Subject: Battle Mountain District Resource Management Plan Revision
Dear Sir;
When conducting your drafting the Resource Management Plan (RMP) for the Battle Mountain district, I urge you to consider wild horses and burros and their future on the range. The new RMP needs to support the wild horse and burro population as a symbol of the American West and an admired icon by the American public. I urge that you take the following into consideration:
When you write your own letter, be sure to include the some/all following points:
- - Raising the Appropriate Management Levels (AMLs) for wild horses and burros
- - Allocating the majority of forage in the area for wild horses and burros
- - Improving existing water sources
- - Removing fencing to allow for free roaming wild horses and burros
- - Allow for a genetically viable population on each area of the range
- - Consider predation as a way for natural population management
Sincerely,
