Bait traps have not been successful in capturing horses from remote locations, according to a report posted today by The Daily Sentinel. Forty seven horses have been gathered so far, with twenty seven permanently removed.
Stupid horses, why won’t they surrender their freedom for a life of government benefits?
The stated reason for the gather is overgrazing, but could it be that the horses have roamed beyond the WHR boundaries onto lands covered by grazing permits, robbing forage from the public-lands ranchers?
