Wild Horses Should Be Killed or Sold, Government Board Decides...

Add wild horse to the list along with :
Bison
Wolves
Coyotes
Bobcats
Mountain lions
Bears
and a whole host of other species,

killed by your government, paid for with tax dollars, at the behest of special interests, namely ranching, logging, and mining industries and the cronies of the 'sagebrush rebellion' that's going on.

Nothing new, just a few more people to add to the list that need a bullet in their head.

 

They have better uses than getting ground up into dog food and glue. Maybe our elected idiots just don't have the collective brain power to figure out real solutions.

Humane Society very well could be involved, they were influential in getting wolves out of the crosshairs, albeit temporarily.

 

Like I said in Yankee's thread, I know where I'll make my last stand when the time comes.

 

Devil's advocate here... Population of the herd doubles every four years. No natural predators. Disease and starvation will be the sad results. This happens to deer populations when PETA and other non-informed animal rights activists try to limit deer hunting.

MAYBE... Introduce wolves into the area? Not kidding with this idea...

 

It's the spaniards fault they are on the east coast anyway. I say off to the glue factory so we can build more 7/11's, Chipotle's, and high rise condos. The last thing I want to read about in the paper is a heard of bison stampeding through a mid west Walmart trampling over a type 2 diabetic riding in an electric scooter.

 

having grown up in the sticks, ive seen what happens when herds get over populated. it aint petty boys. Id rather the cull the herd quickly than see that.

 

History of the Chincoteague Ponies

http://www.chincoteague.com/ponies.html

The Md part of the island uses sterilization, Va part has a yearly pony penning auction. Think chronic wasting disease with whitetail deer(without proper thinning) similar to a small farm bass pond- all fish suffer if left unchecked

 

It seems that the Humane Society is involved at least in an opinion aspect. From the original article:

Like many problems in our modern world, this is not a simple problem with simple solutions. One should realize that these animals, unlike many of the critters that SS champions, are not native to the land they occupy. They were introduced by man. That right there throws the ecological balance off. As the article states, they have no natural predators. It is similar to so many introduced species here in Florida, for example Burmese Pythons in the Everglades.

We, as humans, have a responsibilty to these animals. As the Humane Society suggests, there should be efforts to control the population similar to what some folks do with feral cat colonies. Some form of population control of humans might also be beneficial.

The bottom line, however, is that whenever we (humans) mess around with nature things get f*cked up.

 

Give those fockers a vasectomy, and me too while we're at it.

 

I don't know the deets about this situation DP, but in all the legislation regarding wolves the HS did a lot in terms of litigation and funding.

 

I want insects to take over the world!!

 

What does Black Lives Matter have to do with this?
