Yes, cattle ranching experienced significant growth after the Civil War. The expansion of railroads allowed for easier transportation of cattle to market, particularly to the East. Additionally, the demand for beef surged as the population grew and urban centers expanded. This period saw the rise of the cattle industry, including the iconic cattle drives and the establishment of ranches across the American West.
