Thanks for posting this. I had no idea that the future of these great horses was in serious jeopardy. As someone who advocates for disenfranchised people, I can also lend a hand to disenfranchised equines.
PS-Thanks for sharing more pics from your Basin trip. Such lovely horses….
On a side note, have you ever met Cloud and his band? My family has always enjoyed watching the PBS specials about him, and I was pleasantly surprised when I read about him on your friends blog. 🙂
Melanie,
I have met Cloud – in 2007 – and I’m going back to Pryor Mountain this fall, after the roundup. I would encourage you to visit the Pryor Wild blog and Pryor Mountain Wild Mustang Center Web site – both linked under my “blog roll” – for more information. Matt has the gather plan linked on his blog.
