Cumulative totals through 01-31-20, per the BLM roundup page for the Eagle Complex:
- 949 animals gathered
- 12 deaths (1.3%)
- 417 studs (44.1%)
- 528 mares (55.9%)
- 4 new foals (2019 foals counted as adults)
The proportions of studs and mares are still outside of statistical limits corresponding to n = 945 and p-bar = .50. These results do not look like they came from a process that produces 50% males and 50% females. Why?
The thriving ecological balance is now only 651 wild horses away (1,700 horses to be gathered − 100 to be returned − 949).
