The Big Hunt Guys are joined by former Wild Horse and Burro BLM Branch Chief and Nevada Trappers Association's policy director to discuss the detrimental impacts of feral horses on the West
On this week's episode of the Big Hunt Guys, Jenny Lesieutre and Joel Blakeslee join Lorenzo, Brady, and Trail to discuss feral horses and their ecological toll on western landscapes. Jenny recently retired as the Wild Horse and Burro BLM Branch Chief in Reno, NV. Joel has a background in range management and has served as the policy director for the Nevada Trappers Association. The group discusses the history of the Wild Horse and Burro Act before digging into what the act actually mandates. They talk about horse and environmental activists and the lies and propaganda they promote to deter federal and state agencies from managing to proper objectives. The group also discusses population expansion and its detrimental impacts on the natural landscapes throughout the West. The group rounds out the discussion with a rallying cry for sportsmen and women to become a more active voice in demanding that the federal government manage feral horses as outlined by law.
