Blue Zeus The Movie

A documentary that highlights the enduring spirit of America's wild horses fighting for survival against a shockingly inhumane and corrupt US Gov’t bureaucracy

We always see Blue Zeus guarding his family, but here he sleeps with Nike, his great love, watching over the herd. With her on watch, he knows he can rest. Their love is one for the ages, a testament to the fact that #wildhorses feel emotions and form deep family bonds. #love

Curly Girl is a kill pen save who was so lucky to join this family, where she’s thrived with motherly guidance from the #mares. She is loved and adored by all the kids of #bluezeus, including her grooming buddy, Flora, who is one of his daughters with the mare Gaia.

Stargazer was not part of the family of #bluezeus on the range, but joined them at Skydog. She’s best friends with Nyx, another roan beauty and BZ’s daughter with the mare Gaia. The kids have all been gentled, but the parents remain #wildhorses and are raising them that way.

Blue Zeus in all his splendor, eating with his family. He may not be the biological father of Huckleberry, but has played that role in his life in every other way. We continue working to get #bluezeusthemovie on a streaming platform, which is not easy.

It was wonderful to meet this incredible woman in Florida. She moved heaven & earth to save Wild Boy from a kill pen & bring him to #skydogsanctuary. An ethereal #wildhorse, he leads a band of boys that has come together beautifully. To read his story: https://t.co/KmkF5M5aJZ

“There was a picture of Blue Zeus and a video of him and his family being chased by a helicopter into a trap. I thought there must be a way to find him and bring him and his mares and offspring to the sanctuary.” https://t.co/qtkvNKwAVA

Wild horses are continually scapegoated as ecologically destructive, when the real problem is cattle—which outnumber them 30:1.

These are public lands. So why should a select few be allowed to push wild horses off their habitat for government-subsidized livestock grazing? 🤯
