“Hogtieing a young foal and leaving it in the middle of a stampede of wild horses shows how inhumane and incompetent the BLM’s roundup contractor is,” states Anne Novak, executive director of Protect Mustangs. “They should be fired immediately.”
“We are grateful Holly Hazard witnessed the alleged abuse,” Novak explains. “If she hadn’t seen this, the public would not have known that the cruel roundups are continuing despite the BLM’s promise for a ‘new normal’ by bait trapping.”
“We need more eyes on roundups to protect mustangs,” says Novak.

Gather report states 2 foals died on that day. I wonder if one was the foal in question?
