Stop the Slaughter of Wild Horses and Burros
Over the past few weeks, countless news articles have circulated around the world regarding the Bureau of Land Management's (BLM) announcement that the agency might begin euthanizing many of the 32,000 horses in holding centers in order to "balance the budget." Killing horses is not the answer to the BLM's financial woes.
America's wild horses are an icon of the west. We need your help to keep wild horses and burros on our public lands safe.

As a concerned citizen, I am writing to urge that the BLM end the war on wild horses and burros.
The BLM can resolve its budget crisis by ending the expensive practice of removing horses from the range, revamping its adoption program and maintaining the current populations on rangelands with the implementation of immunocontraception programs.
Thank you.
