Right, there's now a petition to the governing body of Queensland, Australia, against the aerial cull of brumbies. This is conducted by army snipers in helicopters.
Imagine the scene with a herd of wild horses ... Numbers need to be controlled, but is this the right way to do it, leaving horses dead and injured in the bush? Foals orphaned and starving? And this is a progressive country still in mourning for a lost conservationist ...
It surely cannot be justified, when the opportunity exists to extract family groups, gently work with the horses and rehome them.
Please sign and add your comments. And please do post this on other boards you visit. Thanks!
