Kindra’s dissertation explores the underlying decision-making factors that guide the Bureau of Land Management’s Wild Horse and Burro Program. This project utilizes an institutional ethnographic methodological approach to understand the ruling relations that guide U.S. federal decision-making about how to best manage roaming horse and burro (donkey) populations and the rangelands they inhabit.
