The article begins with a faulty assumption.
The title should say “How should Utah fix the mismanagement of resources in the lawful homes of wild horses and burros?” not “How should Utah rein in the wild horse and burro problem?”
The writer noted that wild horse and burro numbers in the state far exceed appropriate management levels and that animals are straying outside of federal management areas.
So what? AMLs don’t indicate carrying capacities.
Those sounding the alarm are usually involved with animal agriculture.
Putting more wild horses in private sanctuaries, identified as a possible solution, is exactly what they want.
If a proposed facility doesn’t include public lands and doesn’t displace livestock therefrom, it’s not worthy of your support.
