At Risk Wild Horses Proven Native to Western United States! « Straight from the Horse's Heart: "There’s a modern day range war raging across the high deserts of the American west with the demise of the wild mustang as the ultimate goal.

The Bureau of Land Management and the National Forest Service administer 55 million acres that has been designated by law to be devoted principally to the welfare of wild horses and burros.
