Cattle for fire suppression

I lease my property out for cattle grazing. It makes a big difference in grasses for fire fuel. It has made no difference in elk numbers. Granted I dont have lots of cattle to prevent over grazing.

I can imagine some instances where it would help and some where it wouldn't. I just think it is obviously an oversimplified solution to a complex problem, which leads me to believe that there is another reason for doing it.
