Re: [RC] Wild Horses Letter in NY Times..on the mark - Kimberly M Price

Not much of a rebuttal seeing as you havn't stated facts, only your own
opinions.

I didn't post this to get into a debate about this author as I don't know
anything about her.  I did post it because I agree with this letter.

If it weren't for the cattle farmers trying to get more grazing, paid for
by our tax dollars, these horses wouldn't be in holding pens right now and
we would not be faced with this dilema.

Cattle belong either on private property or feed lots, not on our public
lands.  Horses, buffalo, elk, deer etc belong on our public lands, they
do not congregate in riparian habitat and they do not overgraze as they
move from area to area; horses alone average ten mile a day in search of
forage.

That is my opinion.  I'm not about to change anyone elses and frankly, I
don't care to.  Have a nice weekend.

Kimberly

Hope Ryden
New York, Nov. 25, 2004
The writer is the author of books about wild horses.

Little wonder.  Hope Ryden has been writing pure drivel about wild horses
(and a few other species) for years.  She is one of those folks who does
not want facts to interfere with her agenda.

When Heather Thomas wrote her very well researched book THE WILD HORSE
CONTROVERSY, Hope tried to sue her.  She couldn't get past Square One
doing so, however, since truth is the ultimate defense.  Ms. Thomas was
able to punch holes in a great deal of Ms. Ryden's nonsense with Ms.
Ryden's own inconsistencies and with well-documented information from
several sources.

But thanks for publishing her letter.  It's worth a rebuttal.
