Protection, Management, and Control of Wild Free-Roaming Horses and Burros

Samenvatting

This final rule amends the regulations pertaining to the protection, management, and control of wild free-roaming horses and burros by revising the definition of wild horses and burros to exclude foals born to wild horses and burros after approval of a Private Maintenance and Care Agreement. This clarification is necessary to avoid the extreme administrative difficulties that would be associated with locating, identifying, and caring for widely dispersed animals in the possession of private individuals.
