Why did the cattle industry boom during the late 1880s?
The cattle industry boomed during the late 1880s due to a combination of factors, including the expansion of railroads that enabled efficient transportation of beef to eastern markets. Additionally, the rising demand for beef in urban areas fueled by population growth contributed to the industry's expansion. The introduction of barbed wire also allowed for more effective ranching practices, leading to increased cattle production. Furthermore, the open range system allowed ranchers to graze large herds without significant costs.
Why did cattle ranching become a good job afger the civil war?
After the Civil War, cattle ranching became a lucrative job due to the rising demand for beef in the eastern United States, which was fueled by population growth and urbanization. The expansion of railroads improved transportation, allowing ranchers to ship cattle to markets more efficiently. Additionally, vast open lands in the West were available for grazing, making it easier for ranchers to raise large herds. This combination of market demand and geographical opportunity made cattle ranching an attractive profession during this period.
How did the cattle drives affect the economy and growth of towns at railheadS?
Cattle drives significantly boosted the economy of towns at railheads by creating a demand for various goods and services, including food, lodging, and supplies for cowhands and traders. As cattle were transported to market via rail, towns experienced rapid growth and development, attracting businesses and new residents. This influx of people and commerce often led to the establishment of banking, shipping, and other industries, further solidifying the towns' economic foundations. Ultimately, cattle drives played a crucial role in the expansion of the western economy during the late 19th century.

These were the first breed of cattle to ever come to the Americas, long before Herefords or any other breed arrived to the US. Longhorns were the feral descendents to the Spanish cattle that arrived with Christopher Columbus when he came to America in the late 13th century. Because these cattle had over 300 years to populate the lower part of the United States and because they were the only source of beef available at the time, they were the only cattle that were used during the "Cattle Kingdom."

What impact did the severe winters of 1865 and 1866 have on the cattle kingdom have?
It was actually the Great Winter of 1886-87 that affected the cattle kingdom. Thousands and thousands of cattle died during this Great Winter due to starvation. Many ranchers failed to put up winter feed for their cattle, and they also did not have adequate knowledge of stocking rates or carrying capacity for the grasslands that they had their cattle grazing on, so instead of having lots of pasture for winter, there was no pasture for winter because the grasslands had been overgrazed so bad. Ranchers suffered greatly in the huge losses of their cattle herds, and the cattle suffered from lack of feed.
