We hear too often "it's all gone now" and that's just not true. Yes, a lot of places are gone, erased for development of houses, strip malls, warehouses, roads, but it's not ALL gone. We have a lot of Florida that's protected and much more to go.

"Far better it is to dare mighty things, to win glorious triumphs, even though checkered by failure, than to take rank with those poor spirits who neither enjoy nor suffer much, because they live in the gray twilight that knows neither victory nor defeat". -Teddy Roosevelt

What's a "lead steer" and what does this have to do with Florida? This handsome lead steer was donated for the Great Florida Cattle Drive by Alex John's, a former president of the FL Cattlemen's Assoc, and member of the Seminole Tribe of Florida. This 8 year old castrated bull calmly set the pace and lead the herd over a 54 mile drive.

The Great Florida Cattle Drive is a reenactment of open range days, before the land was fenced off, and cattle were rounded up and slowly driven across the state to market. Florida’s cattle heritage goes all the way back to 1521 with the arrival of Ponce de Leon, afterwards, massive herds descended from Andalusian breeds were kept on Payne's Prairie by Seminole people, then during the Civil War the "Cattle Cavalry" drove herds of wild Cracker Cows north to feed the Confederate army.

Ranching is still big in Florida and has become progressively more important because it provides critical acreage for the Florida Wildlife Corridor. Wild animals, and native plants don't typically thrive in walled neighborhoods or parking lots but they can definitely live on ranches.

Florida — A Land to Remember
I was fortunate to have the opportunity to document this family making an early morning cattle drive. Just like the MacIvey’s in A Land Remembered, this family is still living the Florida tradition that began in the 1800s.
I’ve spent a good portion of my life photographing the wet jungles, creeks, and prairies of the Florida wilderness. My goal has always been to help those who may not know the real beauty of Florida understand the importance of protecting and preserving this land.
Along the way, I came to understand the importance, history, and quiet beauty of our prairie cattle country. I photograph it whenever I’m given the opportunity, and now I want to make a deliberate effort to document as much of it as I can in the time I have left to make images.
If you are a cattle family in Florida and would be interested in me visiting and photographing your ranch, please reach out via private message. I hope to meet as many of you as I can and record your piece of paradise.
Remember to remember.

Florida cowboy Cary Lightsey carries on a long Sunshine State tradition of cattle keeping. ⁠
⁠
Photographer and Flamingo columnist Carlton Ward Jr. () joined the sixth-generation cowboy on his Tiger Creek Ranch, where Lightsey herded cows with Lake Kissimmee in the background. ⁠
⁠
Ranch lands like these are "the best hope for keeping the existing green spaces connected," Ward writes.
