Wild Horse and Burro Protection: Phasing Out Aircraft in Management
This act aims to gradually eliminate the use of helicopters and fixed-wing aircraft for rounding up wild horses and burros, making these operations more humane and cost-effective for taxpayers. It promotes alternative, safer population control methods, such as fertility control. Citizens will gain more transparency into these operations through mandatory camera recordings.
