Outstanding Wild Horse Coverage

If you'd like to see a concise and balanced news report on BLM's mishandling of wild horse deaths and adoptions, check this out: http://www.klas-tv.com/Global/story.asp?S=7350916

The current director is no Brynna Forster. Take a good look at the budget table shown in the story. Almost all of her money is going to helicopter round-ups and keeping the horses in pens, instead of trying to find homes for the horses she brings in. And, despite the deaths of hundreds of horses during the time of this interview, she was giddy about the job she's doing.

According to government statistics, it's true that there are more mustangs in government pens than on the open range. Rangelands declared over-grazed by horses are still covered with cattle and sheep.
This news series is excellent.

Best,
Terri
