The proposal also endorses dangerous sterilization techniques on wild mares and skewing sex ratios of herds which will destroy the genetic viability of any wild horses and burros that remain free.

These animals are National Treasures. They should be treated as such. Stop the killing and sterilizations. It’s so wrong.

These horses are American icons that have survived centuries on the plains! Keep American hoses on the Land of the Free!! They are protected living on protected land yet the BLM has decided to remove and destroy them! It is WRONG on so many levels! STOP roundups. SAVE THE AMERICAN WILD HORSES AND BURROS!!
