such as darting female horses with birth control medication, instead.
Currently, the #BureauOfLandManagement uses low-flying helicopters to drive herds of #WildHorses to exhaustion, chasing them mercilessly until they can be rounded up and removed from their homes and families. Swirling panic and unforgiving terrain frequently combine to cause excruciating body and face lacerations from barbed wire fencing, snapped necks, and isolated, lonely deaths.
Wifey got this great shot on the drive home. They don't call it wild horse country for nuthin out here

The #House has passed the #Trump #budget blueprint 217 to 215.
1 Republican voted no Rep Thomas Massie of KY.
That said, this will not pass a vote in the #Senate, so it’s really just a waste of time by your State’s #taxpayer paid #Republican Representatives.
Included in this are cuts to #Medicaid & the earlier mentioned #slaughter of #WildHorses, among many other equally distasteful items.

PBS News · Wild horses could be sold for slaughter in Trump budget planPresident Donald Trump's budget proposal calls for saving $10 million next year by selling wild horses captured throughout the U.S. West without the requirement that buyers guarantee the animals won't be resold for slaughter.

This could have devastating consequences — not just for the few vanishing mustangs still roaming free, but for the thousands #incarcerated in govt holding facilities.
…When we talk about BLM’s “wild horse programs,” we are talking about >60k #WildHorses & burros trapped in claustrophobic, sometimes dangerously #overcrowded govt pens, where #animals have no room to gallop, family bonds are shattered, & some #horses mysteriously disappear into the #slaughter pipeline despite federal protections.
In the chaos, amid the firings & funding freezes, the #WildHorses of the American West once again find themselves in peril — not by accident, but by design.
#Republican NV Congressman Mark Amodei confirmed: The Bureau of Land Mgmt’s #wild #horse programs may be on the chopping block as part of #Trump’s sweeping federal cuts.
