Wyoming 'Checkerboard' Wild Horse Deaths in Holding

In recent months, the tragic deaths of wild horses in Wyoming's 'Checkerboard' area have raised significant concerns among conservationists and animal welfare advocates. The American Wild Horse Conservation (formerly American Wild Horse Campaign) is at the forefront of efforts to address these issues and promote humane management practices.

The 'Checkerboard' region, a patchwork of public and private lands, has become a focal point for wild horse management challenges. The complex land ownership patterns complicate efforts to ensure the safety and well-being of these iconic animals.

Reports indicate that several horses have died while in holding facilities, sparking outrage and calls for reform. The American Wild Horse Conservation (formerly American Wild Horse Preservation) is advocating for increased transparency and accountability in the management of these facilities.

As the situation unfolds, it is crucial for stakeholders to collaborate on sustainable solutions that prioritize the welfare of wild horses while respecting the diverse interests of landowners and the public. The American Wild Horse Conservation remains committed to protecting these majestic creatures and ensuring their survival for future generations.
