We'll be brief because this news stands on its own!

 The Park Service has announced that the wild horses in Theodore Roosevelt National Park (TRNP) will be allowed to remain!

The good news is spreading! Photo Deb Lee Carson, Wild Lands Wild Horses.

 TRNP, located in North Dakota, is dedicated in honor of President Theodore "Teddy" Roosevelt and his leadership in conservation policy, and The Cloud Foundation has worked hard over the years to protect this herd through preservation efforts as well as adoption when needed (see below). BIG thanks to the hard work of advocacy groups across the nation - particularly our partners in North Dakota (Chasing Horses Wild Horse Advocates, North Dakota Badlands Horse, Wild Lands Wild Horses) - and YOU. This is a HUGE win.

 It's so easy to get used to the disappointment that accompanies this work. We have to remember that TOGETHER WE CAN MOVE MOUNTAINS AND MAKE MIRACLES! We DO make a difference! We can NEVER GIVE UP!

 THANK YOU for your partnership in speaking up for these magnificent ICONS of our American heritage! If you can take a moment to thank the Park Service, Senator John Hoeven, ND Gov. Doug Burgum, and other leaders who worked so hard to save this herd, it will not go unnoticed!

 Congratulations!!

Here’s to Teddy Roosevelt National Park favorites - Ollie Jr. and Ollie Jr. and Bayou. May the look forward to many years of freedom and friendship, roaming free on their home range.

In 2013, TCF rescued 36 TRNP horses. Board Member and TRNP "Mayor of Prairie Dog Town," Lisa Friday, was instrumental in funding their rescue from a public auction house and the kill buyers in attendance.
