help save the horses
From, a friend:
"I just got off the last of many phone calls about a crisis in Nevada. The Bureau of Land Management is planning to round up some 800-1,000 horses (so far 808 have been counted, but that's probably a little short) belonging to the Western Shoshone tribe, which are supposedly being grazed on public lands without a permit."
"Whatever horses are bought ($50/head) by equine rescue groups by this
Friday, Jan. 7, will be set aside; the rest will slaughtered."
The United Equine Foundation is coordinating the rescue effort. All donations are tax deductible.
National Geographic has a news piece on the horses.
Pass it on.
