I’m so pleased to be working with Sky Mountain Wild Horse Sanctuary – writing a grant proposal for them and getting to know the founder and ED, Karen Herman – who is quite a lady!!
Check out the front page New Mexican piece from November 8th written by Staci Matlock about the controversial and very challenging BLM oversight. http://www.santafenewmexican.com/localnews/111912mustangroundup
The Wild and Free Roaming Horses and Burros Act of 1971 gave the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) oversight of “these living symbols of the pioneer spirit of the west.” BLM management of wild horses has resulted in 45,000 wild horses currently being held in long term holding facilities, more than roam free in the wild. Sky Mountain is dedicated to innovative action to keep wild horses free.
