Excerpt
"The horse is an iconic image of North America, the origin of Equus. There was a protection act created in the 1970s to preserve this creature that has helped humans for thousands of years. Over the years people in government positions have ignored this protection order and has been brutally rounding up horses and killing them. There is less than 100,000 wild equines roaming the western landscape. There is over 6 million cows consuming over 80% of wild vegetation and eroding the landscape. Ranchers and hunters are the reason why the government spends over 60 million dollars a year slaughtering wild equines and inserting birth control into mares."
