“Here at Wild Horse Freedom Federation our primary concerns lie with the government’s full blown assault against our free roaming wild horse and burros on public lands and trust me, that in itself is a full time job. But with that being said we are not blind to the similar plights of other fellow passengers on Spaceship Earth such as whales, dolphins, wolves, coyotes and in the case of this information Bison.
Right now, there is massive concern over what is happening to the wild Bison in Yellowstone and the information below speaks to this issue. We share this story, not to dilute our work with the wild equines but to further demonstrate the abject stupidity of government be it local, state or federal. It is a shame that the court system does not allow us the capability to sue such entities for the simple cause of just being “STUPID”. If that were possible the courts would be clogged beyond imagination and I would be first in line with case in hand. Keep the faith.” ~ R.T.

“Okay, we abandon intelligence and advocacy for total hilarity, today. Before you click the video, below, be sure you are sitting down and swallow that mouthful of coffee or otherwise your going to have a mess on your hands, wherever you may be. Now tell me that this little equine, once he discovered he had a surrogate voice, didn’t have a lot to say. So much so that he decided that would take a stroll and tell his story to others. (Our neighbor’s horses would freak if we gave my rubber chicken to one of our guys)
As I type there is a rubber chicken on display above my desk; I know not to touch it as the little border collie sleeping at my feet would come uncorked along with my other buddy, Tank the 25lb cat and the morning would quickly deteriorate into a flurry of fur, claws and paws. So instead, I quietly submit this video to you and wish all of you a wonderful, relaxing and uneventful Feel Good Sunday. Keep the faith, my friends.” ~ R.T.
