Helping control the wild horse population
If you ask Congress to block free and clear sales and/or
euthenization without asking them to triple the funding to properly
manage and warehouse the excess horses and free-roaming horse you
are encouraging Congress's disasterous management of the horses in
the Wild Horse and Burro Program! If you don't want free and clear
horse sales, please ask Congress to tripple the funding for the Wild
Horse and Burro Program. As it is now the Humane Society should be
asking the courts to remove the wild horses from the abussive
management practises created by Congress. CONGRESS NEEDS TO BECOME

By keeping the excess wild horses out of the slaughter house, the
wild horse advocates are the problem, not the solution. If the BLM
is unable to dispose of the excess horses as the populations rise it
damages the range and reduces the resources the horses depend
on. Their body condition deteriates and leads to a painful death in
some cases. That is how horses self regulate their population and
is happening now on many ranges. Allow horses to be sold free and
clear or dramatically increase funding to warehouse the excess
horses!

Author: Use mountain lions to control wild horses
Show me the research showing mountain lions controlling wild horse
populations. It does not exist! Yes, in some situations mountain
lions have helped control wild horse populations, but in most areas
would wipe out other wildlife at the densities needed to control the
horses.

Congress looks at wild horses (again), and there are no easy
solutions
Ranchers, Range Managers or the BLM are not the problem, they have
the knowledge and ability to properly manage the freeroaming
horses. Wild horse advocates and Congress prevent them from getting
the job done. We need to listen to the people that have the
experience and knowledge and let them get the job done.
New study of wild horses launched
Sixteen wild horses collared for study
We don’t need studies! We already know how to manage horses on the
range. We need to ignore the wild horse advocates and congress
either needs to change the laws for wild horses or drastically
increase the funding for the Wild Horse Program. The BLM needs to
be given the tools to manage the horses.

BLM Seeks Comment on Eastern Nevada Horse Gather EA
Time for BLM to revisit its wild horse policies, says advocacy
group’s white paper
Horsetalk.co.nz would not print my comment. So here it is:
If whff has all the information they claim, they could take the BLM
Wild Horse and Burro Program to court and get results, but they
don't. They have a conspiracy theory which has no value or
meaning. Congress needs to quit letting organizations like whff
influence them. Congress should rely on information from solid
organizations like the National Wild Horse and Burro Rangeland
Management Coalition (http://www.wildhorserange.org/), The Wildlife
Society (http://wildlife.org/) and study the National Academies of
Science(NAS) 2013 Report, Using Science to Improve the BLM Wild
Horse and Burro Program: A Way Forward
(https://www.nap.edu/read/13511/chapter/1). If Congress would pay
more attention to organizations like these, ignore the wild horse
advocates and it would be possible for the BLM to properly manage
the horses. The BLM has the knowledge and the ability to manage the
free-roaming horses but Congress needs to allow and fund the
removal of excess horses and allow the excess horses to be sold,
euthanized or fully fund the off-range storage costs.

They are not being ignored. They are often not practical and the

the Wild Horse and Burro Act of 1971 and/or supply more funding.

animals are living in the same harsh conditions working animals
world wide were before 1920. 1920 is an arbituary date I picked
because in World War 1 the horses, mules and burros serving in the
war had far worse conditions. Your horse may be a pet, a member of
the family or just deeply cared for. A working horse is not going
to receive the same treatment as a pet, they are working
horses. The same goes for a free-roaming horse, don’t expect them
to be treated like pets.

our government $26,897 for each horse given away. If people wish to
