Chico Basin Ranch
The Chico Basin Ranch is a working cattle ranch thirty minutes southeast of Colorado Springs, Colorado. The Chico Basin is owned by the Colorado State Land Board, and managed by Ranchlands, Duke and Janet Phillips' family based ranch management company.〔 The cattle raised on the ranch are grass fed and no hormones added.〔 Working cowboys tend to the cattle primarily using quarter horses born and trained on the ranch.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.chicobasinranch.com/ )〕 The Chico Basin now has a horse sanctuary for old or injured horses. Not only is the Chico Basin a working cattle ranch, it is also a wildlife preserve. The Chico Basin works with the Rocky Mountain Bird Observatory to band migratory birds. This activity is also open to schools and universities to come and learn about birds.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.rmbo.org/v3/OurWork/Education/BirdBanding.aspx )〕 Free programs are offered to all ages of children and adults to learn about wildlife and ranch life.〔
==History==
The Chico Basin Ranch is owned by the Colorado State Land Board. The Colorado State Land Board was founded in 1876 to manage land given by the federal government to the state and creates revenue for some of the state’s foundations and public education. The Chico Basin Ranch is overseen by the part of the Colorado State Land Board that leases out agricultural farm land.〔 Cattle first grazed on Chico Basin lands in the mid-1800s. The famous cattleman, Charles Goodnight, grazed many of his cattle on the present day Chico Basin Ranch.〔 The HOP Ranch, formed by William Holmes and two Detroit business partners at the north end of Chico Basin Ranch, started operations in 1871.〔"Sale Of The Holmes Ranch Recalls Days When Roundups Were Great Events." Colorado Springs Gazette Telegraph. December 2, 1928.〕 Over the next hundred years the ranch land changed hands several times, eventually coming under the jurisdiction of the Pueblo Army Depot.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://trustlands.state.co.us/NewsandMedia/Pages/AbouttheSLB.aspx )〕 The Chico is currently managed by Duke and Janet Phillips who stress the point of land conservation. The Colorado State Land Board bought the 87,000 acres of land and in 1999 made a one of a kind lease with the Phillips family. The Phillips are able to lease the land for twenty-five years.
