What Happens At The BLM Roundups?

This mare suffered a broken leg in the round-up process For the most part, Bureau of Land Management officials prevent the media and wild horse advocates from having real access to these roundups, even closing off the air space during these “events”. If the roundups are humane, as the BLM and many anti-wild-horse groups claim, then why do they prevent the public from more closely witnessing and recording them? The answer is obvious—because the actual roundups are horrific for the horses and burros. People in the horse community who have attended such roundups can attest to their cruelty and severity. And they also attest to the grossly unfair numbers that both BLM and USFS are setting as so-called Appropriate Management Levels (AMLs) as the population levels that are allowed within the wild horses/burros legal Herd Areas (BLM) or Territories (USFS).
