The incident concluded yesterday, with 858 horses captured, 847 shipped, one released and ten dead.
There were no unaccounted-for animals.
The capture and removal goals were 1,106 and 1,068, respectively.
The death rate was 1.0%. Horses lost in the Day 9 truck rollover were not included in the total.
The capture total included 338 stallions, 397 mares and 123 foals.
Youngsters represented 14.3% of the animals gathered, suggesting the herd was growing at a rate of 9% per year.
Of the adults, 46.0% were male and 54.0% were female.
The number of horses removed cannot be determined at this time.
Up to 19 mares were to be treated with GonaCon Equine, a fertility control pesticide, before being returned to the range with up to 19 stallions.
The number of horses shipped on Day 11 was changed from 50 to 52.
A stallion was released, perhaps by accident, on Day 14. No details were given.
The operation supported three tenets of rangeland management:
- Pest control
- Resource enforcement
- Rancher protection.
Three HMAs were affected.
