Up to $20 million was available for partnerships with private landowners to provide sanctuaries for wild horses according to a notice from 2011.
The announcement does not explain the BLM’s expectations but a program that helps interested groups (not the advocates) acquire or control private properties attached to public lands would serve a useful purpose today.
The advocates would only be interested in a program that helps them buy pesticides so they can beat the horse populations down in favor of livestock.
If a proposed sanctuary doesn’t include public lands and doesn’t displace livestock therefrom, it’s not worthy of your support.

They’re not putting out hay to draw wild horses away from populated areas, they’re putting out propaganda to distract you from the truth.
Such as the mass sterilization program on the Virginia Range.
Getting rid of nine times ninety-nine would be a lowball estimate.
How about the equivalent of nine Antelope-Moriah roundups?
Not because the land can’t support that many but because the bureaucrats said so.
Why don’t they write about that?

The advocates have until the end of the year to take the herd from 274 to 243 according to a story by KPHO News.
That would require a death rate of nearly 12%.
274 × (1 – .12) = 241
Although the death rate is increasing along with the average age of the herd (because few if any new foals are hitting the ground), it’s not enough to achieve the goal.
The first step would be to mend fences with Jackie Hughes and bring her into the fold.
Then develop a plan for capture, removal and placement into private care, just like the roundups they’ve always condemned.

Was this post written by a woman who sees the world not as it is but the way she thinks it should be?
Or maybe she reached her conclusion after watching herds where mares can’t be mares and the natural order has been disrupted by massive human involvement?

RTF ringleader Neda DeMayo said the horses live as they’re designed to live—except for one minor detail.
She’s been pummeling the mares with a “non-hormonal, reversible birth control vaccine,” referred to on these pages as an ovary-killing pesticide, since 1999.

Instead, you decided to watch the big game and now it’s too late.
The advocacy groups need more dupes to advance their anti-horse agenda.

The advocates won’t say it.
The bureaucrats tiptoe around it.
The politicians throw money at it.
What are they trying to accomplish?
The BLM page concerning range and herd health, which applies to the wild horse and burro program not the grazing program, says PZP is only effective for approximately one year, unless four or more shots are given over time.
What do you suppose they mean by that?

If the BLM hears too many complaints about the situation they may order a nuisance roundup.
The 80-acre parcel serving as a laydown yard for Project Greenlink is surrounded by public lands identified for cattle, not wild horses and burros.
A solution might be for the contractor to build a sturdier fence while letting the water run onto public lands as it does now so the animals can continue to drink.
Any talk about new trenches or pipes or tanks on public lands would likely trigger a NEPA review and months or years of delay before anything happens in the field.
