If Beaver Creek Was Managed Principally for Wild Horses

The AML would be 1,188 and the stocking rate would be 15.8 animals per thousand public acres.

The allotment, located northwest of Wells, NV, offers 14,258 active AUMs on 75,139 public acres, according to the Allotment Master Report.

Why is this important?

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 reinforce the story with their darting programs.

If it was an HMA, the AML would be 75 and 1,113 horses would be consigned to off-range holding because of permitted grazing.
