More WHBAB Meeting Materials Posted

The list includes updates from the Forest Service and BLM for on-range and off-range programs.

The Facility Report shows 57,045 horses and 2,440 burros in off-range holding.

Heavy precipitation across the west alleviated the effects of drought but there are no remarks about winterkill.

A new contract for catch-treat-release goes into effect later this year.

A report showing forage allocations for livestock in the lawful homes of wild horses and burros was not provided.

There is no discussion regarding the use of ovary-killing pesticides to control horses and burros that interfere with animal agriculture, a purpose for which the products were not registered.
