- Listen blackyowe If you think that horses have "damaged the enviroment" take a look around, how many fields does the AVERAGE american drive by on their commute to work. if anything, we should start euthanizing the stupid people like you who don't think that their houses or appartment buildings don't emmit and toxins when you flush your toilette or throw out your garbage. or how about those people who own horses and ***** about the price of gas when your suv gets an amazing 8 mpg. I proudly own 8 horses and one pony, of which 3 are rescues. And I think that the blm should back off and start managing some of the land that we drive on, put our tax money to good ues and fix these raods that are eating our cars whole.

- There are more horses in this country that no one wants than ever before. If you all care so much about these wild ones adopt 10. I rescue donkeys and horses and have given my life to keeping animals from being killed but the fact is the people that cry the most often don''t put their money where their mouth is. How many posters on here have saved a horse from slaughter raise your hand please?

- Our Goverment is Messed up. The BLM has missed used there funds and never had it right. The Cattle Association needs to get off this land its not theres its the American People. They only pay $1.00 an Acre to use it. The Cattle Association were also getting $3.00 per horse slaughtered at the Texas plants when they were opened. No Horse Slaughter has not ended horses are going to mexico and Canada as they always have its just been a big secret until undercover exposure came out. The AVMA,AAEP,USDA,Beef,Pork,Poultry Industries knew this. They didnt want the public to know. Its time to expose all sellouts and criminals that ignore laws and ignore the will of the American People. for more info visit www.Sharkonline.com

- Why do humans always think that when there are too many of something the answer is to just kill the excess? The whole planet is overpopulated with people... people who do a lot more damage to the planet than horses, cats, dogs, birds, or any other animal ever will. Leave the horses and all the animals alone. After all, they were here first!

- These animals damage the environment. It''s a real shame but they have to be culled. I own horses and with feed prices sky high people are turning horses loose in National Parks all over the country. They ended horse slaughter and the value of a horse dropped considerabley then the cost of feed hit the roof.

Man "always" has to interfere with nature. If there are too many horses to survive there...nature will take care of it and the strongest ones will survive and the weak ones will die. Mother nature knows what she is doing....man just meddles and makes things worse. - Reply to this comment
- Also might help if the BLM didn''t make it so hard to adopt the animals.

- The cattle ranchers and Sheep herders have their own land. Leave the open ranges alone, would be a good option. See the price of beef lately?

- The price of beef would skyrocket if you took cattle from public land. Also, ranchers pay to have there animals there. The government is already a little short on money, so that would be one less way for them to bring in an income. Equalling higher taxes for everyone as well as higher meat prices. And the mustangs would still overpopulate, it would just put the inevitable off for a few more years.
- Leave the animals alone, or feed em to the polar Bears,hear they are starving ?
