We are pleased to announce the rally of community support by Animal Law Coalition, The R.A.CE.FUND, True Cowboy Magazine, Animal Advocate TV, IMA Studios and Americans Against Horse Slaughter who are raising awareness and support for Wild for Life Foundation's campaign to bring SAVING AMERICA'S HORSES to public bi coastal release this year.  

"We hope that this will be just the beginning," says Katia Louise, founder Wild for Life Foundation. "As they say, it takes a village... And it has been a great honor to work together with so many of the nation’s finest equine welfare professionals; whom have graciously stepped forward to contribute their voice and their work through this important documentary film."
This touching and empowering educational film is receiving rave reviews and has won multiple international awards through the film festival circuit, but  it needs a wider audience. Timing is pivotal for America’s horses; our horses need this important film to be publicly released into theaters THIS YEAR. 

Please help bring this important film to the public eye by supporting its theatrical release campaign today.  You can also help by visiting the "On the Trail to the Oscars; SAVING AMERICA'S HORSES" campaign page, "liking" it and sharing it with your friends.  

Now see the "The Moment of Truth", a clip inspired by viewers of "SAVING AMERICA'S HORSES". If you are moved by this uplifting clip, be sure to share it with your friends, family and colleagues today. 

SAVING AMERICA'S HORSES is a brilliant and hard hitting exposé that reveals how the public has been misled by government agencies and corporate interests that run over the laws that are supposed to protect the horses, the public and the environment.

Join us in helping to raise awareness about the urgency of this important issue by forwarding this message to your friends and family.

About the 2012 bi Coastal Theatrical Release: The campaign to support SAVING AMERICA'S HORSES on Indiegogo ends on Sept 28th.

Horse Slaughter to Remain Illegal in House Bill

 By Laura Allen
Saving America's Horses ABM
Animal Law Coalition

Update June 16, 2011: By a vote of 215-200, the U.S. House of Representatives approved H.R. 2112, the 2012 agriculture appropriations bill.

Rep. Jim Moran's amendment made in committee remained intact in the final version.

Under Rep. Moran's amendment, inspections required for horses bound for slaughter for human consumption will remain de-funded as they have been since 2006. This means if the House version becomes law, commercial horse slaughter for human consumption will remain illegal.

Los Angeles, CA
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE 

March 16, 2010

WFLF Humanion Films is excited to announce that Animal Advocate Television (AATV) will be running a promotional spot in support of “Saving America’s Horses A Nation Betrayed”.

AATV Wisconsin's premier animal welfare television show airs in March, 2010 on CBS affiliate WMLW. The show aims to raise awareness for animal shelters and horse rescues, encourage the public to foster and adopt and will inform and educate on state and federal animal welfare legislation as well as encourage parents to teach children compassion at an early age.

During each show AATV's host, Debra Lopez usually covers 2 shelters and 1 horse rescue. In addition, there's a segment called Legislative/Advocacy. During this segment show covers two main bills, the HR 503, the Prevention of Equine Cruelty Act and the state puppymill bill. The promotional clip for “Saving America’s Horses A Nation Betrayed” will be shown during our Legislative segment of the show. As a lifelong friend to horses, and Co Founder of Americans Against Horse Slaughter, Debra Lopez has vowed to cover the horse slaughter bill on her show until this legislation passes.


WFLF Humanion Films salutes Animal Advocate Television for their support of this import CAUSE. The horse slaughter issue is heating up and the proponents have been very aggressive in their misleading promotion of this insidious industry. We have been working around the clock in the trenches and on the front lines as we investigate and document this issue. WFLF Humanion Films’ Advisory Board, Honorary Board and Cast for SAVING AMERICA’S HORSES A NATION BETRAYED is comprised of the Nation’s top anti slaughter equine experts and specialists. This film project is a very special collaborative effort which will bring this controversial matter to the public eye.

We rely on the generous donations made by our supporters. We need your help to raise the needed funds for completion as we come into the final phase of production. Your support is greatly appreciated.


The mission of his CAUSE driven feature documentary film is to protect all equines from slaughter, both domestic and wild. SAVING AMERICA’S HORSES is a compelling compilation of expert testimony and true life stories. It takes a tender yet honest look at the reality that American horses are born into, and the love, joy and respect they give us. Through following the life stories of these proud and majestic American horses this film explores the untold truth about what should be “the quiet retirement of Thoroughbreds”, “the freedom of wild horses and burros” and “the peaceful demise of once loved horses”. Featuring Paul Sorvino, Tippi Hedren, Michael Blake, Linda Gray, Ginger Kathrens, Dr Nicholas Dodman, Paula Bacon, Nick Zito, Craig Downer, Dr Nena Winand, Dr Elliot Katz, Brad Woodard, Steve Long, John Holland, Laura Allen and many others!
