    A few hundred years ago there were 3 times more roaming bison than there are cows in the US today, so gas isn’t really an issue.

    I have my doubts that this is correct, or a very conveniently selective statistic, especially considering this

    Livestock make up 62% of the world’s mammal biomass; humans account for 34%; and wild mammals are just 4%.
