Subject: A battered beat up ford drives in, hauling a trailor. A few other trailors follow.

It parks the trailor on the entrance to a small round pen. From inside frightened and angry bugles sound.

A man in his late 40's jumps out of the cab, a collie dog at his heels. He hurridly brings down the trailor ramp, then runs out of the pasture. A pinto stallion and a mare gallope out. They are skin and bones, with rope burns around their necks and infected cuts all over their bodies. The rest of the men repeat the same thing. The men and their dogs watch as the stallion herds his mares to a corner. One man tapes up a few huge sighns that read:

Mustangs for cheep sale. Wild. If nobody claims each animal Then they go to the hungry nations world wide. Stallions a devil, killed a man and his dog with a single blow. Mares aren't much better. You name.
