Cattle drives were eliminated for several reasons. First of all, cattle drivers did not earn enough money selling cows because there weren't a lot of people in Texas at the time. The business was in the North and the East, where the demand and prices were greater. The issue was that when barbed wire fences became widely used, it blocked the cattle trails. In addition, the railroads which were used to transfer the cattle were extremely far away, and the journey to get to them was dangerous. Hope this helps!
