  • In depth article highlighting the history of the wild horses at Theodore Roosevelt National Park, North Dakota, their connection to Sitting Bull and over a century of well-documented presence in the Park. The wild horse herd recently gained national attention due to a helicopter crash that occurred as Park officials rounded up the wild horses with intentions to sell them at a local livestock auction. http://www.endurance.net/channels/2007/11/unbridled-history.html
  • HOOFLINKS, a blog by the American Horse Defense Fund who's mission statement includes "dedicated to the protection, conservation and humane treatment of the equine species", discusses the National Wild Horse & Burro Advisory Board and its instrumental role in decimating wild horses and burros from public lands in favor of exploitative interests. There is even a link to American Herds for more information on the issues. Wasn't that nice - thanks AHDF!!! http://hooflinks.blogspot.com:80/
  • Two days still remain on BLMs monthly Internet Adoption of Wild Horses & Burros. To view horses and burros or to adopt one, go to: https://www.blm.gov/adoptahorse/onlinegallery.php
