The allotment master report gives authorization #2700562 for the Campaign Against America’s Wild Horses.
The authorization use report indicates 267 cattle on a 5.5-month grazing season.
How many horses would the resource support?
The livestock type and grazing season would change but not the AUMs.
AUMs for horses = AUMs for livestock
The grazing season would be 12 months.
Let x = number of horses.
12x = 5.5(267)
Solve for x.
x = 122
The permit would be written for 122 wild horses.
