Despite ongoing legal challenges, the BLM announced today the beginning of a plan to remove nearly 5,000 wild horses over a three-year period from the Divide Basin, Salt Wells Creek and Adobe Town HMAs in southern Wyoming.
Divide Basin and Salt Wells Creek will be zeroed out, reducing the number of HMAs from 177 to 175, and Adobe Town will be trimmed back, as illustrated in the map.
The scoping letter was placed in the project folder along with a press release.
Comments will be accepted through July 8.
