Comment on Wild Horses: After the Gathers by VivianGrant

This situation has been critical for so long, there is hardly an adjective left to describe the trouble the wild horses and burros are in. They will be zeroed out in another two years if we do not get moving.

What is frustrating is people who sit by and watch. I know with the Fund, it is always the same people who donate, write letters, call Washington, anything you ask them to do. The others somehow seem to think that by reading about it, they are participating.

Stick with it, because without people like you, absolutely nothing would be accomplished, and the horses are depending on each and every one of us who are willing to work tirelessly on their behalf.

There is so much work to be done, it is overwhelming. I am a volunteer at Return to Freedom and I feel like I want to do more. I have written my representatives, written the BLM, and I do what I can financially. How can I help get the word out and get more people involved? I want to help. It makes me sick to my stomach knowing this is going on and I feel helpless.

Comment on BC Horse Council report on slaughter by northpeace

I personally think that it is dangerous to base an opinion or coalition on human feelings and emotions. I believe that as a society we have to deal with the issue of unwanted horses from a scientific stand point. Painting stories concieved in ones mind about the terror running through a horses mind in a killing box will not solve the problem or aid it in anyway. The truth is there are thousands of unwanted horses (and more being born every year). I personally believe that slaughter plants are a humane and acceptable way of both managing horse numbers and utilizing a resource. Would it be more acceptable for a horse to starve to death and waste away? What are some other options for controlling the horse population? Could we somehow control unresponsiable breeders? Hats of to the Bouvry’s for running a difficult business in a humane, professional, and responsiable way. Thanks Mona for the report

There are various help options available for parents who are struggling to deal with their children. If the teen issues are critical, parents must take professionals advice to choose the best program for them.
