The Campaign Against America’s Wild Horses said in a news flash last week that it is providing logistical, financial and darting support for the fertility control program in Nevada’s Pine Nut Mountains, “further proving the feasibility of this approach to keeping wild horses wild and in balance with their environment.”
In balance with their environment?
Sounds like they’re reading from the BLM playbook.
That means shrinking the herds so they fit into the tiny resource boxes the bureaucrats have given them, with most of their food and water going to the public-lands ranchers.
They’re still referring to PZP as a fertility control vaccine, not an ovary-killing pesticide.
As for the Land Conservancy Project, are they going to turn it into a pig farm with laboratory to produce more poison? Maybe call it Billings Unit 2.
With 3,300 acres, there’s plenty of room for a PZP darting school complete with free-roaming horses for target practice.
Who would support these efforts, besides its uninformed and misinformed base?
- Hunters
- Ranchers
- Farm bureaus
- Public lands councils
- Stockgrowers associations
- Cattlemen’s groups
- Colleges and universities
- Societies for rangeland management
- Agribusiness
