The Heber Wild Horse Territory Plan is now back "On Hold" by the U.S. Forest Service. This does not mean the horses are safe for the long haul. So all the wild horse supporters take a deep breath and keep doing all you have been doing to support the Hebers. Keep spreading awareness and invite people to follow our page for the latest developments which if you've been following our page for the past year and half, you know things can change at any given time.
See Something, Say Something
When you go into the Apache-Sitgreaves National Forests please keep your eyes open for things that look suspicious. We know people have tried to capture these horses for various reasons because there are some wild horses still running around with halters from failed capture attempts. These horses are protected by law.
WILD FREE-ROAMING HORSES AND BURROS ACT OF 1971
(PUBLIC LAW 92-195)
"It is the policy of Congress that wild free-roaming horses and burros shall be protected from capture, branding, harassment, or death; and to accomplish this they are to be considered in the area where presently found, as an integral part of the natural system of the public lands."
If you see something that doesn't seem right you can notify:
Navajo County Dispatch at:
(928) 524-4050
or
Forest Service Dispatch at:
(928) 532-2700
or send us a private message with information and we will notify the proper authorities.
Thank you once again for all your support!
