Nothing more deplorable than a man sneaking such a low, putrid Amendment into a pile of military spending than a government that allows and pushes through an Amendment that the American people did not agree upon. These horses and the lands they reside upon belong to the people, not ranchers, not oil companies and are not the private property of any government. It is time to see we need our public lands, its wild horses, burros and other wildlife left untouched. No oil, polluted water, plethora of cattle (which are shipped, not utilized here), no fracking, no sheep....no human interference!! Put the Burns Amendment out of its misery and ours. -

This is a Despicable way to treat animals that helped us conquern this continent and bring supplies and people to New Frontiers just because of greed. More grazing land for cattle so ranchers can make more money. Shame on humans for allowing the roundups to continue and bringing these beautiful gorgeous majestic creatures to near-extinction all for money. There are Humane ways to control herd populations without damaging mares or stallions or gathering them up to be held in large holding pens or sold to kill buyers for slaughter...including babies!!! let's do what's right instead of what makes some richer.REPORT COMMENTS

PLEASE PLEASE just STOP harming them. They are families, and better at it than we humans. When the round ups happen the families are destroyed. The slaughter industry is NOT one that needs assistance, it needs to end. Cruelty upon cruelty to an animal that DOES NOT NEED US, except to protect it's space. no more welfare ranching, period!!! The cows eat all summer and leave nothing for winter!!REPORT COMMENTS

These horses and burros ate being rounded up for one reason greed. The cattle growers , energy , and mining corporations have taken over our public lands and we as the citizens of the United States have had enough. The Academy of Science has done the research and there is no proof that our Wild Horses and Burros are over populated anywhere that they roam .REPORT COMMENTS

Please repeal the Burns Amendment, Restore The Wild Free-Roaming Horses & Burros Act. Horse and burro slaughter is extremely inhumane. It is time to protect America's free roaming wild horses and burros the way the "Wild Free-Roaming Horses and Burros Act" in 1971 called for.REPORT COMMENTS
