A reward of $7,000 is being offered for information leading to the resolution of a case involving the killing of a young horse. The Bureau of Land Management (BLM), which oversees around 245 million acres of public land primarily in 12 western states, including Alaska, has announced the reward. This is part of their mission to sustain the health, diversity, and productivity of America’s public lands for the enjoyment of current and future generations.

In addition to managing vast tracts of public land, the BLM also administers 700 million acres of sub-surface mineral estate across the nation. The reward is an effort to protect the wildlife that inhabit these lands and ensure their well-being. The killing of the young horse represents a violation of this mission, prompting the BLM to take action.
The full details of the case have not been disclosed, and it remains unclear who is responsible for the horse’s death. The BLM is hoping that the reward will encourage individuals with information to come forward and assist in resolving the case.
