Jack,
We’re in the thick of roundup season with American Wild Horse Conservation (AWHC) observers on the ground at the Devil’s Garden wild horse roundup in California. Here, our field journalists are facing severe observation restrictions, including being placed far away and behind trees so they’re not able to see what’s actually happening to our wild herds at the trap site.
The truth is, these roundups happen far from the public eye. And they are extremely traumatic for the wild horses who have to endure them. During capture, they face lifelong trauma, injuries, and in the worst case, death.
Please make a contribution to AWHC to help us be boots-on–the-ground to document the atrocities mustangs and burros face at the hands of our federal government. [[link removed]]

From last year’s roundup season, through now, our observers have brought to light some of the cruelest treatment of our wild herds by federal officials on public lands.
* In November, in Nevada, a 12-year-old black stallion was forced to run at full speed to exhaustion until he collapsed. Forty minutes later, he was euthanized on public lands. Help AWHC fight back, donate today >> [[link removed]]
* In July 2024, after a roundup in Nevada’s Blue Wing Complex, a mare being chased by wranglers collapsed on the ground and was unable to stand up. Then she was repeatedly kicked in the head by a wrangler. Help AWHC fight back, donate today >> [[link removed]]
* In October 2024, multiple foals were seen hobbling in holding facilities after a helicopter roundup in South Steens, Oregon. Help AWHC fight back, donate today >> [[link removed]]
* That same month, during the Twin Peaks helicopter roundup in California, the back door of a livestock trailer flew open, sending nine horses tumbling out of the moving vehicle. Help AWHC fight back, donate today >> [[link removed]]
More than 8,000 of America’s most majestic animals were traumatized, terrorized, ripped from their families, and in some cases even killed just this year.
Every day, their freedom and right to roam are under attack, and every day AWHC is fighting back against this cruel and costly system. They can’t fight for themselves. But you can. Will you rush a gift today to fight back against this cruelty and safeguard their freedom? [[link removed]]
