41. Update on Checkerboard Litigation: Interview with Suzanne Roy and Joanna Grossman
Listen now
Description
The Checkerboard Litigation raises concerns about the BLM’s adherence to the Wild Free-Roaming Horses and Burros Act. The BLM is prioritizing livestock interests over the protection of wild horses due to pressure from grazing associations. The roundup and subsequent captivity of these horses frequently result in inadequate living conditions, overcrowding, and increased risk of disease, which has led to fears of euthanasia and slaughter.   Tune in to discover the vital role of public advocacy and how you can support this important legal effort. Plaintiffs in the lawsuit, Suzanne Roy and Joanna Grossman, join me to discuss this cause and urge everyone to reach out to lawmakers and op-eds alike to spread awareness and help stop the inhumane treatment and eradication of wild horses.   Get full show notes and more information here: https://www.wildhoofbeats.com/41
