In Article: re: Horse slaughter

I've hunted the valley many years knowing most of the ranchers and farmers in the area.  I would like to have the legs to walk it, and you should if you want.  Nobody will bother you if you are not hunting.  A nice place to walk is to battle hill.  It is just north a little of the white earth dam, you will see an old sheep ranch on the west side sitting below the hill.  At the top of the hill you can see the depression on the edge of the steep side where the calvary had to dig in.  It was the turtle tribe that was attacking them.  People have found rifles, pistols, bullets, arrowheads.  If you ever go, look for the rocks that look like turtles.  That is where the braves died.  


I have never asked permission to walk to battle hill and many still do I would expect.   A tourist attraction unmentioned by the state historical society.  North Dakota has many of these places but some are forgotten by them and they think the minute man missle sights will bring in more tourists.  I would like to see more tourist attractions in that area, including medicine hole north of killdeer.

In Article: re: Horse slaughter

I read the KX article on over 100,000 horses unwanted.  That would be including the wild horses that run free, and the ranchers horses. If you pay 75 bucks for a  horse and it eats 200 dollars worth of feed they are operating at a loss, horses killed go in a pit and the meat is never used because the USDA will not inspect the food for human consumption.   It all seems such a waste, and the picture of the sad horse is sad. 


They would like to open up a market for horse meat in other countrys where people will atleast eat the meat.  I ate horse once and is not that bad.   Here horses are consedered more of a friend or pet, and we dont eat pets. 


Anyway a horse that sad looking should be put down its suffering. 


I also agree to let the wild horses run free, I dont see where we dont have enough room for them, but other wild animals need to eat also in times of starvation and no food, its twice as sad to watch a horse starve which many do.  They do have roundups and offer horses at a cheap price but the buyers and people interested are to few to save them.


I plan on getting a couple horses ive got a couple hundred acres of pasture land I would like to see some cattle and horses on it again. My dream is to sell and have a cabin over looking the White Earth Valley its beatiful country where the valley divides into 2 .

I can think of a whole lot of really dumb things my friends and I did years ago in St. Paul (like walking across the Mississippi river on the railroad tressle near the Franklin Ave. bridge) between St. Paul and Minneapolis.  Young folks do dumb things.  I'm sure it was an accident; and a terrible one at that for the girls and their families.  Reply...


I remember at that age doing odd things late at night, so this doesn't surprise me. I can imagine how terrified they were when it first started to play out. The poor families..... Reply...


The stock dam was 12 feet deep. All three were still in the Jeep. They were supposedly out star gazing. Spotted by a truck driver at 2 am south of Killdeer. And what the hell were they doing driving on private property in the middle of the night? Drunk? High? Murdered? Suicide? Lots of different ideas. We will see. I feel sorry for the families. Parents are not supposed to bury their children. I just about lost my only son and I was a mess. Reply...


Marilyn,


Go to Google Maps, zoom in on the Dickinson-to-Killdeer area, and you will see a lot of those dams.


I can only pray for their families. 

Reply...


I would suppose dams are pretty deep 20- to 30 feet but not far across unless this was a natural stock pond.  It may depend on the run off and tits been a wet year,  but I dont see three girls drowning in a stock pond, I could see without proper dry equipment freezing to death is a possibility.  Lots of bad news out of that region of the state since spring so I wouldn't rule out murder.  It is to bad for this to happen they looked like nice girls but even in north dakota things can happen.  I think they died of hypothermia and loss of knowlege where they were with cel phones that were wet.

Thanks Jose'. The only ones I  had seen were man-made in flat pastures... actually you could walk out of them. I've never seen the ones you describe. Reply...


Marilyn,


Stock ponds vary in depth, especially if they include a dam.  If they somehow became flipped over, and couldn't open their windows, a depth of 10 feet (or less) could prove fatal.

Reply...


Our news said they pulled the jeep out of a stock pond. Just how deep ARE the stock ponds that THREE people would drowned? Reply...


The local offiliate other than KX said they had been found dead.  I havent heard stock pond or anything.  This was north of Killdeer I believe in the hills.  Anything is speculation as of right now. Reply...


It's on our news here in the Twin Cities as well. My instincts told me they were under water, but I was praying for something much different. This is so sad...... Reply...

I was hoping they just wanted to get away for a little bit. I had a lot of hope for these girls being found alive. All my sympathies to the families involved. Reply...


KX does not have the story on yet, but KMOT Minot did - I heard the same thing from relatives in Minot.  DAMN IT - I was so hoping for a different outcome.  Reply...
