    But then you'd have the ranchers worrying about having their livestock accidentally shot or irritated by the hunters roaming around.

    I'm pretty sure the goal is to have few to no humans needing to be involved in the management of larger and larger areas of land and larger and larger herds of livestock.

    Even guardian dogs would be viewed negatively as there's another living thing that 1) needs to be taken care of and 2) does what all living things do (which is its own thing) that might not sync up with the rancher's goals.
