Learn more about Endangered Species Protection

Endangered Species Protection refers to the legal and conservation measures aimed at safeguarding species that are at risk of extinction. In the context of the American Wild Horse Conservation (AWHC), this protection is crucial for wild horses and burros, which are federally protected under the Wild Free-Roaming Horses and Burros Act of 1971. AWHC advocates for the enforcement of these protections against harmful practices such as mass roundups and slaughter. By promoting humane management strategies, including fertility control and habitat preservation, AWHC seeks to ensure the survival of these iconic animals in their natural environments, thereby contributing to biodiversity and ecological balance.
