Did you know Jack, that it only costs $30 to dart a single mare with the fertility control vaccine, PZP? This vaccine is humane, scientifically backed, and does not affect wild horses’ behaviors. Did you also know that this fertility control is critical to keeping horses wild?
Your $30 donation will fuel our in-the-wild conservation initiatives that keep wild horses in the wild, where they belong.
Here at American Wild Horse Conservation, we are proud to run the world’s largest humane fertility control program for wild horses on Nevada’s Virginia Range. Through this groundbreaking initiative, we are showing the public, the Bureau of Land Management (BLM), and our elected officials that there is a better way. This program is scientifically sound and a more cost-effective way to manage our wild horse and burro populations rather than subjecting them to brutal helicopter roundups year after year and funneling them into overburdened holding facilities.
Our program is successful and even was the basis for a new peer-reviewed scientific paper, published in the journal Vaccines, that affirmed the feasibility of fertility control programs in large wild horse populations.
Even better? Since the start of this program in 2019, there has not been one roundup and removal of the Virginia Range Mustangs. Your generosity fuels this program and ensures that we can continue and expand this critical work.
So Jack, we’re asking: Today, on March 30th, will you make a gift of $30 or more to fund our PZP program and help us continue our groundbreaking conservation work?
The success of our PZP programs has been so critical in our fight to protect wild horses because lawmakers and the public are starting to see there is a better way to manage our beloved wild horse and burro herds. And your support will help us continue to provide the cold, hard, scientific evidence that lends legitimacy to our calls for more humane management of our wild horses and burros.
This fiscal year, 20,000 wild horses and burros are set to be rounded up through brutal and traumatic helicopter chases. Many of these animals will be funneled into holding facilities, adding far too many to the 64,000 already languishing in these pens. But we can fight back with your support!
Will you please donate $30 today, on March 30th, to support the continued success of our PZP program and help us keep horses in the wild where they belong?
Thank you for your support in the fight to protect America’s wild horses, Jack
