Wes Seward is a district livestock investigator for Montana's Department of Livestock, a state agency with a history that reaches back to before the state's formation with a mission to ensure law and order within the state's expansive ranching industry. The department serves as the inspiration for what's known as the Montana Livestock Administration on the hit show 'Yellowstone.' On TV, actor Kevin Costner plays the part of John Dutton who runs a massive ranch and leads the livestock admin. While the Duttons use the fictional Montana Livestock Administration to bend the law to protect their wealth, Seward sees his real-life role with the state livestock department in a different light.
