Jack,
Over 7,500 wild horses from Nevada’s Antelope and Triple B Complexes need your help! Right now, the Bureau of Land Management is accepting public comments on a Herd Management Area Plan (HMAP) for these two complexes and the wild horses who call this area home.
As part of this, the BLM wants to reduce the number of horses to the unscientific Appropriate Management Level (AML) of 899-1,678 animals across the complexes. But at the same time, the BLM allows significant livestock grazing year-round on the public lands in these complexes.

These horses are an important part of Nevada’s desert landscape, especially the Antelope wild horses who possess unique genetic traits. It’s essential to conserve these iconic animals on our public lands. Speak up now for Nevada’s wild horses! [[link removed]]
When evaluating this HMAP the BLM Must:
*
Reevaluate
the
land
conditions,
including
the
impact
of
livestock
on
the
range,
before
any
removal
decision
is
made.
*
Include
new
conservation
methods
that
transparently
address
primary
degradation
factors,
and
promote
balanced
ecosystems
and
sustainable
land
use
across
public
rangelands.
*
Prioritize
fertility
control
over
roundups,
aligning
with
legal
directives,
science-based
strategies,
and
fiscal
responsibility
for
effective
wild
horse
management.
*
Abandon
the
use
of
gelding
as
a
population
management
strategy.
*
Prioritize
bait
trap
removals
over
cruel,
costly
helicopter
roundups
if
roundups
are
necessary.
*
Undergo
updated
genetic
testing
to
ensure
genetic
viability
for
all
herds
who
call
these
complexes
home.
