Nevada Sheep Ranch
|
Ely, Nevada - With three border collies, Peruvian shepherd Alfredo Sanchez rides towards a herd of sheep on Hank Vogler's ranch. Vogler's Need More Sheep Company raises sheep in north Spring Valley, with permits to graze them on BLM and Forest Service land. Nevada ranchers are opposing the Southern Nevada Water Authority's plan to build a 300-mile pipeline to pump billions of gallons of water annually to Las Vegas. They fear the removal of so much water from their valleys would dry up their springs and make ranching impossible.
