Blue Zeus is still streaming on Prime, for those who have it. Please tell everyone you know to watch the documentary. It is making a ton of difference in raising awareness and helping people understand the issues facing our wild horses and burros.

Getting the story of #BlueZeus out into the world is one of our biggest accomplishments. At the heart of it is the love story between these horses, which has done more to show in a real way the sacred bonds mustangs form and what a crime it is for the BLM to tear them apart.

Wild Horses: How Blaming "Decades of Mismanagement" Lets The Trump Administration Off the Hook
From gutted budget protections to a pending regulatory rewrite, the administration's anti-wild horse agenda is a freight train moving at warp speed toward America’s wild herds.

2/ It’s been a big year for our advocacy and education. We have gained 30,000 new followers since #BlueZeus and the NYT article dropped. We will not stop bringing it back to one horse, one life to save. Today, that was Steve. He’s coming home.

A lot of people promote themselves as wild horse experts, but Chad Hanson really is one. He’s the real deal and we owe him such a debt of gratitude for taking part in the movie.

4/ Federal law strictly prohibits the BLM from using taxpayer funds for any sale that results in commercial slaughter, but they find ways around it by using middlemen to do their dirty work.

2/ The report confirms that the federal program is actively funneling thousands of federally protected wild horses and burros directly into commercial slaughter pipelines.

1/ Bess and (Bumble)Bee spent most of their lives wild. What a huge shock to be rounded up, confined, and dumped in the slaughter pipeline without enough to eat. In safe hands now, they will be turned out with a band of seniors, including Mabel, when they have put on weight and recovered.

6/ We always want our rescues to have a companion so they don’t head into their new lives alone. Anything left over will save another mustang we have our eye on. If any of our larger donors want to reach out to me to help a 2nd horse get on our trailer, we would love your help!

5/ Advocacy is an important part of our mission, but we keep on reaching in to save one mustang ir burro at a time. There are dozens in kill pens right now and the border is opening back up for horses to ship to slaughter. Let’s help Elwood.

1/ Fundraiser for Elwood. A #wildhorse from New Pass Ravenswood NV. Born wild and free 19 years ago, now in a kill pen in Oklahoma ! He’s horribly thin and also sick, so we have to get him to a vet hospital. To donate: bit.ly/3I1ucWT

Thank you to the kind people who donated for Elwood, an exceptional senior #mustang. He’s actually been in the vet hospital for weeks. I didn’t introduce him sooner as it was touch & go for him. He had severe kidney failure and was on an IV and many meds to save his life.

Dave’s book “Wild Horse Country" is a beautifully written history of wild horses. He reveals how the BLM cycles every 10 years to a different program designed to funnel as many mustangs to slaughter as they can, until they get caught. Well worth a read!

5/ Early wild horses carried the dun factor. Multiple studies in equine genetics have shown that this gene played a role in camouflage and survival. It helped them avoid predators in harsh environments by allowing them to blend into dry and open landscapes.

6/ Strike the word “knowingly” from sales agreement prohibitions. Countless buyers and repeat offenders claim they “didn’t know” they had sold BLM mustangs or burros for slaughter. The BLM has added a few more words to the agreement, but this is no improvement.

2/ Raise the sale price: Sale Authority allows the BLM to sell wild horses for $25. Ownership transfers immediately to the buyers, who then flip the animals for their meat price of $500-$750. This incentivizes people to buy federally-protected horses cheap to turn a large profit.

3/ Ban Repeat Offenders: Our investigation over the last 1.5 years (which we shared with NY times) documented networks of buyers doing this repeatedly, even after they had been reported to the BLM. It is a violation of the sales agreement they all sign. The BLM must ban them.

4/ Prosecute Buyers Who Violate Sales Agreement. It is a federal offense for buyers to resell wild horses and burros for slaughter after signing the sales agreement that says they won’t. The BLM has the authority to take action, but does not do it.

5/ Reclaim any mustang or burro sold to kill pens within 6 months: We reported groups of Sale Authority mustangs and burros in kill pens 8 times since March 2025 and none of them were reclaimed. Some shipped to slaughter, even after the BLM assured us they would not.
