If the outdoors is too wild for you, then move to NYC. Wild horses compete for food in the American Intermountain West … and yes the {BLofM} regularly rounds the surplus up and corrals them to keep them off the land … of course city-slickers have no concept of wildlife management and folks like yourself are fine with wild horses living their entire lives in a cramped pen … too many tofu-puking NPR-listening commie/hippy/liberal McGoverniks around to just even suggest offing them … and the Pens are protected from the Predators … haha, see what I did there? > [@August\_West](#): > > Get yourself a pet lion. Or dogs that aren’t such pussies … > [@Just\_Asking\_Questions](#): > > Humans are also a non-native species in NA. Are you advocating that they don’t deserve protection? … [snip] I like the way you think … I think we could become great friends … killing off all the damn humans would be the best thing in the world for the environment … spay and neuter, it’s the right thing to do … > [@Helena330](#): > > Then do what I said and chase them off with a bunch of noise.

Please, we’re using the politically correct word “nagging” now … (nag = female horse) … {BLofM} is happy to let you adopt a wild horse, they have plenty … there are some restrictions as to who is allowed to adopt … these aren’t jug-head Appaloosas rather they are wild animals and they require some extra care above and beyond regular domestic horses … it’s people like you who can make a positive change … ---

> [@TwoCarrotSnowman](#): > > And when you’ve done that, you can eat the horses. Quiet, you! Now, what the OP needs to do next is make daisy chains for all the ponies and run (in slow motion) with them, wearing long, flowing, white cotton clothes. ---
