During this government #roundup on this habitat 11 wild horses, including four babies, died at the #trap, not even making it into the holding pens.
The next series of roundups start tomorrow. The #AmericanWildHorseCampaign (#AWHC) are working hard to stop these brutal helicopter operations from being used against wild herds.
The #Wildhorses and #Burros #roundups are happening because powerful #ranching private interest groups have #lobbied for roundup and removals in #Washington for decades.

[...] "Considered better for the environment and less emissions-intensive than most other forms of cattle production, silvopasture is seeing a resurgence around the world with major efforts to expand its usage in Canada, Brazil and the Mediterranean. And now, in part through Chedzoy’s work, in the US as well." | #environment #ClimateChange #sustainability #ranching

North American #bats at risk of severe population decline
By John Flesher, AP, Apr 17, 2023
"Among methods under development are vaccines, anti-fungal sprays and ultraviolet light treatments for hibernation spots.
"'We have a number of tools that are showing great promise,' Coleman [a wildlife biologist] said. 'There are very few precedents for managing a wildlife disease, particularly one so devastating and pervasive.'
"The report said the bats also are imperiled by #forest fragmentation — #logging and urban #sprawl in #Canada, #wildfire suppression in the U.S. and #livestock #ranching in #Mexico. Many bats live in older trees during summer.
"People sometimes disturb hibernating bats in winter by exploring caves and abandoned mines.
"#ClimateChange is expected to intensify the challenges, causing more extreme storms and temperature swings. The report said 82% of the continent’s species are at risk from global warming’s effects."

From the Heifer Ranch Center for Regenerative Agriculture:
“The results are promising. As the pastures and animals of Heifer Ranch have flourished, two native species — the Northern Bobwhite quail and beavers — have prospered alongside them. Below, learn more about Donna’s land management model and how the return of these two important creatures contributes to the healthy, vibrant ecosystem she stewards.”

Despite recent improvements, much of the Southern #GreatPlains remains in #drought. Some communities in #Oklahoma are calling for #water conservation, while #Texas ranchers continue to grapple with forage shortages.

After a lengthy stretch of #drought, improving conditions are welcome in #Oklahoma. Last year, the state’s #cattle herd fell by 11.5%, the biggest state-level drop in the US. Cattle numbers have continued to fall in 2023.
