of
resources on the VR Ranch. The work done on this ranch not only benefits our
primary business which is to produce a quality beef product, but also
benefits the wildlife that share the land with our cattle. Water management
has enabled them to be able to graze the VR's pastures more uniformly. As a
result, forage production improves and increases. This has provided better
habitat for many kinds of nesting birds, as well as deer and antelope.
True Ranches LLC works closely every year with the
Game and Fish during hunting season. Any land has its limit of animals it can
sustain, and hunting helps to keep this balance. Even though it is not always
a popular method, controlling and limiting access to the VR helps the ranch
foreman and the Game and Fish to control the harvest and keep this balance.
If you have ever hunted on the VR, you have probably witnessed first hand the
cooperation between our Ranch and the Game and Fish.
