Maybe, maybe mid 70s when they threw on price controls, and every butcher and grocer had to invent a new name for his cuts to raise prices. Only time I saw an attempt to market buffalo in urban areas, it failed.

I agree this has nothing to do with Obama, but that was the headline.

girlangler, obviously I defer to you. I was thinking of some threads I posted some years ago about what I think was a ban of exports to France. My recolecction they were shipping live horses, and it was from BLM land. Couldn't sell them all.

I never thought about the problem beyond wild horses on federal land till this thread. Which has been enlightening, thanks to the horse fans.

Taking it a step further to my beloved canines (I even like the wild ones, though they have to be controlled) and the felines in my family I disparage (but like), I'm not sure there's any rational basis to ban their use as food, for humans or feed. It's a state or local issue, not federal.

I don’t know anything about those import bans, but doesn’t mean it didn’t happen. The antis have been trying for years to stop the consumption of horses.

They actually want to destroy ALL agriculture. There again, if they actually got what they wanted, it would be a disaster like this one issue became.
