If the ARAs get their way, the wolves and bears will be our replacements, not coexisters. The whole object is to have the wolves control the herds so we aren't needed as far as they are concerned.

The problem is that the groups that are stopping wise management have more money than most small countries.
I will agree with what has been said that most of these animals will never be saddle horses.The time and risk it would take to turn one out is not worth it.
My wife and I love to ride out west and have witnessed the damage caused by horses.I can see why the wildlife is hurting but short of an open season on horses I dont see this getting better.
Reagan said "government is not the answer,government is the problem".I think that sums it up pretty well.

Target archery is seeing how far away you can get and still hit the bull's eye. Bowhunting is seeing how close you can get and never miss your mark.

Vermonster:
I agree with the replacement of hunters with wolves being a motive.
I bet though; if we suggested taking horse killing wolves to the overpopulated horse areas; they would scream bloody murder ( no pun intended).
In fact suggesting that just might make them panic and do the right thing.

2traxx- I have shoed a lot of horses too (trained by Scott Simpson); my big toes have been smashed; my fingers too; and dont ya love it- when the blood appears? The horse owners always ask : "is the horse bleeding?"; and when you say "no- its me." they respond "Thank God!". [Big Grin]

Maybe if we could sic some photographers on the situation the sight of the starving horses would shake some people to reality??? [archer]
