Did you know that there is a “1971 Wild Free-Roaming Horses and Burros Act?” Probably not, but then when one considers the volume of legislation created just at the federal level — legislation that remains in force, the normal reaction would be one of astonishment, of being utterly overwhelmed, of one’s eyes just glazing over. No wonder congressmen and senators have no idea what they’re voting on much of the time.
Anyway, apparently we have a crisis of excess horses and burrows running wild in western states. Enter the Bureau of Land Management and a dispute they have with the Humane Society of the United States.
Here’s the crisis in a nutshell for your consideration.
Turn them loose in the wild
Told you they would do it.
MURDERERS
This is for all you bunny huggers. In just the past four years, wild horse and burro management has cost U.S. taxpayers more than $291 million, including $49 million annually to care for 46,000 captured feral horses in off-range corals. This annual budget isalmost 10 times bigger than budgets allotted to save many endangered species; managing wild horses is sapping agency resources, directly andindirectly driving native species to extinction.The issue has become one of imagery,not integrity, and this is where science is losing out. If people value feral horses more than native birds, elk, pronghorn, or the fragile native plants that are overgrazed into oblivion by burgeoning horse herds, then no amount of evidence will change their minds.
Howe about if we euthanize you, Hillary, Bill, Kaine, and all the other corrupt people in our government . Leave the horses alone, or you will hear from the animal activists
Are the old people going to be next?
Nooooo
I hope someone can stop this disgraceful act of cruelty leave the horses alone
