THREE JOBS AVAILABLE FOR THE WILD HORSE BURRO PROGRAM! PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING LINK! THANK YOU!I wouldn't want to work for this gov. agency; but that is because I can not and have a definite problem with my temperment. However, these 3 jobs could change the way the horses are being treated, cared for and the operations of the Wild Horse and Burro program itself. If you are interested in any of these jobs, please do so - it could be the difference in extinction and survival for the American Wild Horse, indigenous to the Unites States of America. Please read and consider what is in this article. And, if interested, and you can the job that is really needed, be the ones to make the changes and differences that are needed. Thank you!

Here is the article in full:
The Bureau of Land Management is requesting public nominations to fill three positions on its national Wild Horse and Burro Advisory Board. Nominations are for a term of three years and are needed to represent the following categories of interest: wild horse and burro research, natural resource management, and public interest (with special knowledge of equine behavior). The Board advises the BLM, an agency of the Interior Department, and the U.S. Forest Service, an agency of the Agriculture Department, on the protection and management of wild free-roaming horses and burros on public lands administered by those agencies. The BLM announced its formal request for nominations in the Federal Register (https://www.federalregister.gov/articles/2013/07/02/2013-15873/notice-of-call-for-nominations-for-the-wild-horse-and-burro-advisory-board).
The nine members on the Advisory Board represent a balance of interests. Each member has knowledge or special expertise that qualifies him or her to provide advice in one of the following categories: wild horse and burro advocacy, wild horse and burro research, veterinary medicine, natural resources management, humane advocacy, wildlife management, livestock management, general public interest, and public interest (with special knowledge of equine behavior). Members must also have a demonstrated ability to analyze information, evaluate programs, identify problems, work collaboratively, and recommend corrective actions.
Any individual or organization may nominate one or more persons to serve on the Advisory Board; individuals may also nominate themselves. In accordance with Section 7 of the Wild Free-Roaming Horses and Burros Act, Federal and state government employees are not eligible to serve on the Board, whose members serve three-year terms, on a staggered-term basis, with one-third of the Board subject to appointment each year.
The Board meets at least two times a year and the BLM Director may call additional meetings when necessary. Members serve without salary, but are reimbursed for travel and per diem expenses according to government travel regulations.
The BLM is accepting nomination letters plus resumes that include the nominee’s first, middle, and last name, address, e-mail address, telephone number, profession, educational background, relevant biographical information, references, and endorsements; the nominee must also state the specific category of interest for which he or she is most qualified in regard to the three vacancies. Nominations must be postmarked by August 16, 2013, to be considered for appointment.
