Activists say the U.S. Bureau of Land Management’s plans in the Calico Mountains Complex run contrary to the agency’s pledge to make such gathers transparent and to allow advocates to monitor them.
BLM spokeswoman Heather Emmons says the two-month roundup of about 2,500 mustangs will begin Monday on private land because it offers the best access to the animals.
She says it’ll be conducted on private land for the first week or two before moving to public land where activists will be allowed to monitor the activity.
