Wild Horses Won’t Be Removed from North Dakota National Park
In a monumental win for animals, the National Park Service has just announced that it has canceled its plans to eradicate wild horses from North Dakota's Theodore Roosevelt National Park.
The herd of over 200 wild horses are descendants of horses that have lived in the area for over 150 years, long before the land belonged to the National Park Service.
This incredible victory for wild horses is the result of two years of hard work by animal advocates who have been fighting to protect this historic herd.
This is an important step in the right direction and a great moment for horse lovers across the nation. However, thousands of other wild horses are still in danger throughout the United States.
This win shows that pressure campaigns by determined advocates really can create change.
