Western roundups provide horses, burros for adoption; By Clare O'Neill Carr Journal correspondent RHINEBECK A gray stallion, his four mares and a colt galloped toward a corral camouflaged with bundles of sage brush. Cowboys in chaps and jeans, wearing red bandannas and western hats, rode their horses nearby.

Beyond, the Idaho desert stretched toward a backdrop of blue mountains in a scene right out of the 19th century. Then right out of the 20th century a helicopter appeared above the small herd, driving them forward from a distance, tilting its blades at just tint right moment to cut off strays and guide them into the corral. The scene is a wild horse roundup by S. Bureau of Land Management in 1983 The herd represents just a few of 30,000 wild horses the government is removing from western rangelands and placing for adoption, Said Sharon Saare, spokeswoman for the Wild Horse and Burro Adoption program. Saare was at the Rhinebeck town hall last week with a slide presentation and information on how to adopt a wild horse or burro The program was sponsored by the Landsman Kill Trail Association.

Anyone 18 or older, who has adequate means and facilities for care and who has no criminal convictions for inhumane treatment, can adopt a wild horse for 1125 or a wild burro for 875 The BLM rounds up 4 000 to 5.000 wild horses each year and has placed over 40 000 animals since 1976. The helicopters are easier on the stock than "the lonely and hard, sweat and lather chases." said Saare. Easing the chase by backing away from the herd at intervals along the route to the corral, they allow the horses to slow their pace, preventing injury, she said. Rounding up the burros is partly done with helicopters, but completed with old fashioned driving and lassoing by cowboys on horseback. "BLM has preserved some of the very best of the Western tradition of handling stock," said Saare.

She said the program benefits both the pleasure horse industry in the east and the overcrowded rangelands of the west. Since being declared an endangered species in 1971, wild horses and burros have increased to about 70.000 head in 11 western states, crowding domestic cattle the wildlife that share the open range, said Saare Facing suits from cattle breeders and states overrun by wild horses. BLM launched a management con trol program, dreds of roundups a year and thousands of nationwide adoptions. Mixed breed horses gathered by BLM if they are gentled and trained by 5 years old make excellent saddle horses. High quality mares too old to break are excellent brood mares, Saare said.

The wild horses descended from escaped domestic animals, many of them let loose Vhen mechanization made the farm animal obsolete, said Saare They include thoroughbred, Arabian, Clydesdale and quarter horse mixes Young wild horses make excellent starter animals for AH and Umtcdv 20240 States Pony Club members who otherwise could not afford a registered, trained horse, she "The largest single source. or horses in this country Is the BJLM wild horse program she saidj. The small burros, many gathered from Death Valley, make excellent companions for horses, Saare said If adopted on their own. however, they should be adopted in pairs.
