Wyoming Gov Says Wild Horses Are Stealing from School Children | Straight from the Horse's Heart

Wyoming Gov Says Wild Horses Are Stealing from School Children | Straight from the Horse's Heart



“If dumb could dumber it just occurred in the State of Wyoming
as Governor Mead crawled into bed with the state’s welfare ranchers by
pointing a finger (which one?) at the state’s few remaining wild horses for stealing the grass right out of private cattle’s mouths and money away from school children.  “DOINK”

The
few horses that survive on millions of acres are outnumbered hundreds
to one by cattle and sheep and the (allegedly) federally protected
horses are at fault?!?!  NOT!

Set
aside all of your sensibilities and read the official press release,
below, put out by the Gov’s office; it is  frighting on so many levels
that I am afraid to commit my thoughts to text.  I guess the word
incredulous comes to mind accompanied by a very loud and melodramatic
sigh.  Color me dumbfounded…but still, we keep the faith!” ~ R.T.

Over the course of several weeks, with no transparency (unless a member
of the public happened to call to directly ask), the BLM recently
shipped about 1,770 wild horses, who were supposedly “living out their
lives” on the Teterville Long Term Holding Pasture in Kansas, to other
long term holding pastures and to a TEMPORARY SHORT TERM HOLDING FACILITY, in feedlot like conditions.

Lawsuit Filed to Halt BLM’s Scheduled Wild Horse Roundup on the Wyoming Checkerboard | Straight from the Horse's Heart\



Carol Walker, plaintiff in the case and Wild Horse Freedom
Federation board member said,” BLM is primed and ready to annihilate
wild horse families in the Adobe Town HMA despite the fact that the vast
majority of these horses do not even live in the Checkerboard.”  The
noted photographer and author went on to say, “the horses would not have
a chance if this action goes forward.  They’ll be destined to a life of
incarceration and the American public will lose an iconic symbol of
freedom and independence.”
