カイマナワの野生馬:群れを増やして帰郷する馬の群れを増やしたい

Share:

環境保護局は来月、カイマナワの野生馬の調査を開始する予定です。しかし、生活費の上昇が理由で、今年は馬の養子縁組を申請する人が少なくなった。過去数年間、同省は300頭の馬の群れを維持してきましたが、人口過多や食糧資源への負担を防ぐため、余った馬は養子縁組の対象となります。

これらの馬のリホーミングには費用がかかる可能性があり、最近の経済的課題により、今年はさらに困難になる可能性があります。カイマナワ・ヘリテージ・ホースズのマリリン・ジェンクスによると、これまで最大200頭の馬がリホームされたのに対し、約80人が馬の養子縁組を申請したという。

養子縁組者は辛抱強く、牛舎や馬の伴侶など、馬に適した施設を用意する必要があります。馬は家族と離れ離れになっているため、慣れるのに時間がかかることがよくあります。

現在の申請数は、その地域から退去させなければならない馬の数よりも少ないです。前回の集計では530頭の馬が確認されました。つまり、持続可能な群れレベルを維持するためには230頭の馬を駆除する必要があるということです。カイマナワ野生馬諮問グループは、残った馬をどうするかについて議論する予定です。

ジェンクスは、生息地域が広いことを考えると、許可される群れのサイズを450頭まで増やすことができると提案している。個体数を抑える方法として、2022年以降、3~4年間は子馬を産めない避妊薬の注射を受けている雌馬もいます。ただし、群れの規模が大幅に減少するまでには数年かかると思われます。次回のまとめでは、さらに50頭の雌馬に避妊薬を投与したいと考えています。
