  1. The Mustang roundups are more than just eliminating Mustangs. It is not just the BLM who have to be delt with. There are political and financial benefits to putting Mustangs in a ‘tourist’ environment, plus the fact that the Mustangs range will be exploited for resourses, like the multi-billion dollar natural gas Ruby Pipeline Project. All things considered, any assistance in stopping the roundups is appreciated.
