R.T. Fitch’s life has been anything but ordinary. Straight out of high school, he joined the U.S. Air Force Band during the Vietnam era, and while stationed in Hawaii, he spent weekends at Sea Life Park training penguins, sea lions, and whales. His path through life has taken many unexpected turns—including more than a few lessons in love—until meeting his wife, Terry, brought a lasting partnership and a shared passion for animals. Over the course of his adult career, R.T. worked internationally in multiple countries, gaining a broad, global perspective that colors both his worldview and his writing. Now rooted in Texas, he and Terry live on a small farm surrounded by four-legged companions with paws, claws, and hooves. Together, they have devoted years to equine rescue and wild horse protection. An ordained volunteer chaplain and professional Santa Claus for a local historical society—with Terry by his side as Mrs. Claus—R.T. brings warmth, wisdom, and joy to every season. His work reflects a life of service, wonder, and connection to both people and animals. He is the author of Straight from the Horse’s Heart, a moving collection of true rescue stories and spiritual reflections, and Fangs of Light, a supernatural tale steeped in symbolic and metaphorical storytelling. The first in a planned trilogy, Fangs of Light blends myth and mystery to explore themes of identity, redemption, and the power of empathy—offering readers not only suspense and intrigue but a deeper look at the light and shadow within us all.

Thank you RT. Happy Mother’s Day to the four legged mothers who labor so hard and long to bring us these beautiful foals. They deserve accolades too. Since our house burnt down, we are living about three quarters of a mile from our horses right now; and I miss seeing them when I get up in the morning and before I go to bed at night. God bless you and Terry. I hate it when I am not close to my horses.

Happy Mother’s Day to all! Even if you don’t have children, remember “It takes a village” to create caring and responsible adults. Also remember the impact Mothers Against Drunk Driving had on that issue. Never underestimate the strength and dedication of moms on the prod!

To all the world, a Happy Mother’s Day……everyone and every living thing has a piece of “Mom” in them.
The sooner women take control of state houses and Congress in the US, heck even the world….the better all life will be. Yes, not every female is a good choice, but many are…if we can get them to run.
Good stuff, once again Team Fitch.
Thank you.

Some days, human moms probably could do with eight arms like the pygmy octopus. After laying its 150 large eggs, Ma octopus will gently caress them with her suckers to prevent algae and bacteria from growing. She lightly squirts them with streams of water to keep the eggs oxygenated. When ready to hatch, the mother’s gentle caresses become more violent to help the baby octopus escape from the egg case. Most octopus mothers will not eat after laying eggs and die soon after they hatch. For comparison, human mothers have been known to hit the deli straight after birth.

We just found out that NBC’s Today Show will air its long awaited segment,”Wild but not Free,” during the 7:30 a.m. half hour of the program. Please note that the Today Show airs from 7 a.m. to 9 a.m. in all U.S time zones. Be sure to tune in. (Since this is live TV, the segment could always be bumped by breaking news, but hopefully it will finally air!)
The piece will include an interview with music legend Carole King, who graciously agreed to speak to NBC on behalf of America’s wild horses at the request of AWHPC, as well as footage taken by AWHPC and other advocates of the Bureau of Land Management’s (BLM’s) brutal treatment of wild horses at multiple roundups.
We are hopeful that NBC’s coverage of this issue will put a major spotlight on the plight of America’s wild horses and burros and lead to much needed reform of the BLM’s program. This couldn’t come at a more important time with 50,717 wild horses and burros in government warehousing — an all time high — and our “Step In, Sally” letter gaining momentum across America and in the halls of Congress.
Please take a few moments and watch at 7:30 am tomorrow. Then stay tuned for updates from us on how you can help make the most of this opportunity for wild horses and burros
