Today’s episode serves as an update for the continuing litigation against the BLM. The BLM has plans to zero out herds in one area, reduce herd size in another area, and do a land grab spurred by the Rock Springs Grazing Association. To discuss this, I'm joined by the executive director of American Wild Horse Campaign, Suzanne Roy.

Listen in this week to find out how you can help with this very important, and perhaps the most significant, litigation issue brought against the BLM by the American Wild Horse Campaign. Roughly 2,000 horses and 40% of wild horse habitat in Wyoming are at stake, and that’s just the start. Suzanne and I recount the history, the parties involved, and the decisions that led to this action.

Have you ever wondered what a Curly horse looks like? Where wild Curly horses live and roam? What makes Curly horses so special? If so, this episode is for you.

I introduce you to a wild black stallion named Bubba who was my first introduction to Curly horses and tell you about these amazing animals. As you listen to this episode, I hope you will take action to help these special wild horses. Salt Wells Creek is one of two herds, along with the Great Divide Basin, that is slated to be zeroed out under the new land use plan. There are currently three lawsuits pending to stop this action, so please, listen in and consider helping if you can.

The BLM’s online auction ended two weeks ago. My personal experience tells me that for both wild horses and their future human partners to benefit, you need to witness the horses in person. How they interact with other horses. How they move. What is their personality? This is very important. An online event simply cannot offer this. We need to make significant changes or completely dismantle the program.

If you have ever wondered what it would be like bidding to adopt a wild horse or burro in the online corral, don't miss this episode. I also share my thoughts after going through this process myself, why I think it needs to change, and why my goal is to see reforms that prioritize the well-being of the wild horses being adopted out of the BLM's system.
