The Wild Free-Roaming Horses and Burro Act of 1971 decalres that the Wild Free-roaming Horses and Burros are living symbols of the HISTORIC and Pioneer sprit of the West. The Wild Horses and Burros that are now in long term holdings by the BLM, need to be returned to the Ranges.The males have been gelded and the females with the PZP birth controll, the age of the most of the Wild Horses & Burros is 8yrs and older,the money that has been spent(10Million -26Million per year per the BLM) on long term holdings can go for the 2 year birth controll to manage their numbers .Because of the agressive roundups by the BLM,The Wild Horses and Burros combined thru out the United States that are now in the Wild are 17,000 or LESS,we have 33,000 in Long term holding,the Cattle way out number the Wild Horses and Burros. It is est. 100 cows to 1 Wild Horse or Burro on PUBLIC LANDS,that the cattleman or cattlewomen pay 1.56 for each cow. If anyone would read the data, The Dept. of Wild Life has put a toll on the number of Wild Horses and Burros that we now have left. They are making millions on the ELK and BIG HORN SHEEP. Where I live there are three natural Watering areas that have been fenced off, only to the Wild Horses and Burros,all other wildlife can access the areas.
