The Bureau of Land Management spent more than $450 million dollars in the last 5 years on its wild horse and burro program.
Of that total, $25 million went to gathering animals, but most of the money goes to caring for horses in long-term captivity.
"Unadopted animals are cared for long-term in off-range pastures big open grasslands for these animals to roam for the rest of their lives and yes it does cost around 60% of our budget to care for the unadopted and unsold animals," said Fontana. Fontana said that horses have been adopted in the past and put up for slaughter although they try to monitor the best they can.
A handful of the collected horses will receive birth control and be released. The rest will live a domestic life off the range and away from the land that once made them wild and free.
