What is Wild Horses Lives Matter?
Wild Horses Lives Matter is a nonprofit organization dedicated to protecting America’s wild and at-risk horses. We focus on advocacy, education, monitoring government actions, and supporting humane, ethical treatment of wild horses both on public lands and in holding facilities.
-
Are wild horses really in danger?
Yes. Wild horses face ongoing threats including roundups, loss of habitat, mismanagement, and potential policies that could weaken protections. Many end up in crowded holding facilities, separated from their family bands, and at risk of entering the slaughter pipeline without strong safeguards.
-
How does this organization help wild horses?
We track government policy, share accurate updates with the public, raise awareness, advocate for humane on-range management, and support rescue efforts when possible. We also provide education to help people understand wild horse behavior, the ecosystem, and their rights under the law.
-
Where we get our information?
We monitor federal agencies (like the Bureau of Land Management), public records, court filings, government reports, and field observations.
-
How can I get involved?
You can help by sharing information, joining live Q&A sessions, volunteering, reporting wild horse issues, donating, or simply spreading awareness on social media. Every action helps protect horses that cannot speak for themselves.
-
How do donations help wild horses?
Donations support mission-critical work such as research, advocacy campaigns, website maintenance, community outreach, document preparation, FOIA requests, and emergency assistance for wild or at-risk horses. Every dollar makes an impact.
-
Are my donations tax-deductible?
Yes. Wild Horses Lives Matter is a recognized 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, which means all donations are tax-deductible to the fullest extent allowed by law. Your support helps us continue advocating for the protection and humane treatment of America’s wild horses.
