We, the undersigned, request that the Bureau of Land Management adhere to the same rules as the general public in regards to the humane treatment of wild horses and burros. We find it unreasonable that the Secretary of the Interior, the BLM, or any person or organization, is found to be exempt from our collective responsibility as humans to treat animals humanely. We further find it unreasonable that the Secretaries of the Interior and Agriculture are permitted to define “humane” as it pertains to their own areas of command. We request that the Free-Roaming Horses and Burros Act of 1971 be restored to its original intent, that no person or organization would be permitted to capture wild horses and burros by means of motorized vehicles, or by polluting or closing off watering holes.
