This is no mustang rescue. A mustang rescue would save them and then put them back where they belong, in the wild. This is isn a true WILD HORSE SANCTUARY. If you want a true wild horse sanctuary, watch the video of The Black Hills Sanctuary. Mustang sanctuaries dont get in mustangs and then break them. This movie is a discrase to all Mustang sancutaries as this is not one.

@mainalisa0 Not all of us can afford 11,000 acres to release wild horses. Lifesavers has been a champion for mustangs for 15 years and has grown into the largest wild and domestic horse rescue in the world measured by the number of horses we've kept from going to slaughter; the number of horses we give care to, and the number and impact of our programs.

Your naive statement that a mustang rescue would put them back where the belong suggests that we should break the law and rerelease wild horses to BLM land once they have been gathered, processed and adopted. We strive to give our unadoptable wild horses the chance to live as freely as possible in the natural habitat properties that we have been able to acquire. (continued)

We have 150 living on 6000 acres in South Dakota, and 120 on 600 acres in California. That's better than what the horses were facing when we rescued them. We adopt the ones we can to make room for more horses that need us. In a perfect world I wouldn't have a job. And for your added information we don't "break" them, we gentle them.

Okay. Maybe I was harsh but turning them into domesticated horse is breaking them in. They are taught to obey humans the way domestics do. They need to stay a little wilod. I was a little harsh but I have a very strict opinion on the way that wild horses need to be. Sorry if i was that harsh.

Great video. Needs to be updated to reflect all that Lifesavers has accomplished, and how much the ranch has grown, over the past few years.

But I already have a horse and she is a money stealer! But will pray that those horses will all get lovely permanent homes!

[siarrahbabey14]

God bless you and your center! I really want one of those horses but o

I adopted my mustang mare from them! She was broke bareback and in a halter :P so much for "wild."
