FWD: I’ve seen the majesty of California’s wild horses

The following is from the American Wild Horse Conservation:

As the Senior Communications Manager for AWHC — and as a California native — I’ve seen firsthand the beauty and the heartbreak of our wild horse country. From the rugged Mono Lake basin, to the forest in Devil’s Garden and the open ranges of Twin Peaks, these herds are more than symbols of freedom — they’re part of California’s identity. 

Every time I visit these places, I’m reminded of what we’re fighting for — the thunder of hooves across the desert, the quiet strength in a mare protecting her foal, the living spirit of the West.

Only 3,000 wild horses remain in California, and without the hard work and support of people like you and I, these moments could vanish forever. Our team is doing everything we can to keep California’s herds wild and free.

But this work takes resources — and we urgently need your help. We’ve far exceeded our signature goal for this petition — thank you to each and every one of you that added your name!

If you didn’t have a chance to sign, or if you would like to do more to protect California’s wild herds, can you make a donation today to power AWHC’s work to protect these iconic horses and many more innocent wild herds across the West?

Thank you for your support,
