The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) manages wild burro herds at disastrously low numbers throughout the West. One of the few viable burro herds lives in the immense Cibola-Trigo Herd Management Area (HMA) in southwestern Arizona along the Colorado River-a 600,000 acre area.
As the Bureau of Land Management's tentative schedule for the rest of 2011 and 2012 indicates, the agency continues its aggressive roundups and removals of America's wild horses and burros from the range.
