Over 88,000 horses and burros roam wild and free across the American West. An animal rights group called The American Wild Horse Campaign is out to change that. Volunteers are injecting wild mares with contraceptives to help manage the horse population. This is an alternative to the BLM rounding the horses up and then paying people to adopt them. The roundup has had a checkered past. We get more information from Suzanne Roy, director of The American Wild Horse Campaign. (Originally aired January 19th, 2021)
