Case 6.1 – Wild Horses Adm-624
Case 6.1 – Wild Horses
Grand Canyon University: ADM-624

In my opinion the Bureau of Land Management has had a great impact with all the services they have provided over the time. As the years have past it has become triple the coast to keep up with maintaining the care, services, shelter, and feeding of these horses. I understand the need and want to keep the horses population from dying out being instinct and letting them run freely in the wild as they are known to do. Not all animals should be restricted to where they can roam to just as humans. Also like the human race the more you roam and run wild the more it is going to cost you along with you reproducing. That is another mouth to take care of and provide for including yourself.
With the herd of horses double at the rate of every four years and more money going out to stay maintaining all the faculties in all 10 western states it is now time for some decision making steps. The BLM has different options that will help provide more funding and are required to obtain through the amended, “Wild Free-Roaming Horses and Burros Act”. Which still allows the horses to run freely and still producing to keep their race alive while maintaining good health. These different options rage from adoption, being sold with no limitations, and even put down in the most benevolent and cost efficient way.
BML knows their options but with most options comes concerns. These concerns are mainly of what the public congressional would have to say about the selling of the horses with no limits and the slaughtering of thousands of healthy horse. Regardless of what might be said about the BLM’s and their actions this is a requirement that they must meet and abide by. Due to the BLM’s not abiding by those requirements as left them in the state they are currently in with to many horse and not enough funding. There are also a few more options that are in the works and being looked at which is birth control for the horse to

    The problem with offering money is that some ranchers have accepted it, but used that money to pay hunters to kill as many wolves as possible (nytimes, 2011). Ranchers do not believe that it is necessary to keep wolf populations as high as they are (nytimes, 2011). The fourth article discussed how the court was going to uphold Congress’s act to remove the wolf from the endangered species list (latimes, 2012). The main viewpoints are the agencies that support Congress’s decision to take the wolf off the list versus the environmental groups (latimes, 2012). The environmental groups were arguing that the rider that Congress issued in 2011 was a violation of the separation of powers doctrine (latimes, 2012). However, it was revealed that the separation of powers doctrine was not violated and that states should still get the rights to determine wolf population numbers (latimes, 2012). In the fifth article, state governments versus environmental groups are the main viewpoints (nytimes, 2013). State governments believe that they are the most competent to make decisions about the future of wolves (nytimes, 2013). Reports indicate that wolf populations remain…

    Horse slaughter is a commonly unknown issue to the public but yet an important issue. One reason horse slaughter should be legalized is it would reduce equine neglect cases and thus reducing the need to rescues. People tend to breed two random horses together in hopes someone will buy that horse, but in reality people tend to buy more horse than they really need. This means the below average rider will buy the above average horse which leaves the below average horses unmarketable. From experience horses are expeive to keep, due this and the fact below average horses are difficult to sell, people tend to reduce care on these horses. This reduction in care increases the neglect cases along with the need for rescues. By legalizing horse slaughter in the United States horses bought at auctions would not endure hour long trips without food and water before being slaughtered. There is one major auction in…

    Factory Farm Environment

    It has become a multi-billion dollar industry with the intent to produce a large number of livestock in conditions that are intended to maximize production at minimal cost. Due to this high demand, the welfare of livestock is being ignored. The Animal Care and Protection Act refuses to protect livestock from harm and treats farmed animals as property rather than sentient beings. By introducing a new piece of legislation entitled the Livestock Welfare: Care and Protection Act, it will prioritize livestock welfare and address the urgent issues relating to the treatment of farmed animals. If the Queensland government acknowledges the suffering of livestock and takes action to minimise their distress, it will allow for farmed animals to live a much more peaceful life -- free from unnecessary pain – and provide justice to the millions of animals born into Queensland farms each year. Finally, by the government taking livestock welfare into consideration, it will create a far more civilised society which is based on strong ethics and a strong sense of…

    Much of the American public sees the situation differently. They say that horses are only animals and their needs are not as important as ours. The opposing side thinks that the horse’s lives are not important. They think that horses are meant to be slaughtered and fed to humans. To many people that live in Italy, France, Belgium and Japan, horse meat tastes like a delicacy (Horse 3). In their eyes, horses do not need peaceful deaths. To the opposing side, horses are wild animals who do…

    Robert Gonzales is only one of many people to commit animal cruelty. Kevin Brunson was also accused of harming an animal. He starved his dog, Rambo, until he weighed only fifty-one pounds. A normal dog his size would weigh around one hundred and twenty-five pounds. Rambo was seventy-four pounds underweight. A dog named, Lacey had scabbing around the eyes and other injuries from being abused. “Lashawn Whitehead of Greensboro, admitted to police that she beat her dog for fifteen minutes, then set it on fire. The dog ran away, and she was found. Her injuries were burned ears, a broken jaw, and teeth. She was adopted into a new loving family.” (Cawthon 2) All animals are affected when it comes to animal abuse. Horses have been reported to be starved and in very poor living conditions. Owners don’t clean stalls, feed the animals, or take care of the horses grooming needs. The horses become depressed to due to the lack of care they receive. Sixteen horses were found at Gina Rapuano’s Farm, Apache, Willy, and Destiny are merely three of the horses greatly in need of care. Apache was starved so much you could see his ribs; he was infested with worms, and needed hoof and dental care. Willy had trouble walking, and horrible eye infections. Destiny had such bad dental care that he could not eat properly, and was starving. “The horses eyes were dull; they were not alert. They tried to ignore their surroundings.” (Beach 2) All horses were taken to immediate care and are being nursed back to health. A tearful apology was given by Rapuano. The judge’s decision was that Rapuano didn’t purposefully harm the animal.…
