Southern Range Land And Cattle Company

Southern Range Land And Cattle Company raises Wagyu cattle in Elizabeth, Colorado, on the Eastern Plains near Colorado Springs. Owner Sam Scott follows industry standards for genetic health screenings and participates in registry programs that monitor herd performance.

Scott’s background builds on regional ranching traditions in Colorado’s high plains, providing deep familiarity with local ecosystems. Cattle graze on rotational pastures interspersed with native sagebrush and have access to freshwater ponds throughout the year. Calves spend time in small groups to foster social bonds and are accustomed to routine human interaction from an early age.

The ranch’s approach balances natural forage with custom mineral blends to promote consistent marbling and robust growth. These practices help maintain herd health and contribute to a reliable supply of beef valued by local processors and chefs. The family-run operation reflects a commitment to sustainable land stewardship and careful animal welfare.
