In a January 7 article by the Las Vegas Sun, Suzanne Roy, ringleader of the Campaign Against America’s Wild Horses, said “These practices should be relegated to the past where they belong and should be replaced by modern, humane conservation practices that keep wild horses wild.”
Refer to the decoder for the meaning of this statement. Roy lumps several concepts together in one sentence.
Like most advocates, she wants the roundups to stop but not the removals.
She wants helicopters replaced with pesticides.
She doesn’t tell the reporter why roundups occur.
She doesn’t discuss habitat loss and the difference between HAs and HMAs.
She doesn’t comment on the prevalence of livestock and the mismanagement of resources in the lawful home of wild horses.
In short, Roy and her staff want the ranchers to prevail and they want to be active participants in their victory.
