These action items are considered closed, but reading this page will help keep you informed about what is and has happened on our public lands in regard to wild horses and burros.
August 25, 2024 Action Item for the Muddy Creek wild horses Send this copy of the article by Josslyn Wolf (see Download File aug_25_2024_muddy_creek_article.pdf) to your legislators with the a note that includes the following message: While this may be happening in the state of Utah, public lands and wild horses belong to all American taxpayers. The death of Muddy Creek wild horses due to lack of water on the range is the direct result of the Bureau of Land Management allowing grazing allotment holders to drain natural water sources in the area for livestock, and showcases the BLM's lack of management and compassion for wild horses and wildlife. I am sending you this today to ask for an immediate moratorium on all wild horse and burro roundups until Congress can investigate the Bureau of Land Management's lack of transparency, violations of the Comprehensive Animal Welfare Program (CAWP), wasteful spending of our taxpayer dollars on wild horse roundups, and massive mismanagement of the Wild Horse & Burro Program.
