Pancake Complex: Where the Legal Battle Stands
>> https://wp.me/p1sfxY-LB6
The future of the Pancake Complex remains the subject of an active legal challenge. This expansive Nevada landscape is home to wild horses, and the decisions now being reviewed could shape what happens across the range in the months ahead.

The first case opened up long denied management planning not just at Pancake, but west wide.

We are now fighting for accountability toward transparency and real lasting protection for the herd and the land they call home.

Our latest update explains the current status of the case in plain language: what has happened so far, the issues being considered, and why this legal process matters for the horses and the public lands they call home.

More at the link at the top. The fight for these herds matters.

Hoofbeats felt in our chests—and carried in our soul.
For one unforgettable moment, he passed close enough that his hoofbeats felt like one with our heartbeat.

While working this month on lawsuits to protect wild horses in 15 Herd Management Areas, we found this video and were instantly taken back: dust rising in the air, the scent of sage and sun-warmed earth, the sharp sound of breath, the thunder of hooves, and the rush toward water.

A beautiful wild horse runs hard to avoid conflict, while we run toward it—to protect our herds and their wild homes across the West.

Wild horses and their homes on our public lands are under increasing threat from private interests and shrinking wild spaces. This threat is west wide, all of our herds, all of the time these days. But we will not give up.

These moments of wild belong to all of us—and they must remain for generations still to come.

Help promote and defend the promise. 55 years ago, the Wild Free-Roaming Horses and Burros Act was passed.
The main thrusts of the promise involved stopping abusive capture practices (mustanging), sending wild horses and burros to slaughter and setting aside land to support wild horses and burros as a principle use.

The Act stopped wild horses and burros from disappearing. However, each promise has been broken.

Right now, Wild Horse Education is working on lawsuits aimed at protecting 15 different herds in 4 different states... and we need to keep these lawsuits alive and file more.

All proceeds from the sale of these shirts will support our work.

Onward.

As summer roundup operations come to a close, the challenges facing America’s wild horses are far from over — the pressure is building. >> https://wp.me/p1sfxY-LA9

Between July 1 and September 28, nearly 7000 wild horses were captured. These removals are driven by private profit driven agreement to get to "low AML and keep populations low." AML is the number allowed on the range and it is not data or science-based, the numbers are agreement based. After summer roundups the entire state of Colorado has fewer than 600 wild horses.

As access to roundup observation, trap sites, and holding facilities continues to narrow, transparency narrows with it. This update examines the end of the summer roundup season, the acceleration ahead, and why public oversight matters at every stage—from the trap to transport to holding.

Please read and take action today.

Jackson Mountains (NV) Update: 469 of the 500 targeted have been captured. 7 have died onsite. > https://wp.me/p1sfxY-Lz9
Wild horses are being shipped the same day they are captured to an off-limits to the public facility in Winnemucca. The total number of deaths will be unknown until facility reports are obtained.
No observation of trap, holding, trailer loading or the facility has been provided.
Our team remains onsite.
Our legal challenge remains active.
The plan includes sterilizing 30% of the herd and applying numerous other "fertility control" measures after reaching a population total of 130 in the entire 283,000 acre area.
None of this will be done with any real data, science and not even enforceable welfare rules.

Public Lands Day, September 26th: Public lands are more than scenery. They carry history, culture, wildlife, and the enduring presence of wild horses and burros.

Their place on these landscapes is part of the larger question our country has faced for generations: who do our public lands serve, and what do we choose to preserve?

Today’s fight is, in many ways, a mirror of the past. The fight today at Stone Cabin has a direct connection to the very first battle during the first official roundup.
Let’s make sure the future leaves room for the wild.

240 of the 300 targeted at Sand Wash Basin (CO) have been captured. This mare was injured and appears to have lost an eye. We hope that she and her foal can be given an opportunity to go to sanctuary. >> https://wp.me/p1sfxY-Lvs
Trapping continues today.
Today is the last day of scheduled public observation.
There are only 60 left to reach the target for capture.
Capture portion of operation may end today.
Thank you PhotoAdvocacy for being onsite for us today.

Our inbox is exploding: Fertility control is not a one-size-fits-all solution. Meaningful progress requires careful evaluation of each method—and a program structure capable of supporting transparent, humane, accountable implementation.

Statement: Before new actions move forward, the foundation must be sound.
The foundation is rotten.
It is extremely disturbing that these meetings and decisions are taking place without transparency and true public and advocate participation. Manufactured consent is not consent.

There are also no guardrails for what has been set in motion.
The public needs to step up and fix problems being created by those that claim to focus on "solution."

New Roundup Schedule Is Out, Sort Of.

No numbers. No objective column. No release. No method.
Just where and when.

The 2027 fiscal year will begin with Sulphur in Utah and the Pryor Mountain Wild Horse Range in Montana on October 1.

Sand Wash (CO): Day 3, trap moved to the edge of the Herd Management Area where 82 wild horses were captured. https://wp.me/p1sfxY-Lvs
Faces familiar to the numerous photographers that visit the area were captured. Thank you to PhotoAdvocacy for being onsite for us today.
A total of 93 wild horses have been captured. The target number is 300. 245 will be permanently removed.
"Fertility control" will be applied to animals returned to make the "allowed" numbers on the range. It has not been confirmed if that will be PZP or GonaCon.

We will update our website frequently.

Important note: "Fertility control" is a vague and overly broad term. It includes everything from a dart gun to surgical sterilization. The sterilization plan at Jackson Mountains (NV) that includes ablation/gluing/burning oviducts is also fertility control.
