Nope, there is no place for wildlife to safely exist anymore, nor can they survive without humans screwing up their habitats, behaviors, and even their genetics. Taking down barbed wire is great, but is it too little too late?

Look at the migration we are seeing of most wildlife species now due to climate change. Is that allowed to naturally happen for wild horses or burros, or even apex predators?

And if, by some chance, the outer boundaries of those maps are breached by a wild horse, the government scoops them up and throws them into pens. No free-roaming ever.

Wild horse advocates have been begging for this for decades. The irony is that the law to protect wild equines is called the Wild Free-Roaming Horses & Burros Act, yet they are never permitted to roam freely because of the livestock fences that crisscross the areas where they are allowed to exist.

FYI GonaCon birth control given to wild horses, elk, deer and other small mammals may be sterilizing your bald eagles who eat those animals. Make USDA and BLM stop using it until they do those studies! Our do you just want pictures of bald eagles to be the national bird?

And another politician is fighting for the Bison to be our national mammal. Wild horses were here before them, lets actually make federal agencies protect them instead of twisting the 1971 WHB Act into something unrecognizable ....oh wait, its for the cows, sorry I forgot.

What will this do to better protect the bird? You have federal land management & wildlife agencies who don't follow the laws and commit fraud in every decision made. We write, we file administrative appeals, we file lawsuits, and everyone just says well if the agencies say so, it must be true.

People are looking to move out of CA because PG &E passed the cost of wildfire they caused on to their customers. People cannot afford their electric bills. Not to mention homeowners insurance increased rated for fire!

She has been terrible for our public lands. There was zero protection for the ecosystems, none for wildlife. She never responded to any email. She allowed BLM to blatantly commit fraud and violate laws. She should not have your support. She even said she was from the wrong Pueblo tribe once.

Great now I need a button to react with an eye roll.

But wouldn't it be cool if true?!?! Lol. I can't read all the stuff you do, I just can't do it anymore. There are so many of them. It makes me wonder if they are all sane and I am the one who has completely lost it lol.

No pity here, they made choices.
