Leaders of the North Slope village of Nuiqsut sued the U.S. Department of Interior on January 28, for canceling a key subsistence protection for a development project, as The Alaska Desk’s Alena Naiden from our flagship station KNBA reports. About a year ago, the U.S. Bureau of Land Management issued an agreement with Nuiqsut leaders that prohibited oil and gas development around Teshekpuk Lake, which is located in the northeastern corner of the National Petroleum Reserve-Alaska. The goal was to mitigate the harm that the ConocoPhillips' Willow project would have on caribou – a crucial subsistence resource for Nuiqsut residents. But last month, the Department of the Interior, which oversees BLM, canceled that agreement, saying it was improperly issued in the first place. In turn, Nuiqsut's leadership filed the lawsuit in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia, arguing that the cancellation was illegal. “We’re fighting to protect the area and think about the caribou.” George Tuukaq Sielak is the president of Nuiqsut's Kuukpik Corporation. He says the cancellation was disappointing and damaged the trust of Nuiqsut residents. “By pulling that right of way off, I mean, it’s just like throwing us away.” Department of Interior officials declined to comment, citing the pending litigation. When BLM approved the controversial Willow project in 2023, one condition was mitigating the harm on Teshekpuk Lake – a key habitat for the Teshekpuk Caribou Herd. And BLM signed a right-of-way agreement with Nuiqsut to meet that condition. That conservation measure was backed by the law that directs the Department of Interior to conduct oil and gas leasing in the reserve. The law also requires “maximum protection” for Teshekpuk Lake and other significant subsistence areas. M Sielak, with Kuupik Corporation, says that Nuiqsut residents are careful when they consider development projects so close to their home, but the promise of additional protections for caribou helped more residents to get on board with Willow. “We will support development in our area, as long as we work together to balance, such as what we’re doing here with a right of way.” But the Department of the Interior said that the federal law does not authorize such conservation measures when it canceled the right-of-way agreement. The department also said in its cancellation letter that right-of-way agreements are usually used to allow oil and gas activities, not prohibit them, and that the primary goal of the law regulating the reserve is to support oil and gas leasing, while subsistence protections come second. The department indicated that they expect to hold lease sales this winter, which may include the area around Teshekpuk lake. Nuiqsut leadership say they might consider legal avenues – like seeking injunctive relief – to protect the area, but no decision has been made yet.

(Photo: Ron Stewart / National Park Service) A bipartisan bill on Capitol Hill is looking to turn one of Arizona's federal monuments into the state's fourth national park behind Saguaro, the Petrified Forest, and the Grand Canyon. KJZZ's Gabriel Pietrorazio has details. Established in 1924 by President Calvin Coolidge, Chiricahua National Monument is known by many as the “Wonderland of Rocks”. From Geronimo to Cochise, this land is also steeped in Apache history, something the San Carlos Apache Tribe and neighboring Mescalero Apache Tribe in New Mexico, want to see permanently protected. The effort is being led by U.S. Sens. Mark Kelly and Ruben Gallego (D-AZ) and U.S. Rep. Juan Ciscomani (R-AZ) in the House. If passed, Arizona would tie fourth-overall with Colorado – behind Utah, Alaska, and California – for states with the most national parks. Yurok Chairman Joseph L James speaks at the 3rd Annual MMIP Tribal Policy Summit. (Courtesy Yurok Tribe / Facebook) California tribes are gathering this week for the Missing and Murdered Indigenous People (MMIP) Tribal Policy Summit. The annual summit in its fourth year and is expected to draw tribal leaders, lawmakers, advocates, and victims' families. The theme is justice, healing, sovereignty, and solutions to the MMIP crisis. Two proposed pieces of legislation will be discussed: a bill to establish a MMIP Justice Program within the state justice department – and a bill to establish a Tribal Foster Care Prevention Program to prevent Indigenous children from entering the child welfare system, which advocates say is a MMIP pathway. The event is taking place Tuesday and Wednesday at the Hard Rock Hotel and Casino Sacramento. Get National Native News delivered to your inbox daily. Sign up for our daily newsletter today.

This week on Parkography, we look at the Trump administration's directive that's leading to the removal of exhibits and signs about slavery, Native American displacement, labor history, and climate change at national parks across the country. We also examine new polling showing strong bipartisan opposition in Western states to the nominee to lead the Bureau of Land Management, and a lawsuit challenging new federal rules that limit public input on logging, drilling, and wildlife management projects in national forests. We'll also cover new policies making it easier to lease public lands for oil and gas development — even as recent federal lease sales in Colorado draw zero bids — and a major reorganization of federal wildfire programs with the launch of a new U.S. Wildland Fire Service. On the ground, we're tracking a record year for search and rescue at Yosemite, recent vandalism near Bridalveil Fall, illegal off-road driving that damaged rare desert plants at Death Valley's Eureka Dunes, and adaptive reopening plans for the Grand Canyon's North Rim after last year's wildfire. And we'll end with some good news: a surprise dinosaur fossil discovery at Dinosaur National Monument and major restoration projects underway at memorials and fountains across Washington, D.C. ahead of America's 250th anniversary.

What happens to wild horses once they are removed from public lands and placed in holding facilities? In this episode, I examine a new Bureau of Land Management policy that expands the use of sales as a way to reduce the number of wild horses in government care, raising serious concerns about oversight and protection. I'm joined by longtime wild horse advocate and Freedom of Information Act expert Debbie Coffey to explain what this policy change allows and why it matters. We discuss how increased reliance on sales, especially group sales, creates risks when transparency is limited and public access to information continues to decline. We also outline why advocates view this shift as a direct threat to wild horses belonging to the American public and what listeners can do in response.

For decades, Otho Bridge was a beloved gathering place for a small community of Moab locals who lived in Mill Creek Canyon. That era has come to an end—the last person left the canyon a few years ago. Then, last spring, the Bureau of Land Management dismantled the site at Otho Bridge, including the famous sandstone chessboard. In this story, we speak with a BLM archaeologist and a member of that original Mill Creek community about the line between art and vandalism, community and public land. Photo by Emily Arntsen/KZMU

Welcome back to the WhitetailDNA Podcast! On today's episode, we recap year one on the River Farm that Jeremy purchased in June of 2025. It was a full sprint to get the property ready for the 2025 hunting season. From improving access and dialing in travel corridors to building water holes, planting food plots, installing stands and blinds, and setting up mock scrapes, an incredible amount of work was packed into a very short window. The guys talk over reality when it comes to your first hunting season on a new property, and what expectations should be like. Looking ahead, Jeremy explains what worked, what failed, and what is planned for 2026 on the River Farm. This is a great episode of transparency and reflection when it comes to buying and owning a farm. Enjoy the show!

Interview with George Salamis, President & CEO of Integra Resources Corp.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/integra-resources-tsxvitr-us-gold-producer-with-400-cash-flow-growth-8884Recording date: 14th January 2026Integra Resources has achieved a significant milestone for its DeLamar gold-silver project in Idaho through acceptance into the federal FAST-41 permitting program. This designation establishes a defined 15-month review timeline with the Bureau of Land Management targeting a record of decision in Q2/Q3 2027, providing unprecedented certainty for a US mining development.According to George Salamis, President and CEO of Integra Resources, "for the first time in DeLamar's history as our project, the US federal government has put our project on a clock and it's a fast clock, far faster than certainly anybody expected." The FAST-41 framework assigns a dedicated Federal Permitting Council advisor to coordinate inter-agency reviews while maintaining rigorous environmental standards through compressed response times rather than reduced scrutiny.A key feature of the designation is quarterly congressional accountability, with the assigned coordinator required to report directly to Congress on project progress and explain any delays. This oversight mechanism creates strong incentives for maintaining momentum while a public tracking dashboard allows shareholders to monitor advancement in real-time.The company has demonstrated effective regulatory collaboration, reducing the project footprint by 25% between preliminary and final feasibility studies through consultations with the BLM. Public hearings scheduled for spring 2026 will serve as the first formal litmus test for stakeholder acceptance, though extensive pre-engagement with Idaho stakeholder groups has already occurred.Salamis emphasised the capital planning benefits, noting that "these clear timelines for us equate to better capital planning, and the reduced risk for us means lower cost of capital ultimately to finance and build this project." The designation fundamentally addresses what Salamis identified as "the single biggest risk for new mines anywhere in the world, let alone the US"—permitting uncertainty—while Integra simultaneously advances required state-level permits for air quality, water quality, and cyanidation that must synchronise with the federal timeline.View Integra Resources' company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/integra-resourcesSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Planning with livestock isn't about filling a calendar—it's about working with seasons, weather, animals, and real life. In this episode, I'm sharing what's happening on our ranch right now, how we plan a full livestock year, and why I've stopped trying to force rigid schedules that don't fit the reality of ranch life. I walk through our annual rhythm with goats, cattle, fencing, meat sales, and family life, breaking down what each season typically holds and how those rhythms shape our planning decisions. From winter breeding and paperwork to spring kidding prep, summer grazing and county fair, and fall weaning and breeding plans, this episode gives you a realistic look at how a working ranch year actually unfolds. We also talk about what's changing for us in 2026—adjustments in breeding decisions, pasture and seeding experiments, a major perimeter fence project, and shifts in meat sales and time commitments. I share why flexibility has become a priority, how over-scheduling creates frustration, and what it looks like to plan with wider margins instead of tighter timelines. If you've ever felt behind because your plans didn't survive weather, animals, kids, or life in general, this episode is here to give you permission to plan differently. Seasonal planning isn't less disciplined—it's more honest. And for many of us, it's the only way to stay steady long-term. In This Episode, I Cover: What's happening on the ranch right now and how weather affects daily decisions How we plan a livestock year around seasons instead of rigid schedules A realistic walkthrough of our ranch year, from breeding to weaning What's changing for us in 2026 and why flexibility matters How infrastructure projects reduce labor and stress long-term Why overplanning creates frustration—and what we're doing instead Key Takeaways: Livestock planning works best when it follows seasons, not calendars Weather, animals, and family life will always change the plan Rigid timelines often increase stress instead of progress Planning with margin creates steadiness and resilience Seasonal rhythms support long-term stewardship and sustainability Related Episodes: 02 | Overwhelmed? 4 Steps to Create a Practical Plan for Adding Livestock to Your Homestead Successfully 06 | What Livestock Should I Get First?

In 2025, the state of Montana voted for Trump by nearly 20 points. But Montanan's support for the president is waning because of the administration's policies on public lands. To unpack the effects of DOGE cuts to public land agencies, host Esty Dinur is joined by journalist Cassidy Randall, author of a recent article, ‘I Didn't Vote for This': A Revolt Against DOGE Cuts, Deep in Trump Country. Randall says that the DOGE cuts that started last February are bad for public lands beyond the national parks. In Montana, people use public lands for recreation and public land agencies engage in wildfire mitigation and habitat restoration. Ranchers rely on grazing allotments because most ranches aren't big enough to graze all their livestock. In Project 2025 there are plans to sell off and privatize private lands. Randall says that if you hollow out the agencies that manage them, it becomes an excuse to sell them off. “When we lose these places, they're gone forever.” Though Montana leans conservative, the people are pro-environment, and the right to a “clean and healthful environment” is written into the state's constitution. And young people are winning climate lawsuits based on their constitutional rights. On top of the DOGE cuts, people in Montana are concerned about tariffs and the Trump administration's relationship with Argentina. They also discuss how the ultra wealthy are turning to Montana as their playground, the crisis of rural hospitals in the state, and healthcare affordability. Cassidy Randall writes on adventure, environment, and the West. Her award-winning journalism has appeared in Rolling Stone, National Geographic, the New York Times, Vanity Fair, Outside, and Men's Journal, among others; and her latest book, Thirty Below, was named one of The Washington Post's Noteworthy Books of the Month and won the Banff Mountain Grand Prize.

On this episode of the Backcountry Hunters & Anglers Podcast and Blast, host Hal Herring sits down with Josh Jackson, author of The Enduring Wild and founder of The Forgotten Lands Project. Jackson's journey into California's Bureau of Land Management landscapes reveals the forgotten backbone of conservation — the so-called leftover lands that belong to all of us, yet are loved by too few. Through photography, storytelling and hard-earned curiosity, this conversation explores why these places matter, why they're vulnerable, and why building a broader coalition of people who know and care about them may be one of the most important conservation challenges of our time.

Get Goat Wise | Homestead Livestock, Raising Goats, Chickens, Off-grid living
Regenerative agriculture can feel like a buzzword, a badge, or a list of practices you're supposed to follow. But in real life, and especially in a challenging climate, regeneration is a process of learning, comparing ideas against your own environment, testing small changes, observing what your land and animals are telling you, and adjusting as you go. In this episode, I'm sharing the decision-making loop we use on our ranch with both goats and cattle, and why I see multi-species grazing as a long-term benefit—even though it adds complexity in the beginning. I also walk through our big-picture goal of reducing supplemental hay by extending the grazing season, and the real constraints we have to work within, like limited moisture, fragile pasture, frozen ground, predators, and wildlife pressure. You'll hear how we're approaching water infiltration and soil building in a dry climate, why we're testing straw bales to slow runoff first, and what we've already observed from years of intensive rotational grazing, chicken tractors, and summer bale grazing. I also explain why certain popular practices don't translate well to goat management in our conditions—and how we adapt without abandoning the principles. In This Episode, I Cover: Why regenerative agriculture is a process, not a destination The decision-making loop: Learn → Compare Context → Clarify Goals → Test → Observe → Adjust → Repeat How to learn from other producers without copy-pasting their practices Shifting from “this won't work in my climate” to “how do these principles apply here?” Why nature is the best teacher and how to use observation as your guide Our big-picture goal: reducing hay by extending spring and fall grazing The resource bottleneck in dry country: water infiltration and water-holding capacity Why soil cover and organic matter are critical in moisture-limited environments Using straw bales to slow runoff as a low-risk way to test water flow paths What we've observed after 5 years of intensive rotational grazing The forage improvements we've seen from chicken tractors and summer bale grazing Why winter bale grazing is risky/not feasible for us right now (electric netting in frozen ground, elk pressure) A winter feeding strategy that works within predator pressure and management reality A soil-building feeding approach we're preparing to test (and why snow cover matters) Why we're not buying a no-till drill right now—and what we want in place first Why starting with annuals can make sense before investing in expensive perennial seed Key Takeaways: Regenerative practices aren't universal—principles transfer, but application must fit your climate and animals. Nature is the best teacher: observation turns theory into real management decisions. Start with clear goals and real constraints, then break big objectives into small, testable steps. Moisture-limited land requires prioritizing water infiltration, water-holding capacity, and soil cover. Testing small and reversible ideas (like straw bales) can prevent expensive mistakes. Multi-species grazing is a long-term benefit, but it adds complexity—especially in the beginning. “Not yet” is a valid answer on tools and investments; timing matters. Progress comes from repeated cycles of learning, testing, observing, and adjusting—not from perfection.

This week on the Econews Report, we're joined by Marc Hoshovsky and Bob Schneider, two of the authors of the new book Exploring the Berryessa Snow Mountain National Monument, which will be published early next year by Backcountry Press.Never heard of the Berryessa Snow Mountain National Monument? It's an incredibly strange stretch of land, with absolutely unique geologic and botanical features, that stretches down from Lake County to Napa County. The land is part of a subduction zone that was thrown up from the deep ocean to the mountains, and as such it's made mostly of minerals and rock types that you're not likely to find many other places.On top of that, the region has a rich and unique history that encompassed some 31 different Native American groups … and terrible acts of genocide at the hands of European settlers.Check out this conversation, then check out the book, and you'll almost certainly want to check out the Berryessa/Snow Mountain area on your next hiking trip.LINKS:Exploring the Berryessa Snow Mountain National Monument at Backcountry Press.The monument's Wikipedia page.The monument's page at the Bureau of Land Management.Support the show
Today, we're looking at the future of the Bureau of Land Management — a federal agency that oversees nearly 250 million acres of land in the West. We're in the middle of a critical moment for public lands, especially the BLM. Staffing and budget cuts are hitting an agency that's already stretched thin, there's still no confirmed director, and a recent ProPublica investigation is once again raising questions about oversight of the grazing program. To help put all these headlines in context, and consider what reforms might even be possible, WLA's CEO Lesli Allison sat down with Jesse Juen, former New Mexico State Director of the BLM.

Guest Hunter Seim is a thirty-year veteran of the Bureau of Land Management. His current role is a range and wild horse advisor to the District Manager of the Northwest District, Colorado BLM. During his career, he worked as a land survey technician and an outdoor recreation planner specializing in wilderness management in Palm Springs, California, and as a rangeland management specialist and an assistant field manager in Craig, Colorado. His duties have given him exposure to almost every aspect of managing public lands. He received a Bachelor of Science in Range Management from Texas Tech University in 1992. Range management and rangeland ecology are my primary background and where the bulk of my career and professional interests lie. Summary Hunter Seim brings three decades of experience from the Bureau of Land Management to this conversation about managing America's public lands. With a background in range management and ecology, Hunter explains how the BLM oversees 245 million acres across the western states, balancing diverse and often conflicting interests—from wilderness preservation to resource extraction, livestock grazing, and wildlife habitat protection. The discussion reveals the BLM's unique challenge: its mission is so broad that "somebody's always going to be disappointed." Hunter describes managing everything from wilderness boundaries in California to oil and gas reclamation in Colorado, emphasizing that collaboration is essential to success. Rather than dictating policy, the BLM works as a neighbor to thousands of private landowners, state agencies, and various other stakeholders. Particularly fascinating is Hunter's work with outcome-based grazing, which demonstrates how properly managed livestock grazing can coexist with—and even benefit—sensitive habitats, such as sage grouse environments. The wild horse program presents one of the agency's most emotionally charged challenges, as the BLM attempts to balance animal welfare with ecosystem health while facing intense public scrutiny amplified by social media. From fire management to water rights, mineral extraction to animal crossings, the BLM operates at the intersection of conservation and commerce. Hunter emphasizes that these public lands benefit all Americans, whether they ever visit them or not—from the resources they provide to the simple knowledge that vast, undeveloped wilderness still exists. His recommended reading, Wallace Stegner's "Beyond the 100th Meridian," captures the essential challenge of managing the arid West. The Essential Point The most critical insight is that successful public lands management requires constant collaboration and a balancing act between competing interests. The BLM cannot simply dictate policy—it must work as a neighbor with thousands of stakeholders, from ranchers to environmentalists, state agencies to private landowners. This collaborative approach, exemplified by outcome-based grazing initiatives that benefit both livestock operators and wildlife habitat, demonstrates that conservation and commerce need not be mutually exclusive.

This week: National parks reopen after the government shutdown — but not before one of them gets hit with a rash of graffiti. Winter closures are rolling in across the park system, including some big changes at Yellowstone and the Grand Canyon. The Park Service is trying to hire 500 new law enforcement rangers with an eye-popping $70,000 bonus… while a new academic study shows national parks are still some of the safest places you can visit. We'll also look at the Justice Department's renewed crackdown on marijuana use on federal land, the controversy surrounding the nominee to lead the Bureau of Land Management. Plus — a presidential pardon for a record-setting trail runner, and the unbelievable moment a man walked straight toward a pack of wolves in Yellowstone.

Get Goat Wise | Homestead Livestock, Raising Goats, Chickens, Off-grid living
Hi friends! Today we're talking about the transition from conventional agriculture and livestock production to a regenerative or restorative system. I spent two days in the truck, listening to Will Harris' book, A Bold Return to Giving a Damn, and it gave me some great insights into the decades-long journey of White Oak Pastures, as well as a look into the future of our ranch. If you're considering a production system that is closer to nature's design or if you're in the messy middle like we are, this episode will help you see the possibilities, problems, and the beautiful potential. Let's get to it! All the Best!

In this episode I'll be talking with Scott Beckstead of the Wild Horse Refuge in Colorado. We'll talk about how he is helping wild horses who have been rounded up by the Bureau of Land Management return to a life of freedom.About the Guest:A lifelong student and admirer of horses and all equines, Scott Beckstead grew up with horses on his family's farm and spent much of his childhood and youth on horseback in the mountains of Idaho. After receiving his bachelor's degree from Utah State University and his JD from the University of Utah, Beckstead worked as an attorney in private practice for 17 years on the central Oregon coast before going to work full-time in the animal protection sector as a legislative lobbyist, agriculture policy director, and equine welfare specialist. During his time on the coast he also served as the mayor of Waldport, Oregon from 2002 to 2007. Beckstead became known for his special expertise in the field of animal law, and has taught that subject as well as classes on wildlife, animal agriculture, cannabis, and polar law at Willamette University College of Law as an adjunct professor of law since 2010. In 2000, he co-authored Animal Law, the first casebook on the subject. Because of his familiarity with horses, livestock, and farm animals, Beckstead provides training to law enforcement agencies on how to handle and work with those animals, and how to investigate equine and livestock cruelty and neglect. He currently serves as Chief Equine Programs Director for The Wild Animal Sanctuary, overseeing the organization's work to save and protect equines both wild and domestic. Beckstead is married to Jackie and has four children, two grandchildren, and an assortment of pets.

You may have heard of it, "Ambler Road"; the 211-mile roadway authorized via Presidential Executive Order to run through Alaska's Brooks Range. Meanwhile, Congress has used the congressional review act (CRA) to overturn the BLM's resource management plans in Montana, North Dakota and Alaska, putting over 160 million acres at risk. And don't forget about Utah Senator Mike Lee's latest attempt to defile the current wilderness act. These are the main topics Sam brings to our attention in this episode. Our government is seemingly overreaching and not listening to science-based wildlife management and conservation and it is up to you, the hunter, the American and the voter to address it. Don't skip over this one, because much has transpired since we last spoke.

The government shutdown has many impacts on our public lands, ranging from our National Parks and Forest Service to the Bureau of Land Management. While we spend a lot of time talking about our parks, BLM lands don't often get as much attention. In this episode, we focus on how BLM lands are changing in the short- and long-term amid the ongoing government shutdown.

The Land Podcast - The Pursuit of Land Ownership and Investing
Welcome to the land podcast, a platform for people looking to educate themselves in the world of land ownership, land investing, staying up to date with current land trends in the Midwest, and hearing from industry experts and professionals. On today's episode, we are back in the studio with repeat guest Alex Mortensen of Buckhorn Land Management. We discuss: Alex Mortenson started Buckhorn Land Management after selling his first farm at 21. Selling his first farm was an emotional decision, especially with young kids at home. He bought a second farm in Pike County, drawn by its deer sign and tillable land. The second farm had great access, allowing for easy hunting without pressuring the deer. Neighbors' hunting pressure impacted deer movement on his first farm, influencing his decisions. He learned the importance of neighbor dynamics when purchasing land for hunting. Alex's new farm features a lake, enhancing its recreational value for family and friends. He used OnX to plan the lake's layout, achieving impressive accuracy in depth and design. The new farm's appraisal came back higher than the purchase price, a pleasant surprise. Alex aims to create a family-friendly space while still hoping for good deer hunting opportunities.
