Unwanted horses are discarded like trash at an alarming rate. Sometimes people don't know what happens at an auction, they think that they are just offering someone the opportunity to purchase their horse. Unfortunately, they are... and more often than not it is a kill buyer that does the purchasing.

On average, about 100,000 horses are sent to slaughter every year. They are transported across the borders into Mexico and Canada where they are inhumanely processed into meat products and shipped to foreign countries for human consumption.

We have been fighting to halt the slaughter of American horses for 25 years by supporting the various legislations introduced year after year but have failed to be passed by Congress. We continue to fight for horses on a daily basis.

We currently have over 400 horses in our care, most of these were saved from feed lots and auctions. We do this with the support of donors, we do not get any federal or state funding. All of our support is from the general public.

That is where you can help - join our wild horse herd! Become a fundraiser with the help of your friends and family.
