Wild Horse & Burro Alliance "Never Give up. Never Give In. Never back down." WILD HORSE ALLIANCE will be a united voice of people from all over the world for American wild horses and burros.

An alliance with dedicated advocates around the world for the protection and preservation of American wild horses and burros. American mustangs and burros are currently being "managed to extinction". They have no voice of their own. We must be their voice. The government has proven it believes these icons of the American frontier and western heritage are expendable by continuing roundups, despite

public outcry. Captive mustangs and burros in government holding facilities now outnumber those left in the wild. The Department of the Interior and Bureau of Land Management (BLM) have been given a job by America's citizens, entrusting to them the care and protection of these symbols of the American West and our fierce pioneering spirit. However, the people's wild horses and burros are being removed from public rangelands at alarming rates, with herd numbers falling below recommended healthy levels for genetic viability. In addition, lands originally set aside by the Wild Free-Roaming Horses and B***os Act of 1971 have been reduced by 19 million acres, and since year 2000, coincidentally, America lost nearly 50% of their wild horses and 85% of its wild burros. Correlation? It is recognized that America's "wild mustangs and burros" and the North American last frontier ~ the "wild west" are synonymous, and both to be cherished and protected.

2025 federal budget proposal requests $15m for “permanent sterilization” of wild horses.

The Bureau of Land Management’s Fiscal Year 2025 budget request is seeking $15 million for mass permanent sterilization of wild horses and a team of twenty FTEs to carry out the proposal.

Mass sterilization methods are not transparent within the request, but previously proposed methods include high-risk invasive surgical procedures such as castration and removal of ovaries (ovariectomy) which have been subjects of AWHC litigation for over a decade.

The 2025 proposal was released days after Congress cut the BLM’s FY 2024 budget by $5.9 million while preserving $11 million in 2024 funding for reversible, humane fertility control implementation, suggesting Congress will closely scrutinize and challenge the highly controversial 2025 proposal when it appears before House and Senate.

The National Academy of Sciences has previously cautioned against castration of wild horses due to the adverse effects on band and social integrity and deemed ovariectomies in field settings inappropriate due to risk of hemorrhage and other severe complications.

The proposal was strongly denounced by American Wild Horse Conservation, which said:

“Permanent sterilization contradicts the BLM’s legal mandate to protect America’s wild horses in self-sustaining, free-roaming herds [and] could have far-reaching, extinction-level consequences for the entire wild horse and b***o population.”
