I'm proud to say that I work for Hartley Feeders in the Texas Panhandle, and that I'm a native Texan. I have so much respect for the Cowboys and their knowledge and decision making in this noble and beautiful profession. ....God bless!
Good for this ranch. Thank God. We still have some real ranches in America owned by Americans. Praise God.
I’m impressed by teachers. Social workers. Cops. And the UPS man.
They help us all everyday and nobody sings their praises.
Thank you..gives me hope..I moved from indiana to Montana 3 yrs ago...no cowboys in Bozeman....movin outwards to find em
really??? You moved to Montana to see cowboys? Montana has been filling up with "outsiders" and those who have lived there for generations are being forced out. thx for nothing suzie.
My grandfather was born and raised on the King Ranch Luciano Lopez was born in 1916 Louiss okay he also had two brothers José Lopez and Luis Lopez Luis Lopez made the first corrals at King Ranch

Excellent story! A great book to read is Anglos and Mexicans in the making of Texas, 1836-1986. By David Montejano
🤗
It wasn’t the anglos, it was the Mexicans for a very long time and the Anglo’s didn’t do anything they just wanted to take credit, just bunch of cowboy wannabes
It's the size of a holding paddock in Australia.
thats small compared to Anne Station in Australia which is about 7 times bigger at 5.6 million plus acres or over 8800 square miles . which is a part of a larger station of 27 million acres or 42000 square miles
Bigger in space yes, head of cattle no.
Daang is that true ?
@@xcapitalmoney4089 yes
Yeh, but it's Australia, the bottom (ass#!%*) of the earth. We're talking about Texas here. Please remove your hat.
@@stevemelancon6207 LOL!!! Right On!!!
cattle ranch.not just a regular ranch
This helps me with school
Same
I attended school in Kingsville and one thing they tell you and is well known is that Captain King (as he is known) didn’t know anything about neither cattle nor ranching and the vaqueros/kiñenos thought him everything they knew.
Also, ranches in Mexico used to be run in a similar manner, by families and workers that lived and worked there and Mexican ranch owners referred to them as “Peones”.
some Hispanics did hold onto the land grants that they received from Spain. But, they got it on paper or formally entered into the records in some manner. even publishing it in the newspaper was a form of documentation.
Justice
@@lazaroloya60 wow, forgot I wrote a comment a year ago over here. hi. unfortunately, I don't think the state of Texas officially recognizes those land grant holders' right to not pay property taxes anymore, though. there were some Anglo-Saxon settlers who also got their land from land grants when Texas was a territory of Mexico. Everyone is expected to pay property taxes these days, but I know there have been legal battles here and there. I have always wondered if their deeds say "owner" or "tenant." You take care.
Joshua I was unfamiliar with Deseret Ranches in Florida so I looked it up, 290,000 acres, that is not even close to the Simplot families ZX Ranch in Oregon at approximately 1,300,000 total acres.
TS Ranch in Nevada is also over a million acres
The XIT was the biggest Ranch.
King Ranch has not been the biggest ranch in the US for many years, I believe the biggest cattle ranch now is ZX Ranch in Oregon over a million acres owned by JR Simplot the "potato king" or rather his family now that he has passed.
Yea but nobody likes the communist state of Oregon.
Somebody knows which way is up..
My family is part of the king ranch .... My family are davlia Rodriguez flores saenz and Garcia family those are part of kingville and i feel like i am at home in kingville
Interesting history of the area and the family and workers.
Holy Cow!
What was that impoverished town? Cruillas, Tamaulipas and surrounding areas. Burgos, Mendez and San Fernando. They bought cattle from all around the area, and employed many. Es un orgullo tener gente de nuestro pueblo haciendo historia en este rancho. Saludos!
👌
That's rt my brother. My great grandfather had a cattle ranch In Cruillas Tamualipas. Nothing impoverished about that..lol
no doubt simplot's is huge, but as far as cattle ranches go they only have 30,000 head, and deseret manages 44,000.
Question is,,, how'd the King family acquire soo much land?
El Comandante bought it cheap in the 1800's and the Business grew
Hispanic locals say much of the land was stolen. Are there records? Conveniently not. Many Tejanos lost there land and were murdered... wouldn't surprise me.
The king family stole most of the land they own from alot of families including my family. My great uncle was fighting the kings I'm court and did win some of the land back but not all of it. My great uncle was also the lawyer to LBJ the ex president. My family just started to receive the mineral rights and land back I believe it's by Roma we got the land back. Bit to sum it all up they stole most of it
Texas has real cheap land in the 1800s because there is not much mineral resources other than oil, which at the time hasn’t been discovered.
Once texas became independent the Mexican ranch owners were taxed bad to the point they couldn't pay, so they took their lands away from them, and all because they didn't speak English
Quite a while ago, I watched a tour of a HUGE cattle ranch in mid-eastern Tex, (I thought it WAS the King ranch). The ranch was kinda rough-round shaped and really big on a Texas map. The cowboys ,workers, and their families lived on the ranch, with their own schools, churches and pretty near everything! Most of them were Mexicans who had lived there for generations. Does anyone know what ranch this might be? I'd like to see it again! btw I don't have any kind of illusive dreams and I don't DO drugs! ............Unless....I dunno, maybe it wasn't Tex. or something and I've got that wrong!
half a dozen and another. probably most of the ranches in Texas are run like that. the kids may be home schooled, but most probably get bused into the town for school these days. But, the workers and owners and everyone just live on the same ranch and run it together like a family would. most workers eat breakfast and sometimes all meals with the family that owns it. many do have their own small chapel. many have their own gas storage and gas up at home. most ranches in texas are self-sufficient from mostly to all the way. any of them could be totally insular and produce everything if need be.
Sorry no idea you were talking head not acres, does that include all the cattle Simplots ZX finishes in their feedlot I wonder
Cowboys
The "KING RANCH" is a true American flag and land mark in america
And on Fords top of the line trucks!! For a ranch to get that bid is awesome!! Wonder how much Ford pays them to use there name!?!?
58,819
Just be careful when you drive in kingsville. When you hit a cattle youll be paying a fortune.
I believe King Ranch has not been the biggest for several years, they split some of it up, I think the potato king, Mr JR Simplot's ranch in Oregon, the ZX at 1.3 million plus acres is biggest now I believe.
TS Ranch in Nevada is also over a million acres. Simplot also has ranches in Nevada.
A Real Latino named "Beto"...Who knew???
Fuck you
Sure beats a fake latino named Francis.
Beto it’s a short name for ROBERTO, RIGOBERTO, ALBERTO,ADALBERTO.

KINGS RANCH TEXAS LARGEST CATTLE RANCH THE KING VICTOR ARTURO ZAMUDIO SR.1234567IOLLC. AND THE QUEEN HAILEE ARTURO ZAMUDIO SR 1234567IOLLC.
have a look up at the size of cattle stations ( u.s. called ranches )how about 9.4 thousand square miles. and a lot more. google Australian largest cattle stations.
Who Cares!...............Australia...phewp!..........It's...U.S.A.!!!
Then you got wt waggoner just sold to billionaire ass. Goodbye tradition. 6666 ranch mom and daughter left goodbye ranch soon this decade . See a pattern. Less and less family more and more self righteousness and greed spells less ranches. My rant .
Gary Baughman : Bucky Wharton married into the Waggoner family decades ago and like most greedy interlopers, they got greedy and forced the sale of my family's ranch. BTW, my G Grandfather, John Waggoner was Dan Waggoner's brother.
Now it's owned by a No Good Yankee Carpet Bagger. Go Figure......
I'm researching Richard king so this really helped thanks:):):):):):):):):):):):):):):) :o :]]
