The government's over-management of wild animals is devolving into the disappearance of some of the world's most beautiful species. We mustSTOP,NOW! If we do not, another 30,000 will be destroyed, soon.Instead, we need to tell the Bureau of Land Management to parcel private property, only, or to close it's doors...because it has become a total nightmare through the years, all good intentions notwithstanding.According to the New England Journal of Medicine, no scientist has ever been able to mathematically prove (=) that animals are not as inherently intelligent and sentient as Homo sapiens. Moreover, consciousness, in and of itself, cannot technically (=) be inferior to itself [mind does not mathematically equal (=) brain, and brain does not equal (=) mind]. Therefore, who areweto consider ourselves a compassionate, intelligent society while being so careless and cruel with regard to the gift of our awesome wild horses and burros?

If we are genuinely concerned about the animals' inability to find sufficient food, we, as a nation, need to plant apple and pear trees...many, many apple and pear trees. Such a project ought to provide the Bureau of Land Management with plenty of opportunity to distribute their funds.Or is the real point that some wealthy rancher finds the wild horses and burros a hindrance to his profitability while leasing/using/managing Government lands, while the Management of some Chinese rendering plant(boiling puppy, kitten, and horse carcasses, et alii, for fertilizer and such)within America (such as that within politically-corrupt Vernon, California) is willing to pay for additional animal "fodder" for his client orders?We need to, each, take the time to watchallof the YouTube "animal abuse" videos (live, behind-the-scenes coverage). It will forever change your life...and possibly America...once you do.
Americans across the heart-land are disheartened and there is absolutely no excuse for any Government group/entity/official to euthanize or sell our precious wild animals. Rather, we need to plant apple trees throughout the National Parks. Business persons must only be permitted to purchase private lands. Having worked as a senior analyst within the oil industry, I KNOW that no wealthy businessman/entityneedsGovernment lands in order to make a profit, because of the proverbial Milk Shake Effect, whereby, one man's oil is usurped by means of his neighbor's slant. These businessmen are merely taking advantage of the "free ride" which Congress so graciously provides.The Congress and the officials and staff members within the Bureau of Land Management need to value LIFEabove the satisfaction of "fat cat" ranchers, et alii. Our wild horses are as important to the American legacy as apple pie, Johnny Apple Seed, and Benjamin Franklin. And their lineage is fine. Let them be. Yet, do not transport any to lands near Yellowstone, where hungry wolves dwell.
