ABOUT US:
Wild for Life Foundation (WFLF) is dedicated to providing lifesaving rescue and sanctuary for abused, neglected and slaughter bound equines; preserving and protecting wild horses and burros; and informing, inspiring, and empowering the public through cultural visual arts education for the prevention of equine cruelty. We build connections between people and animals through community
enrichment and social engagement. Through
education, rescue, sanctuary, the arts and sciences, Wild for Life
Foundation informs, inspires, and empowers people to speak and act on
behalf of saving, preserving and protecting animals and their
significant roles in our world’s ecosystem and history; for the greater
good and a better world now and for generations to come.
We are an all volunteer charity including staff, CEO, Board of
Directors, Advisory Board and Honorary Board Members whose contributions
of time and talent are all donated. We save lives and break the cycle of animal cruelty for at risk equines
by providing for their vital ongoing stewardship and facilitating
appropriate transition to new forever homes. Founded in 2008, WFLF has served a
steady stream of rescue horses since that time. In 2013 WFLF's rescue program experienced a very positive 172% increase of equines saved since 2012.
Wild for Life Foundation’s educational film project, "SAVING AMERICA’S
HORSES: A NATION BETRAYED" is an inspirational social action tool for
promoting wild horse conservation and preservation initiatives,
strengthening natural partnerships between people and horses, and
supporting the prevention of equine cruelty. It's a powerful feature
documentary film with a deeply passionate look into the world of both
wild and domestic horses; their connection to our history and the future
of humanity.

WFLF and its wild horse preservation initiative serves as an educational platform for the protection of wildlife through the provision of long term sanctuary of wild horses and burros removed from America's rangelands. WFLF supports comprehensive and science-based solutions that lead to systemic change, reduce suffering, and cultivate a more compassionate society.
The Lifetime Equine Refuge is the primary lifesaving and community enrichment program within the Wild For Life Foundation providing a second chance at life to abused, neglected and at risk horses through rescue, sanctuary and education. Through WFLF's Lifetime Equine Refuge we provide medical care, housing, farrier and feed for abused and neglected wild and domestic equines; rehabilitation and training needs for rescue horses transitioning to adoption and therapy; and ongoing sanctuary for rescue horses in need.

17 NAVAJO HORSES RESCUED DURING
ROUNDUPS NEED HOMES
Seventeen Native Navajo
wild horses, ages 6 months -5 years old, were captured in November from the open rangelands of New
Mexico narrowly escaping slaughter during the U.S. government funded roundups,
sponsored with American tax dollars, and under the misguidance of the BLM and
Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA). The
horses are temporarily safe thanks local rescue team members of the Navajo Horses
Rescue and Recovery Mission, but time is of the essence to get them to safety. These
horses need immediate transport out of New Mexico to safe harbor.
They were picked up “as strays” during the recent roundups, just outside the reservation. Despite their obvious healthy appearance, they were claimed to be “starving due to a lack of forage on the reservation”.
To learn more read the below links… The first link is an overview and the second link a detailed explanation with the latest events listed at the bottom of the article. This is a hot-button issue and Saving America's Horses and Wild for Life Foundation are doing their utmost to intervene on behalf of the horses through legal and other ethical means.
The Wild for Life Foundation (WFLF)
has set up the Navajo
Horse Rescue and Recovery Mission as a go-to source for updated information
and as a place where rescues/ supporters/ potential adopters can connect as

effort. The link to join the Facebook
