For centuries before there was an America, wild horses ran free on this continent—but now they compete with millions of head of livestock on the rangelands of the Western United States. The Bureau of Land Management is proposing a plan to sterilize wild mares using a procedure that is at best controversial, and at worst, painful and inhumane. On the next episode of Voices for the Animals, host Michele Coppola will be talking with Brieanah Schwartz, Government Relations and Policy Counsel for the American Wild Horse Campaign, an organization that advocates tirelessly on behalf of America’s iconic mustangs. Millions of your tax dollars are being spent on round-ups and warehousing these horses and there are more humane alternatives. Find out more—and how you can be a voice for these horses—on the next Voices for the Animals.
