The ranch is home to a breeding herd of paints and quarter horses, buffalo and over 1,000 cattle. The ranch is completely self sufficient. It grows and harvests its own hay, which is fed to the livestock in the winter months. The cattle herd has not set foot off the ranch since 1875. There is a variety of wildlife that live on the ranch which include prolific native species of deer, wild elk, black bear, mountain lions, bobcats and rarely seen lynx, raccoon, spotted and stripped skunks, blond and gray squirrels, wild turkeys, golden eagles, osprey and peregrine falcons.
