2024/09/16

The BLM's controversial new plan, “The Path Forward”, is a fast track to extinction for our beloved wild horses, and we need to talk about. Joining me for this important conversation is Debbie Coffey, writer, speaker, and long-time advocate known for her extensive work with many organizations to help the wild horses and burros. Debbie helps me break down the deceptive language and faulty premises behind this plan, which aims to round up a staggering 130,000 horses over the next decade. Plus, we

2024/09/02

The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) recently reused an outdated assessment and failed to conduct a new count despite severe winter conditions that reduced horse numbers. The roundup of the White Mountain Herd, which involved the use of helicopters, resulted in significant stress for the horses. In this episode, I explain why I call the BLM's White Mountain wild horse roundup “a pre-zero roundup,” and how The Rock Springs Grazing Association’s influence in limiting wild horse populations, and the

This week, I delve into the lives of two remarkable stallions from these herds, Shaman and Tecumseh, drawing on firsthand experiences and observations. As you'll hear, preserving wild horses is not merely an act of conservation but a commitment to safeguarding the natural world

If you’re interested in learning about what a wild horse roundup entails, listen in today. For the past three weeks, the Bureau of Land Management has been rounding up and removing wild horses from the North Lander Complex in Wyoming. This roundup started on July 1st and will likely wrap up in the next couple of days as they are close to their goal for removal.

2024/05/27

The BLM’s online auction ended two weeks ago. My personal experience tells me that for both wild horses and their future human partners to benefit, you need to witness the horses in person. How they interact with other horses. How they move. What is their personality? This is very important. An online event simply cannot offer this. We need to make significant changes or completely dismantle the program. If you have ever wondered what it would be like bidding to adopt a wild horse or burro in the

Freedom for Wild Horses ·

2024/05/06

I met Thor for the first time in 2011 when I saw him napping in the flowers on a summer's day with several families of wild horses, some of the wildest on the range. Immediately I thought that Thor was the most beautiful foal I had ever seen, with his blue eyes and distinctive faded Sabino Pinto markings. I would go on to follow Thor for the remainder of his life. This week, I dedicate this episode to Thor and all the wild horses who were recently captured during the McCullough Peaks roundup. Tune

Have you ever wondered what it would be like to live with Mustangs?

While they will always be wild at heart, at least I know that they now have a safe home. Listen in to hear the story of how Claro, Cremosso, Micah, and Helios came to live with me.
