To: <anne@protectmustangs.org>Anne, nothing has changed at Palomino Valley since our talk last Friday. We currently have some upper respiratory illness and cases of strangles at the facility. The PVC staff along with the contract veterinarian have been closely monitoring the situation and the horses have responded to treatment and are improving.Shipment for adoption purposes or to other facilities is 3 to 4 weeks depending on pen location and negative culture results. At this time there are no plans to ship to long term pastures from PVC. Broken Arrow does not have any respiratory illness or strangles events at this time.Thanks Jeb—
