In the meantime, the BLM conducted a clandestine roundup of the Buckhorn Wild Horses, originally scheduled to begin in August 2010.


Discovery of and investigations into the shooting deaths of six federally protected wild horses on the California-Nevada border exposed the surprise roundup by the BLM of over 200 horses under wintry conditions, already resulting in the death of one mare. The move is expected to decimate the herd. Read full report and take action >>

If you have already written and called, please write and call again!  If you have yet to take action on this issue, we urge you to do so today.
