The issues facing our wild horses today are sadly numerous: from being rounded up by helicopters and separated from family band members forever, to living in long-term holding pens for the rest of their lives, being adopted through a faulty Bureau of Land Management program and dumped at auction pens after a year, to being bought by kill buyers and shipped to slaughter houses in Canada and Mexico. Our government and the Bureau of Land Management can do better than this, they can protect our wild horses better than this. It's up to us to remind them to do so before it's too late.

The only way to ultimately protect our wild horses (mustangs) and burros is if Congress requires the Bureau of Land Management to follow the existing law to protect wild horses & burros, enacts new legislation to further protect herd areas, and either replaces the Bureau of Land Management as the herd caretakers or requires the BLM to use funding for on-range management planning before roundups and PZP use. Contact your Representative (member of the House) and both Senators today. Be factual and use the messages below in your letter, email, fax, or phone call:

We can make a difference
but to do that we all need to unite and make our voices heard!
but to do that we all need to unite and make our voices heard!
Is there anything else I can do?
YES!! Please ask as many people as you can to join the Save Our Wild Horses Campaign! The more postcards, letters, emails, faxes and phone calls we can do will always help. We need to let our congressional members, the people who were voted in to office by us, know that the matter of our wild horses is extremely important to the majority of Americans. If we can get thousands of letters or postcards mailed in, then we will be taken more seriously. If we can get newspapers and news channels to write articles and air news segments, then more people will get involved and we can make real change! Find newspaper contacts here: https://jenniferrobin.gallery/news-media-contact/ Are you a teacher or do you know one? Get classrooms and students involved here! And please visit wildhorseeducation.org or publichorses.com to learn so much more valuable information regarding our wild horses & burros and public lands.
