T FITCH?
They are clearly destroying it and our national icon, the wild mustangs.
We, as Americans, need to stand up and force the Government to do what
they have been elected to do which is govern for the people and the wishes
of the American people.

tCm: When did you become a wild horse advocate and why?
RT: Terry, my wife, and I have been involved in the betterment of equine
welfare way back in the mid to late ‘90’s. We got involved in horse rescue
in Brazil and brought that involvement, and a rescued horse, back to the
USA. Our epiphany, came in September of 2009, Labor Day weekend when
we intended to have a family reunion. At the same time we had
established a relationship with Ginger Kathrens of the Cloud Foundation. Cloud’s
herd was to be rounded up for the first time and it looked like it was going to
be called off but, then, it wasn’t. Instead of the family reunion, we met with
Ginger in Montana and she brought home how high the abuse and lack of
humane caring on the part of the BLM is of the wild ones. On that roundup,
which we attended, I asked one BLM representative ‘Why are you doing
this?’ His flippant response, coupled with a grin, was “Because we can.” I’ll
never forget his smug demeanor and grin. That was the flame that ignited our
fire and set us on the path we are on now. We’re not going to give up on our
wild horses or the issues with our Government’s mismanagement. We’re
here for the long haul. My blog has become a daily outreach to the public to
teach them about the wild horses and now the inhumane slaughter issue.
