We're often asked how we can tell horses apart. White markings like the unique star and snip on this beautiful mare's face help. But even without markings, the shape of the ear, placement of the hair whorl on the forehead, and nostril shape all help distinguish one from another!

Today marks Black liberation in the U.S. and a major turning point in a long, ongoing struggle for justice. As we work to protect what's wild and free, we look to the legacy of Black resilience, leadership, and liberation as a model for change—and why it matters. #juneteenth

🚨 The One Big Beautiful Bill Act proposes to sell off 2–3M acres of USFS national forests and BLM lands within five years—and make over 250M acres of our public lands eligible for sale. 📢 Take action: Call your Senator and urge them to protect wild horses: (202) 224-3121 ☎️

Every year, the federal government spends hundreds of millions of taxpayer dollars to round up and confine wild horses and burros. 🚨 Now, under the Trump Administration’s FY26 budget proposal, wild horses and burros could face mass slaughter. 🚨 #Keepwildhorseswild #protectthem

As these Virginia Range mustangs in Nevada show us, wild horses are deeply emotional beings. They communicate through subtle cues like ear position, facial expressions, and vocalizations such as snorts and whinnies, revealing a rich inner world through their body language!

Wyoming's curly horses are such a delight. They truly make the wild a more magical place. 💫 🦄 🌟 What do you think of this little one's ringlets?!

🔥 Conner Fire Update (NV): A fast-moving wildfire ignited 6/20 near Gardnerville, burning 17,700 acres. It has impacted 1,400 acres of AWHC’s Fish Springs Land Preserve—but the wild horses are safe. 🙏 The fire is now 51% contained. Restoration efforts are ahead. Stay tuned 🤞

Summer roundups are less than a week away, with 4,481 wild horses slated to be captured. Each of these horses—and the 64,000 already languishing in government holding—faces the threat of slaughter if the President’s budget is enacted. Take action here!: bit.ly/3ZOnQDP

Horse Colors Part 2: White horses 🐴 Cremellos/Perlinos/Smoky Creams - they can be difficult to tell apart without a DNA test, but we think they are beautiful regardless! With their pink skin and blue eyes, they are a stunning sight to see on the range ✨

The President’s FY26 Congressional budget request threatens to strip critical protections for wild horses. If enacted fully, this proposal opens the gates for slaughter of over 62,000 wild horses and the thousands rounded up this summer. Take action now!: bit.ly/3ZSldRp

One of our favorite things about curlies, aside from their calm and friendly personality, is their curly eyelashes! 💅 We love that every part of these special animals—from their tail to their mane, to their ears to their lashes—seem to want to curl. 😍

✨ Happy Sunday from Glace! Her name means "coated with sugar" or "candied" which we think is quite fitting for this sweet girl! She was originally born into Ziggy's band, and just this year was taken in by band stallion Suntan 🐴

🌄 These young stallions from the Virginia Range, Nev., like to shake things up when they start maturing—challenging older stallions, sneaking in to try and steal a mare. Sometimes they succeed, if only for a few minutes, before being put back in their place by another stallion!

On 6/6, a wild foal was found shot to death near Mono Lake, CA. This foal was part of the Montgomery Pass herd. AWHC is offering a reward of $5,000 for info that leads to an arrest. Please contact the anonymous WeTip hotline at 1-800-78-CRIME or visit WeTip.com.

✍️ Why do petitions matter? 📝 Because public pressure shapes laws. The 1971 Wild Free-Roaming Horses and Burros Act passed unanimously after Americans flooded Congress with letters. When we don't raise our voices, laws are shaped without us. Take action!: bit.ly/3ZSldRp

Horses not only shaped American industry and economy, but our foundational values of freedom, independence, and courage. How ironic is it that we’re stripping wild horses of the very ideals they helped inspire? Join us in celebrating our wild and domestic friends this July 4th 🎆
