J. Brashier,
I read your comments and agree some what.
I just don't understand how this situation has
gotten so out of hand. How did this happen? I know the BLM has not done such a
great job in the past but I thought things had improved. 10,000 horses running
wild is just too hard for me to fathom. It would seem that these horses would be
in people's backyards.
It is not just the people who adopt the mustangs
who don't have a clue. The kind of stories you describe happen all over the
place to all breeds of horses, at all different barns. No matter, I still feel
your frustration. I don't want to see horses butchered for any reason. I would
like to see more birth control. Is that taboo?
Who would you recommend people contact for more
info on this matter? Besides the BLM. My curiosity is peaked now and I want some
answers.
All you endurance riders out west, do you ever see
wild herds roaming on your rides? How many, how often? With that many loose
horses, somebody must be seeing them.
