The DATA doesn’t LIE.

How “collaboration” became the conservation movement’s most effective tool for managing dissent, rewarding compromise, and turning public lands decisions over to the industries that profit from them.

Dalton raced to greet his mum Priscilla. She ran for joy, straight out of the trailer, to see every friend in her herd. Her daughter Shasta - a mule whom she nursed when she was orphaned, and raised as her own - is without doubt the happiest to see her mom and does not leave her side.

My love for the long ears, is beautifully captured by photographer Mary Hone.

Another Assault on Our Lands

The Trump admin tried—and failed—to sell off the Arctic Refuge to major oil companies. Big Oil didn’t bid during a recent lease sale, but a handful of bids by two Alaska companies threaten to pollute this globally significant habitat.​ Earthjustice is fighting back in court.

2/ Bend Equine put out a call for a nurse mare. A kind, very selfless lady answered. She was about to wean her yearling from a #mare, Mouse, who was still in milk. She brought her to the vet yesterday. They connected immediately and wee Fergus understood the assignment. He’s latching on & nursing.

3/ By Jove, he’s got it! With Mouse sweetly nuzzling and guiding him to the right spot, wee Fergus is latching on and nursing on his own. The worlds of a mustang and thoroughbred converge for the good of both. We are so grateful!

Wild Boy’s eclectic band of brothers taking off for Spring Valley to meet up with the herd for summer. What a moment seeing them thunder past me to reclaim their wild lives without human intervention. #wildhorses

There are now 57 gas turbines—built without air permits—powering Elon Musk's xAI data center outside of Memphis. That's enough to emit 5x the amount of nitrogen oxide as the nearby Memphis International Airport.​ Earthjustice, Southern Environmental Law Center, and NAACP are fighting this in court.

>> WWP a conservation group and vociferous critic of the cattle industry, followed up with its own appeal on Monday. The group also contended that BLM’s new grazing requirement amounted to illegal rule-making. BLM’s change also should have triggered a NEPA analysis, the appeal says. <<

Native elk are not trespassers on their own landscape. As wildlife increasingly faces pressure from livestock interests across the West, this ruling is an important reminder that public wildlife belongs to all of us. www.abqjournal.com/news/appeals...

Colorado is a black mustang #mare. She was rounded up from Little Book Cliffs CO in 1998. In 2021, we found her in a kill pen in poor shape after years of neglect. One of our lesser known #horses, she loves living out her golden years at #SkydogSanctuary in a #wildhorse herd.

Fight these criminals !!’n

Tomorrow, the Trump admin will announce the results of an oil and gas lease sale in the Arctic Refuge. We’re fighting back in court.​ This is another effort to sell out our public lands to boost corporate profits, while Indigenous communities, wildlife, and future generations carry the risk.​

For me this administration is out for money and power; and all of us and wild things be damned. We must rise up.

The emergence of Anthea, who may or may not be interested in catching butterflies.

Burning coal is up to four times more expensive than getting electricity from renewable sources. And as President Trump clings to the past, his massive giveaway to coal companies will mean higher bills and dirtier air for the rest of us.

Wonderful people in Tennessee saved Pippi & Zilli from ending up in a bad situation. Little Pippi was gentle, but Zilli - like most #zonkeys - had been mentally broken by efforts to train her and wanted little to do with humans. Respecting her wildness and need for freedom, they contacted us.

Palestinians are being starved. Soup kitchens are often their only meal and GSK is expanding to fill the void. Our expansion is due to governments and world leaders failing the Palestinian people; we’re here to serve our community a hot meal and let them know they are not alone. #gazasoupkitchen

“When one thinks of the amount of wild game that are currently replaced by cattle, it is staggering. 35,000 cattle = 70,000 elk.”

Cricket, a #wildhorse from #PaisleyDesert OR, suffered badly being rounded up and was subsequently abused in a failed adoption. She has gone through a physical and mental transformation since being rescued and is settled in Cruiser's band high in the #skydogsanctuary wilderness.

In 2021, the BLM removed #wildhorse Honor so brutally from Great Divide Basin WY, it left her traumatized. It took time for her to settle at Skydog, but thanks to the patience of the care team, her first buddy, Wildflower, and the mares in Cruiser's band, she knows she is home and free.

Excellence 💗💗💗

A young California condor flew into Oregon last month, marking the first time in more than 120 years that one of the critically endangered birds has flown free in Oregon’s sky, according to the Yurok Tribe–led Northern California Condor Restoration Program.
