Ive heard that older horses are not removed from the HMAs – true?
*From the BLM Website:* We have a policy in effect that in essence says that only horses younger than 10 may be removed and placed into the adoption program. This means that we gather many horses, remove only those adoptable horses under 10, and then turn the older and unadoptable horses back on the range. The current policy of turning aged horses back out into the HMA is unacceptable in that it will eventually overload the HMA with aged horses and interfere with the social and physical dynamics of the HMA.
