As I said in my comment – the fact that WE have to explain to this agency why motor vehicles & helicopters shouldn’t be used in roundups certainly is telling – they don’t understand nor do they want to. The only bottom line is expediency & profit!

Reserve Design should be employed not helicopter roundups that disrupts the mature social structures of the wild horses and burros. It is the latter that greatly help to stabilize herd sizes, aka population numbers. See my Reserve Design proposal
