You can see the secret documents to kill and dispose of America’s wild horses and burros reveal the Bureau of Land Management’s (BoLM) plan started in 2008. Is this how you want your tax dollars used?

“Jim says Burns takes them to a pit…” Read more here: http://protectmustangs.org/?p=9850.

Notice that Pesticide PZP, made from slaughterhouse pig ovaries, is part of their wipe out plan. It sterilizes after multiple use. Their goal is zero population increase which would ruin natural selection and make it impossible for the species to survive climate change.

Members of the public and some organizations have been fooled into supporting Pesticide PZP as the “lesser of two evils”. Follow the money if you want to understand who profits from forcibly drugging wild mares with Pesticide PZP for population control.

The Humane Society of the United States (HSUS) is the registrant of Pesticide PZP https://www3.epa.gov/pesticides/chem_search/reg_actions/pending/fs_PC-176603_01-Jan-12.pdf. HSUS called native wild horses and burros “PESTS” on the EPA Pesticide Application. Have they changed the legal definition of wild horses and burros with the EPA application that should be revoked?

Scott Beckstead, who was born and raised on a working cattle ranch and now works for HSUS, reported at the BoLM’s Spring 2016 Wild Horse and Burro Advisory Board meeting that HSUS is experimenting on a stronger form of Pesticide PZP. Does “stronger” mean their new form of Pesticide PZP will forcibly sterilize native wild horses and burros with one injection?

Wild horses and burros are underpopulated on public land which is overpopulated by beef cattle and sheep. Ranchers, BoLM and others try to scapegoat wild horses and burros for range damage when the truth is commercial livestock is destroying or already has destroyed the ecosystem.

Please share this petition with everyone you know! Email and snail mail the front page of this petition to your elected officials asking them to intervene to stop the killing, sterilization, PZP, roundups and sales to slaughter. We must stop the Bureau of Land Management’s documented plans to KILL America’s wild horses and burros. Knowledge is power.

Protect Mustangs, a 501c3 nonprofit organization, calls for protests against the Bureau of Land Management’s (BoLM) Wild Horse Advisory Board’s decision to euthanize all the wild horses in long-term holding. Under former Secretary Salazar, the BoLM has irresponsibly rounded up more wild horses than they could ever adopt out at once. The federal agency has been hoarding America’s wild horses in captivity at huge tax-payer expense without correcting the failed adoption program. Protect Mustangs is calling for the Bureau of Land Management to #PutThemBack on the 1971 herd areas in the West. More than one-third of the herd areas have been zeroed out.

“We will fight this outrageous plan to kill and sterilize America’s icons of freedom and we will win,” states Anne Novak, executive director of Protect Mustangs. “The public is not going to tolerate this. The Bureau of Land Management is a rogue agency who still wants to sterilize wild horses and burros with injections. Their advisory board is made up of people favoring the livestock industry except for one person. The bogus board of mustang haters needs to be dismantled and recreated with wild horse and burro experts – not cattlemen with a huge conflict of interest. It’s time to put America’s wild horses and burros back on public land where they belong.”

Pushing for slow sterilization with Pesticide PZP has only made matters worse by labeling wild horses and burros “PESTS” with the EPA and devaluing them further.

Read more here http://protectmustangs.org/?p=9733 and help us fight this in court and through nationwide protests. We have won important legal action stopping roundups and saving many lives. Now it’s time to save the lives of all the wild horses in holding! Go to www.ProtectMustangs.org, because you can help!

Protect Mustangs will not back down and will NEVER compromise for the “lesser of 2 evils”. It’s time to fight the Bureau of Land Management’s heinous final solution for America’s icons of freedom.

Keep sharing this petition. Now you know why they don’t care about the welfare of wild horses and burros in holding. They want to kill them after they rush them through adoptions to give them 3 Strikes and call them “unadoptable”.

Together we can turn this around!

Aug 18, 2016 — 3-Strike Friends SUZIE KING (#2473) and SNOWBUNNIE (#2256) are at-risk and need a forever home together. Please help them!

We met them both at Palomino Valley last Friday. They were super nice and friendly. The two friends have spent all of their lives in the captive pens since they were rounded up as tiny foals. Now they are 6 years old and about 14h. Please help SUZIE KING and SNOWBUNNIE stay together in a safe place away from horse-traders, kill-buyers and slaughter!

You can do a walk up purchase at the BLM facility until August 22nd and save both wild mares with $50 for the pair. You can also set this up from a distance and arrange for someone to haul them to you. Read more here: http://protectmustangs.org/?p=9501.

Thank you and Bless you!

Aug 11, 2016 — Protect the wild horses in Modoc National Forest from brutal helicopter roundups!

It is good to know that the US Forest Service is promoting adoptions of wild horses. However, no roundup should occur.

Inadequate Population of Wild Horses in Devil’s Garden

The International Union for the Conservation of Nature recommends a minimum-viable population (MVP) of at least 2,500 for a wild-horse herd. The arbitrary management level (AML) for the wild horses of The Garden — 206 to 402 — is way below MVP. The AML implies that each wild horse needs 578 to 1,129 acres. But how many acres does BLM estimate each cow or calf needs? Answer: 38 acres. So, absolutely, The Garden’s 232,500 acres could support 2,500 horses at 93 acres per horse. I further note that it was USFS who split the horses’ habitat into 2 sections and, in so doing, took away 25,500 acres, which were then given over to commercial livestock, which already had many more grazing slots than the horses. Indeed, USFS allows nearly 4,000 cattle to graze in The Garden, where the horses are supposed to, by law, have principal use. Read more here: http://protectmustangs.org/?p=9434.

Then contact your elected officials and tell them to fix the situation with a fence — not a cruel roundup costing about $600,000.

Keep sharing this petition out to double the numbers ASAP. In face of the current mustang-hating climate, America’s wild horses need more signatures to let politicians know you are serious and you want them protected, not slaughtered.

Thank you for helping America’s wild horses!

Jul 25, 2016 — The clock is ticking. Oregon State University isn’t stopping. They are going ahead with their Nazi-like population control experiments on wild mares and a lot of them are pregnant! The experiments were encouraged by a bunch of sick pro-slaughter, pro-cattle activists that work in darkness to bring the “final solutions” to America’s underpopulated wild horses and burros. These people have no soul. They have no empathy for the suffering these horrible experiments will inflict on WILD horses… wild animals… wildlife… that the law was supposed to protect.
