New Documentary Looks at Wild Horse Roundups
The film’s title is “America’s War on Wild Horses and Burros,” according to a story by KOLO News.
There is a war, but it’s not being prosecuted on behalf of the American people.
The beneficiaries are hunters and ranchers.
The advocates are the foot soldiers, firing pesticide-laced darts at will.
Air support is provided by the legacy contractors.
Federal agencies coordinate the attacks, with input from state and local officials.
Animals not killed in battle will spend the rest of their lives in concentration camps.
Will any of this be reflected in the film?
The article did not provide a link to the trailer or director’s website.

Salt River Advocates Can’t Get No Respect?
Poor babies.
They don’t deserve any credit.
They should not be paid.
They’re destroying the herd with ovary-killing pesticides.

The Salt River Wild Horse Darting Group is an affiliate of the Campaign Against America’s Wild Horses, a leader in nonmotorized removal, supporter of the Path Forward and fierce opponent of principal use.
The Path Forward: They Hated It Before They Loved It
The Campaign Against America’s Wild Horses, a leader in mass sterilization and fierce opponent of principal use, has flip-flopped on the issue.
Consider this archived Q&A from 2019 in which they described the plan as dangerous.
Today, they like it.
At last week’s WHBAB meeting, the executive director told the Board that she embraces it, an overture to the ranchers and ranching sympathizers sitting thereon.
The goal was—and still is—ranching superiority in the lawful homes of wild horses, sometimes referred to as achieving and maintaining AMLs.
Status of Virginia Range Sterilization Program?
The Campaign Against America’s Wild Horses, a leader in nonmotorized removal, supporter of the Path Forward and fierce opponent of principal use, has not posted reports for October, November and December to its Virginia Range darting page.
These frauds want more transparency during roundups, such as cameras on helicopters, but don’t want you looking over their shoulder as they destroy entire herds.

AMLs Not Artificially Low?
If the bureaucrats assign forage to livestock in areas identified for wild horses, the AMLs are artificially low.
They represent the number of horses allowed by plan, not the number of horses the land can support.
For example, the Little Colorado HMA supports livestock equivalent to 3,750 wild horses and has an AML of 100. It could go as high as 3,850.
The AML is artificially low, carefully chosen to protect ranching interests, not wild horses.
Proponents of animal agriculture want you to think that AMLs represent a physical limit, such as the speed of light, not an administrative limit.
This line of thinking drives the roundups and darting programs.

WHBAB Livestream to Include Public Comments
The feed should start around 8 AM PT today.
The comment session runs from 1 PM to 2 PM according to the agenda.
The advocates, defeated a long time ago, will probably demand greater use of pesticides and acceptance of mass sterilization in lieu of motorized removal.

Batman Saves Robin from Wild Horse Advocates
He could have sent the boy to a Betty Ford clinic or similar institution, where he would be deprogrammed, cured of his obsession with pesticides and educated in intellectual honesty, but this is faster and more effective.

Beware of the wild horse advocates.

How Did Mustang Monument Rate as a Wild Horse Refuge?
The plan was to convert the Spruce Allotment to a wild horse eco-sanctuary with a capacity of 900 animals.
The base property consisted of approximately 14,000 deeded acres with grazing preference on over 500,000 public acres.
The facility included public lands, would displace livestock therefrom and had a land ratio of roughly 36 public acres for every deeded acre.

The downside was that it overlapped three HMAs, resulting in the loss of up to three breeding populations, which is unacceptable.
The resort offered high-end guest accommodations, fine dining and other amenities, which are not necessary for a wild horse refuge.

Sand Wash Advocate Illustrates Unlawful Use of Pesticides

A diploma from the Billings School of PZP Darting and Public Deception won’t protect you from criminal investigation.
Fortunately, those who would look into the matter want the horses gone as much as those pulling the trigger, so there’s not much to worry about.

BLM to Launch Wild Horse Annie Donations Website?
The program would allow individuals to donate up to $249 per year to support the protection and management of wild horses and burros on public lands according to the Off-Range Report for the January 7 WHBAB meeting.
The report does not acknowledge that the land can support many more animals than the government admits and that the wild horse and burro program has become a grazing program ancillary.

The opening was not announced at the BLM news site but may have been distributed on socialist media or sent directly to the advocacy groups.

Foal-Free Friday, R.I.P. Edition
The 118th Congress has termed out and with it two bills that threatened wild horses.
Tell your elected representatives you want wild horses managed the way Velma and the 92nd Congress intended, not the way the advocates and their political allies envision.

New Year, Same Lies
The advocates never stop.

New Year’s Resolution That Helps Wild Horses

Reiterating: Sanctuaries Are Not the Answer
In general, they represent victory for the ranchers and failure for the horses, which is why the advocates like them.
There is a special case, however, where they should be considered: The deeded acreage has preference on one or more grazing allotments.
These properties give you more value for your investment.
Each private acre should control three or more public acres.
They should not overlap areas identified for wild horses.
If they don’t displace livestock from public lands, they’re not worthy of your support.

President of Pine Nut Advocates Sells Land in Buckeye Allotment
The APNs of her high-end parcels tell you they’re in Township 12, Range 21, Sections 4 and 5.

That puts them in the Buckeye Allotment.
The seller, who will pay her commission, holds most of the active AUMs therein.
You wouldn’t want the resource lost to the equine pests, right?
Please donate if you want this charade to continue.

At a 3% commission, she will collect around $129,000 from the seller, who holds most of the active AUMs in the Buckeye Allotment.
Would that explain her involvement in the “strong birth control program?”
