Why Do I Rescue Wild Horses?

Image
Throughout the past year, I often asked myself questions to help me reexamine this mustang rescue purpose and how I can continue in this work successfully. Often, I have to remind myself why I began Mustang Mission. I’ll be honest, at times I’ve doubted my decision to start a mustang rescue. It hasn’t been easy, but as I continue pressing on, I realize more and more how blessed and honored I am that rescuing animals is a main part of my life. I want to share with you the questions I’ve asked myself and the answers to those questions. Why do I think that rescuing mustangs and burros is important ? Mustangs and burros are amazing animals. They are incredibly smart and talented. None of them should be wasting away in holding pens since the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) won’t consider releasing them back into the wild.  Most mustangs removed will become willing partners if given the chance.  Some mustangs aren’t great candidates for being gentled and should be released onto a s...

Are Wild Horses & Burros Overpopulated?

The BLM's method for population counts is not efficient.  The Double Observer Method is conducted over several days as the BLM counts wild horses and burros from ...

Freedom Given Back: Renegade's Story

Image
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.
