prior to this Big Bullshit Bill coming out. So they knew ahead of time what was coming and added the killing of federally protected wild horses from the Carter Reservoir, Buckhorn, and Coppersmith herds. They are planning on beginning rounding them up this summer. The Record Of Decision (ROD) for these three herds states:

(c) Remaining excess animals for which no adoption demand by qualified individuals exists shall
be destroyed in accordance with subpart 4730 of this part.

This is the first time we have seen that direct language in an ROD.
