For years, Colorado’s Little Book Cliffs wild horses have been humanely managed using PZP fertility control. Colorado’s Grand Junction Bureau of Land Management office now wants to use the controversial Gonacon fertility control, which is known to destroy mares’ ovaries and in turn likely destroy natural and beneficial “wild” behaviors. In addition, BLM is looking to remove 42% of the estimated 200 horses currently living peacefully on our public lands.
Please take one minute to join us in our call to use only the PZP fertility control, which has been proven safe and effective for decades, and to ditch plans to remove any horses from the already small herd.
Our government is supposed to be responsive to us — so we must be sure to tell them what we want and why. Please take a minute to join us in telling BLM that we want our wild horses in Colorado managed humanely using PZP — not by the removals of members of the herd.
