You seem to believe that the trapping is a great way for people "to get some horses". For what? The vast majority of captured horses get a date with a captive bolt gun and if you believe otherwise you ARE a fool. So the end result is the same as a bullet. There is just way less stress on the animal that is shot in the field. If it makes you and the masses feel better that the horses are "rounded up" and killed out of sight then so be it. But don't pretend that trapping is the cleaner alternative. The capture permits lead to more suffering. But I guess if its done behind closed doors it is okay.
Different strokes for different folks. I've seen a lot of big game wounded and suffering. Running around missing a leg or what not. Suffering is different in everyone's eyes.
