Help Save Mustang Rune!

-

 


This little mustang, Rune, needs your help!  We have until Friday to get her out from a kill pen in Kentucky, before she ships to be slaughtered.  Rune was gathered from Nevada a of couple years ago, and has been let down by humans ever since.  She is a mustang with so much potential and doesn't deserve such a horrific ending.  As a "nationally protected icon" Rune shouldn't even be in this terrible situation.  She should still be living wild and free with her family band in Nevada.

It is our goal to rescue this little mustang, defy what her grim future looks like now, and give her the best home she's ever known out of the wild.  Giving her a happy ending requires community effort - please donate if you can and please share this fundraiser with others.  It will cost $600 just to bail her out.  We will be quarantining her on our property, but we need funds for vet care, transport, feed, and hay.  Please consider helping Rune - it would save a life!

Ember is Available for Adoption!

Ember is available for adoption!  This is your chance to own a very special little mustang!  Ember is great on the ground and has been started lightly undersaddle.  She is very well desensitized and absolutely loves people, attention, activity, and adventures.  She is very easy to handle and works hard to please people.  Ember is very good with children and has been a part of my family’s farm field trips for children.  She is easygoing, gentle, fun, curious, and brave - with a bit of spice! 😁 Ember is from the Goshute HMA (Herd Management Area) in Nevada.  She is 13hh and would be best suited for a smaller rider.  Despite her size, though, she is very strong and has a long stride!  Instead of listing all that Ember can do, I’ve made a video for you to watch ! Ember’s adoption fee is $2,000.  If you are interested in Ember, you can fill out our adoption application .  Or, email me at mustangmissionrescue@gmail.com if you have any questions!

Freedom Given Back: Renegade's Story

Freedom Given Back ----------- In south Oregon, lives one of the most magnificent wild horse herds - an opinion held by many wild horse lovers.  The South Steens Wild Horse Herd is home to some of the most intricately-colored pinto horses - pintos that you never knew could exist.  The mustangs’ home is a spectacular location mainly composed of canyons, but with a harsh climate.  For centuries, only the strongest mustangs have survived. This wild horse herd is followed closely, and in 2006, an adorable blue roan pinto was born.  People all over the country fell in love with this colt and began following his life.  Excitement grew as he became a bachelor, then a band stallion and father.  Renegade thrived in his wild home and lived for his freedom and family.

Georgia's Wild Horses Need Your Help!

Recently, Georgia’s only wild horse herd, living on Cumberland Island, has suddenly been thrust under the spotlight.  The reason?  A few organizations and individuals filed a lawsuit, demanding that the National Park Service (NPS) manage the wild horses by causing them to die out (via fertility control). Cumberland’s Wild Horses need some management (there is not enough forage) due to the lack of natural predators on the island, but the NPS has never managed them.  That is the cause for this sudden push to eliminate horses on the island. However, we’re advocating that the horses remain on the island, where they’ve been and survived for the last 300 years.  We’re also advocating for minimal management using the safe, effective, and reversible PZP fertility control vaccine and that mares are carefully selected to ensure genetic diversity within the herd. I really encourage you to read more about this issue on my website. Now, I’m launching a campaign to “Save the Cumberland Island Wild H
