Jack — our wild herds are suffering. Each year, thousands of innocent wild horses and burros are stripped of their freedom in cruel and costly Bureau of Land Management (BLM) helicopter roundups.

These operations ​​are extremely traumatic events. Many horses and burros suffer severe injuries trying to escape the helicopters, and some even lose their lives during and after the roundups end. Those who do survive are often forced to endure the heartbreak of being separated from their families as they’re shipped off to overburdened government holding facilities.

AWHC is fighting to shift the federal government’s approach away from unnecessary and costly helicopter roundups towards a strategy of humane, in-the-wild conservation. An important part of this fight is our observation work, documenting as many roundups as possible to expose what happens during these operations and share it with the world. [[link removed]]

To this end, we’ve assembled and trained a team of photographers and videographers to cover as many helicopter-capture operations as possible. Through their powerful reports, photos, and videos, we expose the harsh realities of these operations, creating undeniable evidence of cruelty and informing the public, the media, and Congress about the need for change. Our observation program is extremely critical to protecting wild horses and burros, but the truth is, we simply can’t do this without your support. Getting our observers out to the remote areas of the West where roundups are conducted (and keeping them there) isn’t easy. The average cost to cover their food and lodgings and to equip them with four-wheel-drive vehicles is approximately $2,500 for just one week at a roundup.

Jack, your generous contributions enable us to send our observers to as many roundups as possible to ensure no wrongdoing against these cherished animals goes unrecorded. We are the boots on the ground, fighting to hold the BLM accountable for its inhumane and unsustainable management practices.

With the deadline to reach our $200,000 End-of-Year goal just days away, can you make a contribution right now to help us continue our roundup observation work in 2025? Every contribution up to $100,000 will be MATCHED. This is a great opportunity to bolster one of our most critical programs. [[link removed]]
