I've heard that some states are using birth control as a means of slowing down the wild population instead of outright killing like with the horses why not give X number of male horses a clip of the, you know and the same thing with female horses then re release like they do feral cats they fix them and release them.
Awesome show. As always, PBS putting knowledge out there for us all :))
Never stop learning!
excellent production, story telling and cinematography. Well done all the way around
I'm glad he said he had to dig deeper, because we have now recognized that horses were here, and not "ranging cattle", but in smaller numbers. The animals that prey on these kinds of animals have been hunted to extinction themselves and need to be included in the picture.
You're living my dream! Living vicariously through your farm and fishing adventures. My wife and I are even looking at buying land there in Washington state. Thanks for taking us along on your adventures!
Great episode. I truly enjoyed learning so much about invasive species.
I have more than 60 starlings in my yard right now! I do feed birds, most of which are still native to my northwest area, as well as a few exotic summer visitors, like the flame colored Western Tanager. The starlings arent always here, fortunately.
Background music is very loud. Can barely hear the voice.
31:09 well horses are quite "intelligent."
6:53 maybe instead of killing them something can be done quickly to their "reproductive system" to stop the "population" from growing.
Great show. Humans are definitely the most invasive.
My neighbor, who feeds birds, starlings, likes to tell me my cat is an invasive species.
Humans are definitely the most invasive (and destructive) species of all imo.
PBS is simply the best.
F*** it I'll eat some horses
Some anacondas some of those carps I'll eat them all sorry 🍽️
What?
Doesn't it seem kind of racist for you guys to call that black guy in your video thumbnail an "invasive species". What kind of far-left, white supremacists is PBS hiring nowadays!!! I can't believe my tax dollars are being put towards this disgusting hate speech.
ban gas stoves! 🤡
I thought that was a photo of Enrique Torro and I though yeah he’s an invasive species.
There are no invasive species in this world….nature moves with temperature…
