Greetings Ecologers, With generous funding from the renewable resources extension act and the United States Forest Service, The University of California Cooperative Extension in Modoc County was able to hire two summer wild horse interns to learn about wild horses and see first-hand the controversy and ecological damage being done on western lands. One of the interns found out about the job on the ecolog listserve! If you are concerned about public lands and are interested in wildlife, I ask that you start reading about the detrimental effects that wild horses are having on our western public lands and start taking action. Our summer interns started a blog to tell about how complex the wild horse situation is and their experiences in Modoc County this summer.
