Action Alert: BLM plans to Sterilize all of Idaho’s Saylor Creek Wild Horses!

Posted by on October 11, 2015

We’re almost there. . . . We need to raise $10,000 more to fund a critically important lawsuit to stop the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) from sterilizing every one of the beautiful wild horses living in Idaho’s Saylor Creek Herd Management Area. This action will set a very dangerous precedent for America’s remaining wild horse and burro herds…Will you help us defend these horses and stop this destructive plan?

Dear Denise,

We knew this day was coming and now it’s really happening. The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) is pushing forward with the destruction of America’s wild horses and we need YOUR help to stop the agency’s latest assault.
.
The BLM’s current target: the population of wild horses living in the Saylor Creek Herd Management Area (HMA) in southern Idaho, which the agency wants to turn into a “non-reproducing herd” by permanently sterilizing all the horses living there.
.
We know the BLM won’t stop with the Saylor Creek horses. If we let this happen, it will be the beginning of the end of our wild herds on public lands in the West.
.
The BLM wants the historic Saylor Creek wild horses to die out so it can replace them with mustangs captured from other areas…. turning a protected habitat for wild, free-roaming horses into a holding facility for captured and sterilized mustangs. Unbelievably, the BLM is calling this devastating plan a “sanctuary,” as if destroying the Saylor Creek herd is a good thing for the horses!
.
This is the definition of “managing to extinction” and it’s going to happen if we don’t stop it.
.
We can’t let them get away with this.
.
With your help, we stopped the BLM from sterilizing other herds in Nevada and Wyoming, and we prevented it from eradicating mustangs from a Nevada herd area. We also convinced two federal courts to toss out rancher lawsuits seeking the removal of tens of thousands of wild horses from our public lands.
.
We’re ready to file a lawsuit to defend the Saylor Creek wild horses, but we can only do so with your support. . .  . Will you stand with us again?
.
From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for continuing to stand with us as we fight to Keep America’s Wild Horses and Burros Wild.
.
With Gratitude,

Suzanne & the AWHPC Team
