Learn more about “Animal Welfare”
Animal welfare refers to the well-being of animals, ensuring they live free from suffering and distress. In the context of the American Wild Horse Conservation (AWHC), it emphasizes the humane treatment of wild horses and burros, advocating against inhumane practices such as helicopter roundups and surgical sterilization. AWHC promotes humane population management through scientifically proven methods like the PZP fertility control vaccine, which allows wild horses to thrive in their natural habitats. The organization works tirelessly to hold the Bureau of Land Management accountable for animal welfare violations, ensuring that the rights and dignity of these iconic animals are respected and preserved.
