On-Site observations by Carol Walker ~ Director of Field Documentation for Wild Horse Freedom Federation
“It is a short day for the Checkerboard roundup as the helicopters do the final sweeps to make sure they got every last horse in this area…”
Here I am again in the Rock Springs BLM parking lot before dawn waiting to head out to the trap. This is Day 3 of the Checkerboard Roundup in Wyoming. I was told last night they only have a few horses left to capture at this site, and I may or may not see anything given we cannot see the trap or the approach to it at this site.
This is in Great Divide Basin. I am hoping that group of beautiful bachelors that eluded capture yesterday are headed far far north outside the Checkerboard.
I have been at the observation site for an hour. I finally heard both helicopters, and one was hovering for a while on the other side of the hill near the trap so I assume some horses were brought in out of my line of site. Now both helicopters are working at a distance looking for horses, needing to get the last few that remain in this area.
Just now two groups of three each with a stallion, mare and foal came through together and behind the hill with the trap. Then a grey stallion was driving a bay mare and a sorrel mare with a black foal lagging way behind. He was running, trying to catch up to his family the last I saw. He looked like he was at least a couple of months old and in good condition, so hopefully he caught up before his family was moved into the trap. Usually if a foal is separated from its family the Cattoors will send a rider to get the foal, but no rider has come out. I did ask about the foal and his family, and just found out that the little black foal was reunited with his family in the trap.
It is a short day for the Checkerboard roundup as the helicopters do the final sweeps to make sure they got every last horse in this area before they break down the trap and move it to another area in Great Divide Basin for tomorrow.
As I drive by Patrick Draw road where I had spent some time with 6 families who were peacefully grazing there three days ago, it looks so empty, with no wild horses anywhere to be found. This is the future of the rest of the Checkerboard lands in Wyoming.

We ae all doomed. The BLM has aligned with the cattle interests today, they are using each other to eliminate the horses and burros. Tomorrow the government will betray the cattle ranchers for bigger fish, bigger money. They can be bought as with all in our government today. There is not a hero among them, not one champion of the majority of us. There are forces at work here that they do not want us to understand and even though we think we know what is going on, we are only seeing what we are allowed to see. We are the government, we the people. What is happening and can it be stopped? How do we stop the little Hitlers from prevailing (Harry Reid and his ilk)? Well, at least I can tweet, email, and call for now. One of the BLM pr people actually returned my call on Monday and thankfully I was able to refute every last lie she was telling me.

As much as I think the race horse industry contributes to the problem, there may be some of the more understanding, intelligent racehorse people who would get it, that by reducing and extincting the mustang, they are being deprived of a vital contributing genetic pool. (Perhaps some may want to help– some may have much influence.) My theory is because of their wildness and more natural life, their genes are may be stronger and better in many ways than some of the top race horses. And these genes are disappearing progressively every day, I’d say forever. As each thing we devalue and lose is actually more valuable than we can imagine, and we have little idea the immensity and transcendence we are deprived of. I’d say this is an emergency of the largest magnitude! This is the post I was looking at that made me start thinking about that. https://www.facebook.com/BlackCaviarOfficial/photos/pcb.728411027196250/728410313862988/?type=1&theater

Martha, it’s not just theory – TB horses all trace back to only 3 horses, and wild horses as we know have endured natural selection pressures for millennia. The domestic horse gene pool has been shown to be drastically bottlenecked, and in my lifetime I can vouch for the results – some superstars and a lot of horses that can’t think, have hopeless hooves, and structural flaws which often make them either unrideable or dangerous. And expensive…

Apparently public lands are only for the wealthy ranchers to enjoy and exploit, and our tax dollars to help support and make them even wealthier. I’m sure they look down on people who actually need welfare. The BLM is so corrupt! Where are all of the celebrities and PETA and the Humane Society? Why are the wealthy in this country able to buy politicians and judges? They’ve even bought off the Supreme Court. How are regular American citizens supposed to compete with that? If there are so many millions of acres of public lands, why can’t some of it be designated strictly for the wild horses and burros and the captured ones rehomed there? This whole situation just sucks. I will never eat beef again, not that that will matter since most of the welfare rancher beef is being shipped overseas.

Land was designated for the wild horses and burros as far back as 1971, when the LAW was passed by Congress that gave the BLM their “job.” They were charged to “Protect and maintain the free-roaming wild horses and burros of this country.” Need I say more? — BTW: Celebrities just show up for photo ops; PETA and HSUS spend more $$$ on administration and “photo ops” than they do on the animals’ behalf. HSUS befriended Michael Vick and made him a ‘spokesperson’ … seriously? They self-promote, ad nauseum. They will do NOTHING for the horses of this country … wild or domestic. If all (of them) were actually doing their advertised roles, the S.A.F.E. Act would have been passed over a year ago! Instead, that bill is still held prisoner in a congressional committee by folks who want horse slaughter to come back to the USA; and further, Speaker of the House, John Boehner has vowed to “never let this bill come to the floor of the House for a vote!” Really, John? Whose HOUSE does he think it is? Sen. Harry Reid (NV), Senate Majority Leader, inspired the secretly drafted BURNS Amendment, which then allowed BLM to release captive wild horses to known killer buyers. They don’t call him “Dirty Harry” for nothing. — We are in a fight where we are out-muscled and out-spent by the very people we elected as our “representatives.” And that goes for anywhere in the country! The time is coming to REMEMBER IN NOVEMBER!

Looking at these photos I am puzzled by how it has been described as an area that is “too difficult” for private owners to fence out wildlife (one excuse for this situation). There are canyons in some parts but not most of this area. It’s certainly flat enough for haul roads and oil tanks.
LikeLike
I don’t think the “too difficult” theory holds up here either. I think it is more a matter of convenience and expense. Fences cost money, and then you lose access to all of that free grazing land for the cattle if you have to keep them behind your fence in order to keep the wildlife out. I just keep thinking that with all of the millions of acres of public lands out there, that there has to be enough to support the remaining wild herds as well as the already captured equines if it could be devoted exclusively to wildlife. Do people really have to be that greedy?
LikeLike
Vickie, I was thinking specifically about the “fence out” law in WY and how it has been somehow circumvented for a handful of RSGA ranchers who don’t want to obey the same laws every other citizen must. Some writers have mentioned it was “too difficult” or “impractical” … but compared to what? If other businesses can write off building fences as an expense, why isn’t the playing field the same for all private interests? How is it these few are above the law?

Animal Advocates Sue Bureau of Land Management Over Western Horses and Withheld Public Records

Roundups of Wild Horses on Public Lands Stir Controversy, Feature in Documentary Exposé
A Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit was filed this month against the federal Bureau of Land Management (BLM) for withholding public records from filmmaker James Kleinert. The BLM has been investigating Kleinert and his film company, presumably in retaliation for making documentary films Wild Horses & Renegades,
Saving the American Wild Horse, and Wild Horse Spirit, which expose the BLM’s cruel roundups of wild horses on public land and allege corruption within the Department of the Interior. “Roundups” involve herding horses into corrals using helicopters and separating them from their families. The national non-profit Animal Legal Defense Fund (ALDF) has reason to believe that wild horses corralled by the BLM end up for sale for slaughter in Mexico and Canada. The federal lawsuit was filed September 3, 2014 in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia. ALDF is providing consulting assistance to Kleinert’s attorney, Daniel J. Stotter.
The lawsuit, Kleinert v. Bureau of Land Management, alleges that the BLM violated its duty under FOIA to provide records documenting the BLM’s investigation of Kleinert and his film company as he filmed roundups over the last decade. The BLM was required to provide all records and respond to this FOIA request within 20 working days of receiving it. The BLM now has 30 days to file a response to Kleinert’s lawsuit.
“Rounding up wild horses from public lands for the sake of private ranchers who want to graze cattle and sheep is outrageous,” said Stephen Wells, executive director of the Animal Legal Defense Fund. “The Bureau of Land Management should be protecting wild horses, not virtually guaranteeing their slaughter or targeting filmmakers who expose what’s going on.”
Copies of the lawsuit are available upon request.

Speaking of withheld public records, where is the report identifying the necropsy results of the 80+ horses (and counting) that have died in the feedlot in Kansas in the past three months? It’s been over a month since their website reported any “news.” Will we have to file a FOIA to ever learn what happened and which horses have died? It must have been something very unusual to take so long to identify the causes of death – and odd when knowing they euthanized at least 15 right away since they knew they would not recover… from what?

This BLM report actually raises more questions than it answers. Do they consider old age in a horse to be a “condition that they can not recover from”? If that’s the case, there are probably several BLM employees who should be euthanized. I noticed in small print at the end of that BLM report where they claim to have made 47 billion dollars from the use of public lands last year. If so, why are they complaining that they don’t have enough money for the wild horse and burro program? Oh yeah, because it is going into their pockets. Think how much they could save (and add to their pockets) if they just left the wild horses and burros alone on the original herd management areas that were designated for them “primarily” by Congress in 1971. Of course, that might make it hard for them to justify their jobs.

BLM Proceeds with Checkerboard Wild Horse Removal
The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) Rock Springs Field Office will proceed with the removal of all wild horses from checkerboard lands within the Great Divide Basin, Adobe Town and Salt Wells Creek herd management areas (HMAs).
Preparations will commence on Sept. 12. Removal operations are anticipated to begin on Sept. 15. Public observation will depend on access, location, operational activity and weather. To be informed of these observation opportunities, please contact Shelley Gregory at 307-315-0612 or ssgregory@blm.gov to have your name added to the notification list.
This removal comes at the request of a private land owner and is authorized under Section 4 of the Wild Free Roaming Horse and Burro Act, which requires the removal of wild horses from private lands at the request of a landowner. This removal is also required under the provisions of the court-approved 2013 Consent Decree between the BLM and the Rock Springs Grazing Association, which provides a schedule for the removal of wild horses from checkerboard lands within the HMAs.
