Jack,
We reached out a few days ago because the wild horses on Mono Lake are at risk of cruel helicopter roundups approved by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) and the United States Forest Service (USFS) — and the fight to protect them continues.
It’s not too late to call on the USFS to instead manage these wild horses humanely, in collaboration with the local Indigenous community. With enough of us, we can urge lawmakers to abandon a plan that will traumatize America’s wild horses and instead support one that honors Indigenous leadership, protects wild horses, and conserves the environment.
Act now! Tell the USFS to honor the Indigenous communities in the area by keeping the wild horses of Mono Lake wild. [[link removed]]

Jack,
The Montgomery Pass wild horses, who roam free near Mono Lake, California — are at an imminent risk of losing their freedom and possibly their lives due to upcoming helicopter roundups.
Tell decision-makers to reject helicopter roundups and protect America’s iconic animals. [[link removed]]

Near one of the oldest lakes in America roam about 700 majestic and free-spirited wild horses. For generations, they’ve lived, survived, and thrived in this beautiful area, living in harmony with the land. Beyond their natural beauty, these wild horses have a deep cultural importance and connection to the local tribal communities.
Despite this, the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) and the United States Forest Service (USFS) approved a plan to implement helicopter removals that will traumatize and uproot these culturally and ecologically important wild horses and strip more than half of the population of their freedom.
This brutal operation is not only cruel — it is completely unnecessary. In fact, American Wild Horse Conservation (AWHC), the Utu Utu Gwaitu Benton Paiute Tribe, and local communities are calling on the USFS to adopt a tribal led management plan that keeps these wild horses wild.
These iconic wild horses deserve to remain free, protected, and managed with a culturally grounded alternative management approach that is grounded in compassion and respect. Your support is critical. Will you step up now to defend the American mustangs of Mono Lake before it’s too late? [[link removed]]
