Update: Wild horses shot to death in Nev.

RENO, Nev. (AP) - Thirty-one wild horses were shot to death at close range
with a rifle in the worst slaughter of free-roaming horses in Nevada in a
decade, investigators said Tuesday. "This kind of stuff is just sick and
absolutely senseless," said Paul Iverson, administrator of the Nevada
Division of Agriculture. "Some of them were shot and left to suffer for a
long period of time." Twenty-five of the horses were found in and around a
valley known as Devil's Flat Sunday and Monday. Six additional bodies were
discovered during a helicopter search Tuesday. The horses included several
young colts and pregnant mares. See full story
