The BLM is rounding up horses because they think the wild horses will not survive. They are treating these innocent horses like livestock. They are taking away most of the the wild horses, so much that the herds are not sustanable. Already there is a naturally wild horse breed near extinction. The BLM might cause this in Norht America (this is just my opinian). They aren’t listening to horse experts. If the wild horses could not survive, they would all be dead. Yet they are alive, and the BLM is rounding them up. I was in Washington D.C. the other day and spoke to the senator’s co-worker( I can’t remember what his job was), and he said that he would research it. I feel horrible for not doing anything about this before it began. Thank God Cloud and his herd are alive. The BLM is obviously not aware to how much the wild horses help our inviroment; their stampeding hooves help develop gullies, and their dropping make good soil. By taking away these horses, the BLM is, at the same time, preventing natural resources. I was watching something about this earlier, and in the description it said ‘everything that is against the law the BLM is planning to do to these horses.’ I can’t possibly see how the BLM thinks that they are helping these horses. These horses belong in the wild. I’m pretty sure that there are at least 60,000 horses that are demestocated. It outrages me that the BLM is adding to these numbers. And nobody really seems to mind this because nothing is being done about it. This too really upsets me. They should leave some horses to be wild and enjoy their lives while they can. Something HAS to be done about this. If things do not go well, I promise I’ll open a horse sanctuary in Cloud’s herd’s honor. I’m praying that they’ll be OK.
