Wild Mustangs of our West by Mustang Meg March 2020 

Thank you so much!

Yes! The one with the brown main with white highlights ❤️

Nice to be able to look out the window here and see those horses running

your photo is disturbing

@@Eva-cn2bu My little avatar photo? A historical photo of a Native American on horseback with a warbonnet and a gun is disturbing? Please tell me you're talking about something else...

@@MedicineWolf right. I think it’s super cool !!

@@Eva-cn2bu the only thing disturbing is your comment!

Hey there 1FM- Thank you and welcome! Yes, they are on government lands put in place for their management since the 1971 Wild Horses and Burros Act. And yes, it is illegal for anyone on those protected wild horse and burro lands to capture wild horses, outside of the BLM agency. Thanks for the question. For additional info- There are about 177 Herd Management Areas in our ten western states, and they are on BLM lands. It is their policy to remove horses on ranges considered in excess every 4-5 years, and offer up mustangs for adoption. Those not adopted, go to Longterm Holding facilities. Our Oregon BLM on this particular treasured herd- the South Steens of the SE corner of the state worked directly with us known as the Oregon Mustang Group (OMG) - and in 2016, 2017, 2018 Conducted 100-horse bait-trap gathers (utilizing their regular/natural waterholes, mineral areas, or areas where they baited it with hay. They removed 1-6 year olds which are easier to adopt out and returned the nucleus of the family bands. We in turn, helped advertise through various social media pages the SSteens horses available for adoption. I personally advocate for on the range population suppression techniques through contraception first. But for those which have been removed, we try and help them to be adopted. For those wanting to adopt, google 'adopt wild horses blm'.

@@MustangMeg ....wow..... great information and thank you for breaking it down for me....I have never been out west that far north..I've been to southern Cal and Vegas ( where we did see wild horses in Red Rock Cavern ? ) but never been up North where you are....looks beautiful out there. Hopefully I will get a chance to come to your neck of the woods some day and see these herds like you've shown in this video !!! Thumbs up and stay safe Meg...* I love your picture...your not only pretty BUT you are packin' a pistol !!! ;-) 1FM Lake George, NY

Here's something I wrote on the very subject :) facebook.com/photo/?fbid=10158795541403956&set=a.10158717834863956

Hi Jack. I have an album with a few of my write-ups, such as band sizes, satellite stallions, roles of mares & fillies, stallion cooperation, etc on my Mustang Meg page called Notes, Published. Here's a direct link: facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.10158717834863956&type=3

what for?

Nevada is a palomino stallion (aka Nevada band bc he's the band stallion) and his lead mare is Cheyenne from the Steens mountain region in SE Oregon. They've been together for over 10 years. I invite you to go to my facebook page Mustang Meg and do a search on Nevada and you'll see all kinds of content on him. Congrats. I also have a video of him here on my channel of him moving his band of mares and foals, called "Snaking".

Here is the youtube vid of Nevada moving his band ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-1LkO1GFL5Vg.html
