Hi I’m Sarah and I have a POA (pony of america) mixed with a welch. She is a mare around 12 years old and her name is Cookie. One of her favorite things to do is to go out and do a cross country course where I direct her but she still is free and her mind can think, and go everywhere all while still listening and doing what she is supposed to. Cookie is not a mustang. Her previous owner had to do a lot of training with her. She came and was overweight and wasn’t broken. Broke is a term for not-rideable yet, and that is when her old owner found her love for x-country so here are some of my opinions and facts about the world wide horse abuse helicopter chase unnecessary madness from our legislators.
So I believe that horses/mustangs which means a wild horse, are meant to be wild, not chased by helicopters into a pen to hopefully be bought into a nice home, but a lot don’t get that fortinet if they don’t get bought my and owner who will ride them eventually, they go to the kill pen to be turned into meat.
Let’s talk about foals/baby horses they could be running for miles, and hours on rock hard uneven ground when their hooves aren’t even developed. That is like you at the age of like 4 months running a marathon in the uneven desert running from a terrifying monster
The Bureau of Land Management is murdering young foals and older horses in its terrifying helicopter roundups in the West. Terror-stricken wild horses are “accidentally” chased into barbed wire fences and young foals are literally run to death. We must demand that our legislators put a stop to this! Our government is letting legislators get away with this, and it is not ok. Yeah I get it that you want your dog to eat but when it is time for the horse to go and run race tracks in heaven and jump the highest walls and eat so many apples fine, but when they are old and die of old age not as a foal when they are scared. Plus if you want your dog to eat a lot then wait till their old and it’s time to go.
I completely understand the fact that we are overpopulated with horses, but a much easier way is to naturally catch them and spay/ neuter them so they can’t reproduce and have more babies.
