The open range came to an end because barbed wire was invented and was incredibly cheap, this meant that cattle ranchers could fence them in cheaply. One reason they wanted to do this was because the cows could roam all over the place which led to confusion when one persons cattle ended up on another ranchers farm.
The demand for beef also fell meaning that cattle ranchers found it harder and harder to sell the cattle that they were breeding and many cattle were dying and going to waste, one reason for this was the hard weather conditions and as the business was not as good anymore and people were not making as much money anymore, they moved onto other things which were easier or made them more money.

What was the open range and what brought about the end of the open range?
The open range was a system of unconfined land in the American West where cattle grazed freely without the constraints of fences, allowing ranchers to expand their herds and access vast grazing areas. The end of the open range was primarily brought about by the introduction of barbed wire in the 1870s, which enabled ranchers to enclose their land, coupled with the overgrazing of pastures and the harsh winter of 1886-1887 that decimated cattle populations. These factors, along with increased agricultural development and land claims, transformed the landscape and led to the decline of the open range era.
