There Was No Warmth, There Was No Love

by R.T. Fitch ~ author of “Straight from the Horse’s Heart

He was young, so young that life had no fear or pain.  His life revolved around the warmth that he felt from his mother, her milk and the sun.  All the warmth made him feel happy, it made him glow, it made him feel loved.

His family was not large but they made him feel safe, they did not play often as he was the only baby but they made him feel loved.  There was his father, bold and strong; his young mother, his older sister and two aunts that kept an eye on him if he should stray far from his mother.

It was an autumn day as he danced around the brush and nipped at his sister’s back feet.  Sometimes she would strike out at him but through persistence he learned that she would turn and run him off.  To him, that was playing.  But today, as he nipped at her hocks, there came a great sound, a rushing, roaring noise the likes of which he had never heard before.  He saw the tension in his sister’s stance then watched her legs lung her forward as his family bolted away from the sound roaring at them from behind.

He did not know what to do, there was the ever increasing sound, a pressure from behind and above, dust, running family and he could not keep up.  The harder he tried the further away his family band seemed to pull away.  The dust stung his eyes, his lungs were on fire, he gave his small legs the freedom to run as fast as they could to escape the giant, mechanical bird that threatened to consume him.  He never saw the gulch, the drop-off, the dried creek bed as he went airborne over the edge in a cloud of dust and landed on the hard gravel bed, below.  There was a snap, a bolt of searing hot pain and his right front let would not work nor let him stand.  He struggled and flopped about the dried creek as the roaring, man-made condor descended upon him; from out of nowhere strange horses appeared with odd creatures on their backs.  He felt no warmth, he felt no love, he now felt only one thing, fear.

One of the back riders slid off from a strange horse, he tried to crawl away, the two legged creature planted one of its feet on his neck so he could not move while the noisy bird of prey sped off.  The rider pulled something from his hip, pointed it at his head, he felt a moment of insurmountable panic and in a flash of white light and a bang, he was no more, ever, finished, destroyed.  He felt no warmth, he felt no love, forever.

His mother heard the shot, the giant buzzard was bearing down on the band from behind and she could not see her baby.  Without thinking of her own safety she pulled from the running band and ran back directly underneath the snarling bird of prey.  Underneath and back she ran until she found the strange horses with riders standing over a crumpled body on the floor of the dried creek bed, it was her baby.  She charged at the rider on the ground to drive him away from her baby, he jumped back just as snake like things reached out and grabbed her neck.  She spun around to attack again and another serpentine vine flew out from one of the strange horses and rider and choked itself around her neck.  She lunged against the pressure and their grip only tightened.  She reared and twisted as the strange horses pulled back and increased the strangling grip on her neck as she watched the ground rider return to her crumpled baby.  She could no longer breath, there was fire in her chest, her vision was blurred and began to go dark as she saw the rider look at her, smile and then kick the crumpled form of the baby squarely in the chest with only a hollow thud heard in reply.  Her heart exploded, she felt no warmth, she felt no love, she was destroyed from within and without; gone, forever.

Later that day, far across the now silent plains, a computer screen flickered with the written text:

Friday, Oct 15

Summary: Operations continued at Magnolia Bench in the morning. Helicopter-assisted roping west of County Road 5 took place in the afternoon.

Animals gathered:  4
Animals shipped:
0
Gather related animal deaths: 1
Cause: During helicopter-assisted roping a seven-month-old colt broke its leg and was euthanized onsite.
Non-gather related animal deaths: 1
Cause: A three-year-old mare died with no visible injuries after being roped. A necropsy was performed, which found a pre-existing heart condition. Significant changes to the musculature of the heart was found, indicative of a chronic and progressive problem.

There was no warmth, there was no love, there was only a cold and empty silence while a nation wept and no one listened.

  2. Powerfully written, you give words to the depth of my sorrow, my tears for the anguish and grief I feel. I feel so betrayed by my government that I pledge allegiance to – so I wipe my tears and gain resolve that we must never, never, never give up ! ! One lesson I learned from the story told in “In Pursuit of Honor” and from the effect of “Black Beauty” is that there is power in a well told story. Yours has that power – I ask permission to print and share – we need to get as many Americans involved as possible ! !

  9. This story is so Heart-wrenching I don’t even know what to say. RT your words definitely put one ‘on the scene’. Unfortunately it is not the first horror story I’ve heard. I live in Montana where the Pryor herd is. So Many beautiful herds of horses are going through the same types of things. I just don’t understand why these atrocities are not on Front Pages of Newspapers, magazines etc. Seems mainstream media keeps them buried from the majority of John Q Public. I have spoken to friends in ‘Big Cities’ etc and they have heard nothing except, what we who know of this, get to them and they too are outraged. What else can we do as private horse lovers but keep posting and passing along, signing petitions etc, to get it OUT THERE! Sounds like the retelling of the horror stories of WWII Concentration Camps! Except with 4 legged

But BLM really doesn’t care– just a few less horses to “process” and “warehouse”. When will President Obama put a stop to this carnage–he can end a war in a foreign country–but he can’t stop BLM??

Maybe one day they will want to go out west and see real wild horses. Hurry up Obama family because those wild horses may soon be only a legend— a “remember when”— part of a documentary— gone– maybe there will be catchy tune about them.

    The BLM reported the deaths of the colt and mare on Friday. Truth and fact.

    Disclaimer: Literary license taken on exactly how it may have occurred. These deaths prompted us to work over the weekend to try another attempt to a pre-hearing TRO. Frustration over failing to stop the roundup prompted me to put pen in hand and write the above story. We tried so very hard to prevent any further deaths from occurring, lets hope that we do a great job in representing the horses on Wednesday, we should as our legal team is the greatest.

  23. You know RT – for all the BLM’s BS about not allowing humane observers because the are concerned about their safety and upsetting the horses – it is REALLY EASY to set up non-obtrusive webcams that allow live streaming, record and do EVERYTHING wirelessly and unobtrusively.

    Easy to set up a heavy duty camera on a tripod at a trap, connected to a wifi hotspot generated from a laptop (or a Droid x) and people onsite at the gather could watch live streaming without ever getting near the trap, OR if someone had a data satellite uplink – live streaming on the web……

    So – riddle me this……WHY HASN’T THIS BEEN DONE?

    • Yes, Kirk, many of us have been telling BLM for ages that they need to leave natural predators in all the HMAs. Cougars, bear, wolves, coyotes. That is nature’s way and as intended. It’s one thing to propose solid solutions like these but another to get BLM to actually listen and deviate from their other stated mission: kill all the predators possible to assist the livestock ranchers who pay less than 10% of the market rate for grazing rights and also want the nanny state to protect their stock from nature.

      For those that do not know, these predator killing programs eat up millions of our $$ and studies show that less than 10% of the calf kills are from wild predators — they are instead mostly from packs of feral dogs. But it’s convenient to get all the free services you can from the feds and apparently BLM feels responsible so they keep killing all our predators to appease the ranchers…. These people, BLM, have no clue about the natural order of things or how to determine real conditions so they can make fact/science based decision or how to maintain a natural balance. It’s all about special interests….

  28. This vet is good, ya, good. Did he weigh the heart? Did the Mare have an athletic heart and he didn’t know the difference between a pathological heart and a large muscular heart due to the mare being very athletic? Did he look at microscopic slides of the heart. Did the mare have excessive amount of fluid surrounding her right atrium? Did she have a blood clot in her lungs? How about the liver, how did that look? Just because you cut open the chest of a horse and find a heart doesn’t mean anything is wrong until after studies are done and from what I can see, no studies were done. The BLM cut open a chest – Big deal. It is still murder until proven otherwise.

    What the BLM didn’t want to say, is the Mare’s heart was strong and able to substain a pregnancy and birth (the most stress on a heart) without the need of a vet. The mare recovered from the birth. The mare was able to run long distances and fight a helicopter chasing her and her family.

    The Blm can not give the real reason this Mare died: Because the BLM choked her down. A necropsy in the field doesn’t mean a whole lot, just that she was opened.

What is the name of the chronic and progressive change noted? Since, the report did not want to commit itself to anything, it is reasonable to conclude it is a lie. In medical malpractice that is what would be concluded.The report can not be believed.

      • Yes, of course you can quote me. Will someone check at the BLM to see if there is any additional necropsy reports on the death of this horse. Did the Vet write a more elaborate report than the one published on the BLM website. For instance, in Calico, when the yearling was chased by helicopter and than collapsed in the field a necrosy was performed, but the vet gave a name to what he saw, I believe it was a aortic aneurysm. (I would need to go back and look exactly.)

        I was a medical legal record reviewer. In other words, I looked at legal medical cases and said yes, go ahead with the case, there is neglience, blah, blah,blah. Later on, I reviewed criminal medical legal records. In which I would review the records and say, I believe the defendant – they are not guilty because of blah, blah whatever it was. I have a lot of references if you should need or want them. I worked with attorneys all over the U.S. and in the U.K.

        If, this is all the vet wrote on this horse, I would have to say it is a lie. When there is an omission of facts, than it is a lie.

The horses are on the public lands for the public enjoyment and then the government removes them as soon as they realize the public is enjoying them. The hunters have more power right now. The ranchers have more power, The gas and oil companys have more power right now. The mineral and mining excavators have more power right now. The horse lovers with their camera’s seem to have almost no power. We need to fight so we can have equal consideration as all the rest and we should.

    In order to fight, We all must stay calm and realize that we will all fight and do everything in our power to keep the wild horses. However, making any kind of death threat against a human weakens our case. The BLM reads this and it is reported. We must always stay as professional as possible for the sake of the horses.

    I did a lot of medical legal review and our saying in and out court was, The first one to get angry is the loser. The saying held true in almost every case. The aggressor will try their best to provoke you, so you will lose. Stay calm, professional and do not show your weakness. The BLM wants to pounce and make us bleed. Don’t let them do it.

They WILL have to face their Maker, they WILL pay for their bloodlust & their crimes against God’s precious creatures! How can anyone stoop low enough to commit these horrific acts without any feelings of remorse or sorrow! They most certainly cannot have a soul ! But, R.T., you do have a gift, a way with words, you made it seem like we were the horses, the poor baby, the poor mother, oh, what panic & terror they felt!! I wish God would strike those people dead, even though I believe He is a loving, forgiving God, they are NOT one bit sorry for what they did, & continue to do! Our continued support & prayers go out to all the wild horses, & to all those who try to help them!
