B.L.M. need to extend the W.H.I.P. Program. Also I don't mind seeing wild horses.

millions of dollars are spent every year to kill predators on public lands—mountain lions, bobcats, coyotes, bears—if they threaten livestock. So horses have no natural enemies anymore plus these ranches grow bigger and get fenched off.
if you kill animals in nature you fuck nature up as nature can regulate itself as it did for millions of years.

We have an obligation to care for wildlife - stewardship of the land, so to speak. If caring for these horses means having to control/reduce their numbers then it must be done ethically and humanely.

Horse meat should be considered in our diets if it's perfectly fine to eat. I'd try it. I eat other animals I love

Yes there is, shoot them. That's what we used to do here until the government decided it was 'inhumane'. Porfessional shooters would shoot hundreds each day from a helicopter.

Dear Friends:

I'm a little prejudiced when it comes to horses. I have always loved them. I currently have about 68; 25-30 were rescued directly from slaughter. I got involved 8 years ago, when AWI first made me aware that American horses are being slaughtered and shipped overseas for human consumption. It's a shame horses - or any animal - be treated this way when horses are the foundation of America. Horses were a way to travel to get to where we are today, and it is our job to protect them.

The Bureau of Land Management (BLM), the agency in charge of protecting wild horses, has been rounding them up at an alarming rate, supposedly for their own good. Sadly, there are more wild horses in holding pens than in the wild. Something is wrong with that, so we must act now before the BLM has managed these magnificent animals into extinction.

Folks, please join my family and friends at the Animal Welfare Institute to see how you can help with this important American cause.

He also is selling a recording of the song "Wild Horses" sang by "Willie Nelson and Family" with procedes going to this cause.

FUCKING BULLSHIT! THIS COUNTRY WAS BUILT ON THE BACK OF HORSES IT BELONGS TO THEM AS MUCH AS US. KILL KILL KILL IS AMERICAS ANSWER FOR EVERYTHING. IF THIS IS THE CASE HOW ABOUT KILLING KILLERS, RAPIST, CHILD MOLESTERS, CROOKS, UNPRODUCTIVE PEOPLE, PEOPLE WHODDON'T RECYCLE, LETS JUST KILL EVERYONE WHO DOESN'T CONTRIBUTE SHIT TO THIS COUNTRY? THEN MAYBE WE CAN SHARE LAND WITH NATURES OTHER CREATIONS WHO HAVE EVERY RIGHT TO BE HERE. I'M PISSED AS FUCK OVER THIS ARTICLE.

you should def try it, not only is it fine to eat it tastes lovely and is very very healthy. same amount of protein as beef but with less fat/coelestoral. Try kenzie foods

I always use them for my 'exotic' meat. Have yet to pick up zebra or camel but I am having a BBQ this month so will get some in for that. I would avoid crocadile tail as its very bland

Dont worry, the ugly issue of survival of the fittest and Eugenics will come to a head again soon enough.

The only reason that sort of thing is taboo is because of Hitler.

It will take a serious disaster of global proportions to make us do it though, the weak, elderly and un-fit will be left to their own devices.
