Freedom for Wild Horses

39. The Consequences of a Roundup: The White Mountain Herd


Listen Later

The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) recently reused an outdated assessment and failed to conduct a new count despite severe winter conditions that reduced horse numbers. The roundup of the White Mountain Herd, which involved the use of helicopters, resulted in significant stress for the horses. 

 

In this episode, I explain why I call the BLM's White Mountain wild horse roundup “a pre-zero roundup,” and how The Rock Springs Grazing Association’s influence in limiting wild horse populations, and the subsequent lack of transparency regarding post-roundup counts, are significant concerns. To safeguard the future of wild horses and prevent further herd reductions, it is crucial to spread awareness. This episode shares how you can make a difference.
