The advocacy group does its own aerial survey of the Sundre zone's horse population. Glover, who has been a pilot for half a century, says the group counted 1,005 horses this year — just over the province's population threshold but significantly lower than the government's findings.

Last year, the provincial survey counted 855 horses in the Sundre zone.

Glover said that increase of more than 50 per cent is "physically and biologically impossible."

At the very least the government needs to look into why their numbers are inaccurate first
