Me or Rice? If me (not a NY'r, BTW, but don't know much about cattle, either), then I admit to shorting the list of what is needed. Need grazers and browsers, sure, it also needs tree eaters, like elephants (mastadons and mamoths) and giraffs (there used to be a long necked camal/lama wasn't there?). Logging will do as a replacement for elephants. Rice? I think he is offended that the universe does not obey rules of human logic. Hell, neither do humans <G>.
