HORSE WARS

RED ALERT!!!

 

HORSE WARS STARTED BY STATE OF NEVADA!

 

INTERIM DIRECTOR OF THE NEVADA DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE TONY LESPERANCE  STATED ON APRIL 11 THAT THE VIRGINIA RANGE HORSES ARE ‘"STARVING TO DEATH" AND THE VIRGINIA RANGE HAS ‘NO VEGETATION’.

 

Lesperance told the Legislature’s Interim Finance Committee that he will come up with a plan to remove many of the horses. “I am far more concerned about the decline of the Virginia Range as an environmentalist than I am concerned about those horses,” he said Wednesday.

 

 STATE ASSEMBLYMAN TOM GRADY AGREES WITH THE DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE.

 

THE VRWPA AS WELL AS OTHER WILD HORSE ADVOCATE GROUPS HAVE BEEN MEETING AND PLANNING. PLEASE GO HERE TO READ WHAT HAS BEEN GOING ON SO FAR. I WILL UPDATE THE WEB SITE AS NEW THINGS HAPPEN.
