"Broken necks, broken legs, how is that logical — let alone the fact that it's inhumane and abusive to these wild animals?" said Louise Martin with the Virginia Range Wildlife Protection Association. https://t.co/F3NzJynzE1

@dog_rates Oh bless! Walks are just too hard

Let’s chase the BLM employees with a helicopter all day and see who survives! #Cruel #BLM #wildhorses

According to the June 9th BLM situation report on the Cañon City disease outbreak, there are several new cases of a respiratory illness observed in the last few days. Most appear to be strangles. One horse has died. Wild horses are safest in the wild, not in cramped holding pens

[Habitat for Horses @HfH]

Sanctuary, or slaughter. Every year, thousands of horses aren’t given this choice. They’re shipped off to meat factories in Canada and Mexico. Together we can put a stop to the slaughter. Help us pass the SAFE Act today: https://t.co/bqkIbeYeoj

[American Wild Horse Conservation @FreeWildHorses]

In the wake of 145 wild horse deaths at BLM Cañon City corrals, we are calling for an emergency halt to all wild horse & burro roundups citing released assessments documenting widespread animal welfare violations that place thousands of animals at risk.

[Return to Freedom @ReturnToFreedom]

On Friday, we called on the House Energy and Commerce Committee to schedule a full committee vote on the SAFE Act to ban horse slaughter as soon as possible. Read our press release and learn how you can take action: https://t.co/HYxtjcFa8n #yes2safe #nohorseslaughter

[Return to Freedom @ReturnToFreedom]

Good news: The House Subcommittee on Consumer Protection and Commerce will hold an informational hearing on the SAFE Act to end horse slaughter on May 26. See the note attached to this tweet to learn how you can help move the bill forward. #horses #yes2safe #nohorseslaughter

Wild horses are being rounded up en masse and the public is told it is for the sake of public lands and the horses themselves. But what about all those cows and sheep? @CBSDenver investigates. 🙏🐴https://t.co/UGWcUuzHqC

[American Wild Horse Conservation @FreeWildHorses]

THANK YOU 🙏to @repdinatitus and @RepCohen for calling on @SecDebHaaland to investigate the BLM holding facilities & a halt to #roundups following the deaths of at least 129 captured #wildhorses at the BLM's corrals in Cañon City, Co https://t.co/bxFD9gW8FJ

[American Wild Horse Conservation @FreeWildHorses]

Today, one of the largest wild burro #roundups in BLM history begins. Helicopters are being used to chase and captured the docile burros from the Black Mountain HMA, a 1+M acres on public lands in AZ. We will have field reps on the ground to bring you the latest. #burroawareness

In less than 24 hours, 3 AL police officers were shot in the line of duty. I’m devastated to learn Sheffield Police Sgt. James “Nick” Risner succumbed to his injuries this morning. I offer my heartfelt prayers to his family, fellow officers & community.

A family of wild horses in Adobe Town Herd Mgmt Area (WY). Enjoying what may be their last few days of freedom. Soon the Bureau of Land Mgmt's helicopters will fly around October 7th in the largest helicopter roundup and removal of #wildhorses in US history.
