We sue. We win. We protect wild horses
The following is from the American Wild Horse Conservation:
Dust. Helicopters. Families of wild horses split apart as they run across our public lands.
Meredith, this is what our field teams witness every time the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) carries out a helicopter roundup.
Our team is fighting back around the clock to protect our wild herds. This year, we’ve made history with a number of landmark legal victories for wild horses and burros. Because of the generosity of supporters like you, Meredith, and the power of the AWHC Legal Team, together we:
- Wyoming Lawsuit: Stopped the BLM’s largest attempted eradication of wild horses in history.
- AIP Victory: Forced federal agencies to follow the law, protecting horses from slaughter.
- Preserving the Slaughter Ban: Secured critical federal protections against horse slaughter in Congress.

But our 2025 legal docket isn’t cleared yet – the BLM is considering several other actions that put our cherished wild horses and burros in danger. So, we’re turning to our community to prepare for the fights ahead.

It’s a long road we have ahead of us, but our legal team has a nearly 90% success rate and stands at the ready.
These victories weren’t just the byproduct of our tenacious legal team. Our AWHC coalition of field observers, advocates in Congress, and supporters like you made these wins possible too, Meredith.

Thank you for continued support. We couldn’t do this without you.
