Callaghan Roundup Announced

The incident will begin on or about July 10 according to the news release.

The capture and removal goals are 2,000 each.

Burros that have migrated into the Complex will also be taken into custody.

A helicopter will push the animals into the traps.

Operations will be open to public observation on a limited basis, which contradicts a closure notice issued today.

Animals not put down at the temporary holding pens will be taken to the off-range corrals at Palomino Valley and the privately owned facility known as Indian Lakes.

There are no plans to treat any of the mares with fertility control pesticides and return them to the range.

The Complex is subject to permitted grazing.
