NYT catches Dave Cattoor on Tape Conspiring to Hide Wild Horse Injuries/Deaths from Press and Public - The recent New York Times video report of the BLM?s destruction of the Wild Horse herd of Twin Peaks captures Helicopter Stampede contractor, David Cattoor, clearly stating how he and the BLM will shoot and hide the death of an injured horse so that ?we aren?t going to give them the shot that they want.?
BLM Speaks Out of Both Sides of Mouth on Issue of Press ?Access? at Controversial Wild Horse Stampedes - The long awaited New York Times article written and shot at the BLM?s destruction of the Twin Peaks Wild Horse herd hit the internet, yesterday. Although the story attempted to tell both sides it lingered far too long with the musings and philosophy of multi-millionaire helicopter owner, Dave Cattoor, BLM contractor hired to stampede the wild horses into traps for removal from their rightful homes. 
Reader Challenges BLM ?Staged? Rancher Engagement at Twin Peaks Wild Horse Stampede - It?s rare that I either have the time or the inclination to personally respond to individuals who take issue with what we publish and question the depth of our convictions. Most assaults come from phony email addresses and are only meant to damage or demean with four letter words used in rants; so it goes for the opposition. But today I received an email from a woman who claims to be the wife of one of the ?ranchers? who set upon the female observers, last week, at the Twin Peaks debacle. Being that I was there, listened, recorded, photographed and elected to disengage during the conversation I feel that it is necessary to respond to this individual, who will be known as ?Linda? during this conversation.
More Nevada Roundups Planned Despite Pleas from Congress - LAS VEGAS -- Government contractors have fired up their helicopters for yet another roundup of Nevada wild horses. The latest gather targets a remote area north of Ely, Nevada.
Four more roundup operations are on the schedule in our state this year. They will not only thin the herds, but wipe them out altogether.
The Perfect Time to End the Slaughter of American Horses - At the moment, the news is rife with stories about the level of equine neglect in the United States, with many of the articles blaming the ?unintended consequences? of closing the US horse slaughter plants and calling for them to be reopened. But in reality, we are coming up on a once in a lifetime opportunity to get rid of this abominable practice once and for all. To understand this apparent paradox, one needs to get past unsubstantiated myths to the real forces at play in the market.
BLM?s Own Numbers Indicate Wild Horses Will Be ?Zeroed Out? in 2011 - Several days ago we ran a "tongue-in-cheek" article about the poor math skills of a much recognized individual, Mr. BLiM. That piece was published in an effort to prime the public for the following information, facts and figures. We now have a real sense of urgency upon us as the BLM's recent release of thier 2011 Stampede schedule indicates their misguided plans to remove 11,000 wild horses from their rightful land...by their OWN numbers that is all that will be left in the wild after their assualt on the horses in 2010. There will be NO MORE wild horses, by their numbers, after 2011.
Evidence of Death Haunts BLM Wild Horse Concentration Camp - We wrote on Sunday regarding the impact that visiting a Bureau of Land Management (BLM) Wild Horse Concentration Camp can have upon one?s soul. The facility that we highlighted was Palomino Valley north of Sparks, NV where we were granted unfettered access and did not experience the feeling of being watched or guarded, unlike our experiences at the Litchfield facility outside of Susanville, NV?ground zero for the Twin Peaks Wild Horse extermination.
