Coloradans, have you ever run into a Wild Horse while hiking? An elk, a deer, an antelope or maybe, even a moose, yes but a Wild Horse, probably never. This article was written by a Cattle Industry proponent. You know, cattle... the ones who leave nasty,  smoldering, wet blobs of excretement everywhere you hike, that wallow in riparian areas across the West.  The privately-owned belching, thousand pound, money-on-the-hoof domestics which are owned by corporate conglomerate  "cowboys" like R.J. Simpson Inc. 
The very few (25-40k)  Wild Horses that have yet, eluded the helicopters of the soulless money-machine, compete for forage, which the Welfare-Ranchers pay $1.67 a month for a  cow/calf pair to devour. It's a Corporate-giveaway of our precious Public Lands.
Don't fall for it.
