After more than 2 1/2 years of work and campaigning by Madeleine Pickens and thousands of supporters, the BLM has officially agreed to support going forward with the development of the wild horse Eco-sanctuary for the horses in holding.

According to Ms. Pickens:

“This final acceptance by the BLM this week was the hurdle we had yet to get over. We are so thankful for the opportunity to start our Pilot Program with 1,000 horses, and we aim to get all 36,000+ horses in holding soon after. This action by the BLM shows great leadership on the part of Bob Abbey and Mike Pool for taking a stand for our beautiful mustangs and accepting the solution we have offered. We give our sincerest thanks for the monumental cooperation on the part of the BLM for an alternative to the holding pens.

This is a truly a dream come true and I’m thrilled to share this news with all of you!! Let the rejoicing begin!!"
