Wild horses , burros
coming to N. Carolina
The cost of adopting a wild
horse or burro in the Carolinas has
been reduced to $125 for each
horse and $7S for each burro, the
U.S. Department of the Interior's
Bureau of Land Management
(BLM) has just announced.
Approximately 90 wild horses
from Oregon and 70 wild burros
from Arizona will be up for adop
tion at the Union County
Livestock showyards in Monroe,
North Carolina, December 6-9.
Persons who promise to give
good homes to the animals may
select as many as four.
The adoption fee in Monroe had
originally been set at $260 for each
horse and $135 for each burro, but
BLM officials have decided that
transportation expenses will no
longer be included in the adoption
fee.
According to BLM Eastern
States Director, G. Curtis Jones,
Jr., the cost of adopting a horse or
bWrStnfhe East was discouraging
many people from" -adopt in'g7 ? ?
Jones said this resulted in higher
taxpayer costs because large
numbers of captured animals had
to be fed in corrals for extended
periods of time. He added that the
substanially lowered adoption fees
should help alleviate the problem.
Wild horses and burros have
been, under Federal protection
since 1971, and more than 600 of
them have already been adopted by
Carolinians.
However, Jones explained that
wild horses and burro populations
grow so fast that thousands more
must be removed because of
limited food and water on their
western rangelands.
With care and patience, wild'
horses and burros have been tamed
and used for riding, farmwork,
showing and breeding. BLM re
quires that adopters have adequate
shelter and corral space with stur
dy fencing, and at least some ex
perience with horses and burros.
Applications and information
about the adoption in Monroe,
North Carolina, are available from
the Federal Information Center,
