Dear Ginger, I can’t tell you what your show on clouds family meant to me when I saw it on pbs. I have been following the films and have been reading about you. I have been dreaming about the film and the arrowhead mountains with the wild horses. AS a child my dreams were always horses and I continue to have and arab at this time but to see those beautiful horses makes me want to be there and experience that . THank you I will continue to investigate info on you and you’re horses. Thank YOu. jill

Hello Ginger,
I was wondering if a follow up on Cloud’s herd will be done. I watched your episode last night on KCET. My horse pals and I on Facebook want to know. I am a horse owner and I am concerned deeply about the future of ALL of our wild horses and the lands left to them by the people that are being taken away. What can we do to help? Thanks so much, Jenny Mehrtens, Black Moon Ranch

This is an outrage, who do we (humans) think we are! Leave these horses alone, they harm no one/ no thing! We must free Cloud and his Band, and the others!!!

Kellie and Cam, go to thecloudfoundation.org. Write or call to President and Mrs, Obama, Vice President Biden, DOI Ken Salazar, BLM Robert Abbey and your own Sentaors and Congressmen to support S 1579, stop the roundups, return all elder horses immediately to their homes. It doesn’t not matter your age, or even if you live in this country – make your outrage known. All the phone numbers, addresses, e-mail addresses, fax numbers are there too. Contact them every day if you can – over and over. And watch the new Cloud program this Sunday, October 25 on your local PBS network.

Please, tell me what to do. I have had a fire burning for these horses ever since I can remember. I fear that a few of my ancestors may have been partially responsible for the torture of these majestic beings and I will never rest until I have done my part to save them. I truly believe these horses are one of the few symbols of freedom we have left. May God be with us!

God bless you Ginger Kathrens, the Cloud Foundation Team, and all others in Wyoming this very sad day. No God Bless yous for any of the BLM and their contractors anywere, anytime – not at this time – not until they stand up. A day by day account of the roundups occuring right now are on thecloudfoundation.org. According to the Foundation, BLM rep Don Glenn, in a tapped interview has indicated that, contrary to previouse BLM promises that all horses would be adopted, they have changed their minds and some will be sold (Burns Act – SLAUGHTER). Well, I don’t think they changed their minds, I think they just stabbed Ms Kathrens in the back once again. Please go the Foundation web site – take Action, please help save these horses – change thier minds. Call, write, e-mail all officials listed. Perhaps another day will be happier – a day of reckoning if we just all keep working towards the goal – Freedom.

Phil Tayler –
you can do something to help right now –

The BLM is planning a roundup th end of this month – we must all write, e-mail or call the politicians – it is our only hope. Tell all your friends too – I read on one gov web that each e-mail to them is repesentative of 5 public opinions –

so go ahead, blast blm, you know you want to.

We all must work to stop this round up or cloud may not be free on the range when the 3rd episode aires this October. This is URGENT.

I cannot face another round-up- just last month, on my birthday no less, BLM reounded up a whole heard in Colorado – the pictures are on The Cloud Foundation web page – warning, they will break your heart.

Why are they doing these reoundups when they have said they can’t care for the horse alredy in captivity? Something fishy going on here!

BLM…………..BLM!! Well back in the 1970’s I met Wild Horse Annie and was privy to her observations of BLM antics in Nevada. I was writing for a few publications back then. She had photographed BLM employees rounding up Mustangs, loading them into trailers and hauling them to slaughter houses in California. She then reported the incidents, showing proof in the photographs. Nothing was ever done to those employees. They did stop those secretive round ups though.

Your cause is great. Keep up the good work. I live in Montana and if you ever need help just get in touch with me.

Thank you so much for this amazing educational program. Wild horses are so important to our history and culture and the BLM has done a horrible job of managing them, as they have other wild life and wild areas in this country. One can only hope that we will come to a more enlightened frame of mind in the 21st Century and the last 100 years will look like the dark ages in wild life management. I so admire people like yourself who dedicate their lives to trying to save life and educate the rest of us.

Thanks so much for your dedication and letting us know what we can do to help the wild horses.
