The Jarbidge RMP protest on September 22, 2014, was a significant event in the ongoing efforts to protect wild horses and burros on public lands. This protest highlighted the concerns of advocates who are committed to ensuring the humane treatment and preservation of these iconic animals.
The American Wild Horse Conservation (formerly American Wild Horse Campaign) has been at the forefront of these efforts, advocating for policies that prioritize the well-being of wild horses and burros. The protest aimed to raise awareness about the challenges these animals face due to land management practices that often overlook their needs.
Participants in the protest called for a reevaluation of the Jarbidge Resource Management Plan (RMP), urging authorities to consider the impact of their decisions on wild horse populations. The event served as a reminder of the importance of public involvement in land management decisions and the need for policies that reflect the values of conservation and humane treatment.
