Saving the American Wild Horse, a poignant documentary hosted by Viggo Mortensen, Sheryl Crow, Peter Coyote, and directed by Emmy Award-winning Documentary Filmmaker, James Kleinert, examines the politics behind the Bureau of Land Management's (BLM) controversial policies regarding wild horses on public lands and questions the fate of America's Wild Horses and Burros, whose very existence is in jeopardy. An original score features music by Rick Allen (drummer of Def Leppard), Lauren Monroe singer songwriter, Craig Sutter, Keith Secola, Robert Mirabel, and Preston Pope. *Screened at the Newport Beach Film Festival (2008)

  • take them out of the wild so you can ship them off to mexico to get slaghtered look your right about them not being truly wild but your wrong about about them starving because they arent, the main reason people love wild horses so much is because they symbolize freedom.

  • Save the wild horses!! We need change to keep our American Hertiage!!

  • @TheBlueRainEquus like ive said before ur goofy ass has probaly never even seen a "wild" horse in person or worked w/ cattle bison or on wildlands in general..but u know huh? lol...ive been out working, guiding & hunting hard around our place this month & have seen no less than 50..saw one new colt his mamma and a big stud yesterday morning in fact. actually not to bad looking animals right now, & the colt was cute as hell, but THEY DONT BELONG RUNNING AROUND LOOSE ON THE LAND PLAIN & SIMPLE!!

  • @TheBlueRainEquus aslo...ur right about the choas when humans get involved and especially when we dont do what is right...like REMOVING ENVASIVE SPECIES...the land here HAD NO HORSES UNTIL PEOPLE GOT INTO THE MIX! fuck ur a stupid ass no brained idiot arent you? man created this strain of domestic hores...let them get loose...now they are fucking up land and endagering native species...& a bunch of dippy ass bleeding hearts like you think they belong here so the problem stays...choas indeed

  • @TheBlueRainEquus LOL! man ur clueless and might i add very uncivilized..if u dont like humans so then do the planet a favor and kill urself :)...as far as cattle not filling a niche left open by bison..HA! ive happend to work w/ both and BOTH act nearly identical as far as grazing and movements go..

  • @bigNMhillbilly Cattle do not fill any niches, they are not wild bison. There is probably more of them today then there were bison back then. The land was perfect when wild horses were around, and then when humans get in the mix, all of a sudden, it's chaos. Interesting isn't it?

  • @TheBlueRainEquus this land is not made to support horses, they move differently and eat more pound for pound than any wild species, cattle fill a niche left open by bison pretty well, horses have no niche to fill as there was nor is anything resimbling them in the natural native species of this continent. the pop needed to sustain a genetically deverse & healthy herd just simply cannot be supported here on this land w/o adversly effecting the natural habitat & native species, simple as that!

  • @TheBlueRainEquus like i said, ive lived and worked and played around "wild" horses all of my life, i know what they do to the land and what kind of shape they are in where i live, sure these herds u see on nat geo programs up in some refuge in montana where they get the human care ALL DOMESTIC ANIMALS SHOULD HAVE look healthy, but here in the desert southwest that is just not the case, nor can this land sustain an animal like them on the scale needed to sustain a healthy population

  • @TheBlueRainEquus yeah ur right stupidity and cruelty on ur level as well as the lack of care for the natural world, frankly it makes me want to puke when i here dipshits like you spit out complete and utter nonsence....especially when you have absolutly no first hand experience in the matters which your are mouthing about

  • @bigNMhillbilly Ok you need to calm down for a second because I think your anger issues are handicapping your common sense. You are shooting lies and make-believe at me from all directions and I really don't care because you are speaking no truth. Go ahead and swear at me it only makes you look even more like some redneck hillbilly.

  • @TheBlueRainEquus since yo obviously have never seen or been around any agriculture, horses, or wild land, you should try and read up on the subject, try the book "nobody's horses" i worked around and lived around that herd! it was horrible what was going on with them and a round up was the biggest blessing those poor things could have ever hoped for, along w/ the endangered species on that land that they where putting at risk for extinction!! you need to grow up and do some learning rainbow!
