Wild About Wildlife Month
The following is from the American Wild Horse Campaign:
Happy Wild About Wildlife Month!
The American Wild Horse Campaign (AWHC) is wild about preserving the lifelong freedom of America’s wild horses and burros in their natural habitats. And those habitats include a host of other wildlife who live alongside these iconic animals! Last year, we launched our Land Conservancy Project to protect the ecological balance of America’s wild herds and their cohabitants across America’s western landscapes. In celebration of Wild About Wildlife Month, will you donate to fuel our land conservancy project?
FUEL THE LAND CONSERVANCY PROJECT |
According to the Bureau of Land Management’s (BLM) own range data, much of the land it manages has degraded in condition due to extractive uses, such as the overgrazing of livestock. These activities — along with fire and drought — have depleted habitats for all wildlife, including protected species like wild horses and burros.
Our land conservancy pilot project area includes more than 3,000 acres of rolling foothills, sprawling meadows, and natural spring water around the Pine Nut Mountains of Nevada. This innovative conservation initiative provides a safe environment for thousands of animals to live, graze, hunt, and play.

We’re proud of the progress made on this exciting project, which solidifies conservation as the key driver behind our advocacy for wild horses and burros.
As always, thank you for standing with our wild herds.
Onward,
Team AWHC
