It would have an AML of 1,463 and a stocking rate of 7.8 wild horses per thousand public acres.
The allotment offers 17,556 active AUMs on 187,743 public acres in southwestern Idaho, according to the Allotment Master Report.
The bureaucrats and ranchers tell us that public lands in the western U.S. can only support one wild horse per thousand acres (27,000 animals on 27 million acres).
The advocates indicate their agreement through their darting programs.
If it was an HMA, the AML would be around 190 and 1,273 wild horses would be consigned to off-range holding because of permitted grazing.
