Dart Guns Offer a Groundbreaking Way to Manage Colorado’s Wild Horses Problem

Wild horses are a breathtaking symbol of the American West, but overpopulation has put them at odds with the ecosystems they inhabit. In Colorado, a group of volunteers and the Colorado Department of Agriculture, has taken a creative approach to this challenge by using dart guns to deliver fertility control vaccines. This method not only avoids controversial roundups but also represents a promising step toward balancing the needs of these iconic animals with the land they roam.
