The decline of the cattle drive was primarily caused by the expansion of the railroad system, which allowed for faster and more efficient transportation of cattle to markets. Additionally, changes in cattle breeding and ranching practices, along with the advent of barbed wire, reduced the need for long drives across open ranges. The rise of large-scale ranching and the establishment of feedlots further diminished the traditional cattle drive's relevance. Environmental factors, including droughts and overgrazing, also contributed to the end of this iconic practice.
