Yeah whenever blm does a roundup they shuffle the animals off to privately run kill pens that warehouse them in substandard conditions and market them to horse girls on social media.
It’s illegal to kill horses for meat in America so you gotta put em on a train to Canada where they mostly become dogfood.
But Americans don’t want them to be killed directly and instead ship the carcasses, so they hold the horses so someone can “adopt” them.
I don’t know why I used quotes there, it’s animal adoption just like a dog or cat except for the wild differences.
While the animals are held in government subsidized private kill pens they are subject to conditions that pretty much every horse owner hates.
Of course the solution is much bigger roundups with direct kills but the horse people hate that idea.
They gotta cull these things. Horses breed like crazy, it would be easier if the US didn't treat them like wild pets and require the weird plausible deniability.
Almost nobody wants a wild horse, they're just gonna cull 99.9% anyway. And if you don't cull them they become diseased pests like deer.
The Orange Pedo is now killing horses.
What are the more humane ways to deal with these animals? They’re not native, they’ve been causing ecological problems, and they’ve been endangering other plants and animals.
Release wolves.
Directly shoot them from the heli and let the bodies return to nature. Minimizes the stress compared to day long transports in captivity.
Treat them like we treat we treat wild hogs. Wild horses are feral pets to the US, rather than pests.
