Stop The Mass Euthanization Of Our Wild Mustangs

One of the biggest threats to America's Wild Horses is our own government. The National Wild Horse and Burro Advisory Board voted to recommend euthanasia of all unadopted wild horses and burros currently being held by the government in holding facilities throughout the United States.

We must act now to protect 45,000 horses from euthanasia. Please let the Department of the Interior and the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) know that the American public will not stand for the mass euthanasia of our nation's iconic wild horses and burros.

Sign the petition today and send a message to the Secretary of Interior and the Director of BLM. Let them know Americans will not stand for the mass euthanization of our horses.
Subject: Please reject the proposal to euthanize America's wild horses

To the Bureau of Land Management and Department of the Interior:

Please officially reject the National Wild Horse and Burro Advisory Board's recommendation that the agency euthanize all unadopted wild horses and burros currently being held by the government in holding facilities throughout the United States.

For the past 20 years, the BLM's failure to properly manage the Wild Horse and Burro Program has led the agency to focus solely on round-up and removal as a primary management strategy for wild horse and burro populations. As a result, the agency now finds itself with more than 45,000 wild horses and burros in holding facilities at a high cost to American taxpayers. This financial crisis is the direct result of poor decisions made by government officials.

These horses do not deserve to suffer for the agency's failure to properly manage the Wild Horse and Burro Program.

Instead, the government should continue to care for the animals it removed from the range -- either by maintaining them for the remainder of their lives in holding facilities, or repatriating them to rangeland areas previously inhabited by wild horse populations.

Further, it is incumbent that the agency make real changes to fix the wild horse and burro program. The agency must reconfigure their management paradigm to focus on humane management tools. Please commit to a timeline to undertake these vital efforts to protect wild horses.
