Thanks to FARM Bill corruption, we have unscientifically traded a 55 million year native Mega Fuana specie for 93 million non-native and domesticated bovines inbred from one family for 10,000 years, by instead calling the horse domesticated and wiping out their natural predators as well.
Yellowstone National Park is the model we are going for with full trophic cascade and biodiversity.
Thanks to the “Factory” FARM BILL, currently at $86 billion/yr, we are mining what’s left of our aquifers to grow crops, of which 70% go to livestock feed, and then send them and alfalfa overseas. In the process we are destructively tilling these annual crops yearly, unsequestering carbon, sending top soil into the atmoshere and destroying these soils ability to sequester carbon.
Re-think the horse, it evolved here with these grasses, rethink the bi-partisan FARM BILL.
