Headlight staff reports
CATRON COUNTY, N.M. – Every day across New Mexico, ranchers care for their land and livestock. They protect and develop water resources that provide wildlife habitat and maintain the wide open landscapes that our state is known for. Ranchers Tom and Callie Paterson, along with their daughters Lindsay and Caroline, run a cow-calf operation near Luna and Alma, in the southwestern part of the state.
