Danger is growing on Capitol Hill for America’s wild horses and burros. Public lands ranchers and their Congressional allies are pressing for the mass slaughter of 44,000 wild horses in holding and 40,000 considered to be “excess” on the range. The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) is pushing budget language to strip wild horses of their federal protection and deliver them into the hands of local and state governments in what could provide a back door route to slaughter for thousands.
And, as if that wasn’t enough, the BLM is pressing forward with gruesome sterilization experiments on wild mares.
Slaughter and sterilization, that’s what our government has in store for our majestic wild horses and burros. But not if we can help it.
We’re pulling out all the stops on the legislative, legal and grassroots fronts to block this biggest threat to America’s wild horses and burros in more than a decade.
We need your support for this critically important work.
