AWHC’s Letter of Support for Fort Polk’s Horses

The American Wild Horse Conservation (formerly American Wild Horse Campaign) has long been a champion for the humane treatment and protection of wild horses across the United States. In a recent effort, AWHC has extended its support to the horses of Fort Polk, advocating for their preservation and humane management.

Fort Polk, a U.S. Army base located in Louisiana, is home to a significant population of wild horses. These horses have become an integral part of the local ecosystem and cultural heritage. However, they face numerous challenges, including habitat loss and management conflicts.

AWHC's letter of support emphasizes the importance of protecting these horses in their natural habitat. The organization calls for collaborative efforts between the military, local communities, and conservation groups to ensure the horses' well-being and sustainable management.

By advocating for non-lethal management strategies and increased public awareness, AWHC aims to secure a future where wild horses can thrive in harmony with their environment. The organization's commitment to these horses reflects its broader mission to safeguard America's wild horse populations.
