One time, two times, three times the power « Straight from the Horse's Heart: "What is the difference between a wild horse and a captive horse? What is the difference between a trained and an untrained horse? What is the difference between a mare and stallion? What is the difference between a horse tortured by the BLM and a horse tortured by a killer buyer? The correct answer is NONE."

A Report from “Mustangs on the Hill” « Straight from the Horse's Heart

A Report from “Mustangs on the Hill” « Straight from the Horse's Heart: "It was a big day for wild horses in Washington D.C. on Tuesday as The Cloud Foundation staged its “Horses on the Hill” event and the Bureau of Land Management’s Wild Horse and Burro Advisory Board met giving barely a listen to activists protesting wholesale roundups decimating herds in the American West."

Advocates from across the U.S. lobby Congress on September 29 to protect America’s Wild Horses and Burros « Straight from the Horse's Heart

Advocates from across the U.S. lobby Congress on September 29 to protect America’s Wild Horses and Burros « Straight from the Horse's Heart: "Washington DC - Wild horse and burro advocates from across the country will gather in Washington DC on September 29 to lobby on behalf of S.1579, the Restore Our American Mustangs (ROAM) Act. They will also ask Senators to halt the Bureau of Land Management’s devastating practice of “managing” wild herds into extinction."

Straight from the Horse's Heart

Straight from the Horse's Heart: "Over the Labor Day Weekend of 2009 the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) bumbled an ill-conceived and mismanage round up of the world famous “Cloud’s Herd” of the Pryor Mountains in Montana. Ignoring their studies and the advice of experts they stampeded horses down 5,000 feet of rocky mountainside in 95+ degree heat only to break apart family bands, pump the mares full of PZP and injure the horses. Despite public outcry, orders from a Congressman and questions from Senators the local BLM office in Billings destroyed this beautiful herd.

This presentation was written in honor of Cloud’s herd and the pictures are exclusively from that “gather”. Get outraged, get mad and then get on the phone and call your elected federal officials and tell them that enough is enough."
