    Wild Horses Need OUR HELP!!

    in HERD CHAT

    I am doing a GT (Gifted and Talented, if you don't know) project about basically what the title of this post says. The major topic is Wildlife Management and Conservation, but I am focusing on wild horses. This idea was sparked when I watched the Cloud series on PBS (you can type in "Cloud Wild Stallion" in the search thing to watch the videos), and my teacher sent me a list of links. Please check them out and join the fight to keep wild horses free and thriving!

    The book I was talking about earlier by Marguerite Henry is called Mustang Wild Spirit of the West. It is based off of true events and how the problem was solved (sort of). It is very excellent.

    Exactly, and get this: When the BLM takes horses off the range in roundups, there is more food left for the other wild horses that are still there. So the families of wild horses that are still wild can reproduce more, making the numbers bigger. The BLM is creating the problem it's trying to solve!!

    Horses are God's beautiful creation. They should not be slaughtered . Not for profit.

    President Trump wants to do that..? Some things are good about him.. but definitely not this. Just let the horses run free, every horse wasnt meant to be owned or slaughtered, we have to let them be free.

    Exactly!!!!!! There is another book I read that talks about this some. It is called The Eighty Dollar Champion. It is a true story about this old plow horse who almost got sent to the slaughter house, but by a stroke of luck, he gets rescued.

    I can understand if someone goes hunting for food(like ducks, or cattle. When they need it), but bringing wild horses to extinction is purely wrong.
