On March 3, the Senate Energy and Natural Resources Committee will hold a hearing on the U.S. Department of Interior's budget request for Fiscal Year 2011. Included is an increase of $12 million for the controversial Bureau of Land Management Wild Horse and Burro program, and $42.5 million to purchase the first of several holding pastures in the Midwest or East to house wild horses taken from the West.

And please click here to submit comments on the Twin Peaks, California roundup. The BLM intends to capture 1,980 horses and burros in that Twin Peaks roundup.
