[QUOTE="Dave, post: 91024, member: 498"] I was of the understanding that if you own land in a range area in Washington State that you are responcable for fencing livestock [b]off[/b] your property. I know for a fact it is that way in Oregon. They just went through several court battles on that issue. The other difference is that if a cow gets on a road in a range area and gets hit the driver is responcable for the accident. In a non-range area the cow owner is responcable. As for actual "open range" that you can just turn your cows out on because you feel like it, I don't believe that exists any more. All the land is owned by someone. Government rangeland will have someone who has the grazing rights to it and private land is private land. Range laws do not give you the right to graze cattle where ever you want they just tell who is responcable for fencing. Dave [/QUOTE]
