Long Term Wild Horse Management Plan.

October 29, 2019

In 2019 The Salt River Wild Horse Management Group  (SRWHMG) and our coalition partner the American Wild Horse Campaign (AWHC) have worked extensively to secure long term protection for the Salt River wild horses.  As 2019 comes to a close, we need to let you know that the fight for their protection is not over.

Partnership for Success  As the state contractor for humane management of the Salt River horses, the SRWHMG works closely with the two government agencies that have jurisdiction over the horses — the Forest Service and the Arizona Department of Agriculture (AZDA). As part of the daily management of the horses, we consistently advocate for the welfare and safety of the horses, as well as for the safety of the public. While we do not always agree, we are grateful for the cooperation of these two agencies in striving to achieve those goals; for without these partnerships humane management would not be possible.

A Threat to the Horses However despite the State law that protects them and the successful partnership for day-to-day management of the horses, a threat to their long-term well being comes from the Salt River Horse Collaborative, which was supposed to be a stakeholder process to develop a long term management plan for the Salt River horses.  The collaborative process was initiated by the Forest Service as part of the IGA (Inter Governmental Agreement) and consisted of a series of meetings organized and mediated by the agency, Concur inc.

This long term Salt River Horse management plan is referred to several times in the new DRAFT Land and Resource Management Plan which the Tonto National Forest has just released for comment. However you will not find details about the Horse management plan in  the Draft Forest Plan, just references to it. We will attempt to explain the details, as it is important that everyone understand the implications that the Draft Forest Plan could have for the Salt River wild horses as well as the recommendations from the Collaborative process.

Draft  Tonto Resource Management Plan The Tonto Resource Management Plan dictates how the Forest Service manages our public lands.  The draft plan is extremely extensive and it is open for public comment until March 12th 2020. (90 days total). There is no hurry to comment on it right away, especially not if you have not read it. Comments to the plan have to be specific to the plan, or they will be discarded. Comments stating that you want wild horses to be protected will have no use, as they are already protected by ARS 3-1491 and the Forest Service cooperates with that State Protection. We are formulating our comments that will be specific to the Draft Plan and we will post those on our website and social media pages soon.

The draft plan mentions the Salt River wild horses on the following pages, Page 63 (referencing long term Salt River Horse Management Plan), and page  242 through 246, again referencing that everything in the draft Plan depends on the long term management plan for the Salt River wild horses. The collaborative process is also mentioned in the draft plan on page 63. The long term Salt River Horse management plan has not been set in stone and although there is not a comment period for it, you an submit your comments to the Draft Plan, as well as to the Forest Service and to the AZDA when we post the email addresses.

SRWHMG and AWHC participated in these monthly collaborative meetings that took place between December 2018 and November 2019 to  defend the rights of the Salt River horses, the will of the public that wants them protected, and the state law that mandates their protection in their historic habitat along the lower Salt River. From the beginning, SRWHMG and AWHC had concerns about the unbalanced nature of the collaborative and the apparent bias of facilitators toward an outcome that would drastically reduce the Salt River horse population and its habitat in the Tonto National Forest.

Unfortunately, instead of a true stakeholder process, the Collaborative was stacked with anti-wild horse members, including conservation groups that wrongly believe that horses are non-native, and hunting, livestock and ranching interests (even though there are no grazing conflicts with the Salt River Horses!). Meanwhile, local businesses, and recreational users like kayakers, tubers and hikers and bikers — key stakeholders that support the horses as an essential part of the visitor experience  — were completely shut out of the process.

We ended the collaborative with the same concerns as we began. (Click here for our letter to the collaborative.)

Three Management Plans; Only One Horse Protection Plan

Herewith you can read the final documents from the Salt River Horse Collaborative meetings. They include  three options for a long term management plan for the Salt River wild horses. Click here for the original document.

Proposal 1, written by Robin Silver of the Center for Biological Diversity, was supported by the  anti-horse participants, which, not coincidentally, was the vast majority of the members of the collaborative. If implemented, the plan would remove over 75 percent of the Salt River horse herd and reduce their current habitat by 40 percent its current size.

Under plan 1:

  • 150 of the horses would be pushed over to Salt River Pima Maricopa Indian Community land. (which the SRPMIC does not agree with)
  • 200+ horses would be removed altogether.
  • A metal boundary fence along the last four miles of the lower Salt River would be constructed, where reservation lands border Forest Service land. This fence would be constructed on Forest Service land, trapping horses on the reservation side, and blocking the natural seasonal migration patterns of Salt River horses within their historic habitat.
  • The last 4 miles which they call the “Coon Bluff” area (we call the Phon D area)  of the Tonto Forest,  as well as the south side of Bush Highway would be fenced to exclude Salt River horses.
  • A wildlife overpass across Bush Highway would be allowed,  but only if it were funded entirely by private resources. Given the potential million-dollar price tag for an overpass, this restriction would likely prevent it from ever being constructed.

Proposal 3 is very similar to Proposal 1 and also excludes the last four miles of the lower Salt River from the Salt River horse habitat and supports the Forest Service Boundary fence along the river. It also includes removals and adoption of Salt River wild horses until the herd reaches the number of 180-240 Salt River wild horses. The only difference between Proposals 1 and 3 is that Proposal 3 does not exclude the south side of Bush Highway from their habitat. This proposal was written by Becky Standridge of Wild Horse and Burro Collaborative, she also runs the facebook page “Salt River wild horses” (unfortunately that is not us).

Proposal 2 was written by the Salt River Wild Horse Management Group and the American Wild Horse Campaign and was supported by Wild Horse Ranch Rescue.  Our proposal is the only horse protection plan, consistent with the law, it includes:

  • NO REMOVALS of Salt River wild horses, except if determined in five years that our PZP fertility control program has not reduced the herd size by decreasing birth rates and through natural attrition.
  • Reduction in the Salt River wild horse population to 200 horses, achieved over TEN years solely through fertility control and natural attrition.
  • NO reduction of their current and historic habitat, consistent with the state law overwhelmingly passed by the legislature. (The only exclusion is a burn area that would be fenced off for fire restoration.)
  • NO boundary river fence, which will have negative impacts on horses and visitor experience; the fence will be constructed along and across the river, forcing kayakers and tubers to pass through a gate! We oppose this fence particularly because of the Forest Service’s failure to disclose and seek public comment on the fence plan and it’s failure to adequately analyze the impacts of the fence to recreational users of the Forest and on the Salt River Horses.
  • Our proposal also includes a rule that would make the 50 ft distance enforceable as part of the law, to keep horses and people safe.
  • Our proposal also includes an overpass, built and paid for by MCDOT, so that wild horses have safe access to their historic habitat without accessing the road.

We feel this is a very reasonable proposal, that both AZDA and the Forest Service should be able to live with, especially with the extensive reduction in population numbers. This proposal will prove that wild horse management is possible without removing horses from their natural habitat.

What’s Next 

The three proposals will be presented to the AZDA for a final decision for a long term management plan. Meanwhile the Forest Service will  finalize the  Tonto National Forest plan after the 90 day comment period,  that also includes provisions that will impact the horses, based on this long term management plan.

What You Can Do

  • Write a comment that makes it clear that you support Proposal 2, the Humane Management Plan for the Salt River horses, as the only proposal consistent with state law and the wishes of Arizonans.
  • Oppose removals of Salt River horses and reductions to their habitat
  • Oppose the  boundary fence along 4 miles of the lower Salt river as detrimental to the horses and to recreational users of the Lower Salt River.
  • Support the SRWHMG’s fertility control program  and humane reduction of the population over ten years time without removals.
  • Ask for an overpass at the location of Coon Bluff at Flag Hill. This will be the perfect spot since the horses know it well.
  • Please keep these comments polite, no matter how passionate you feel, and also please thank the agencies for their cooperation in protecting the Salt River horses.
  • Send a monthly donation to the Salt River Wild Horse Management group to help pay for the humane management of these horses. Even a few dollars a month makes a difference. Without your support, we cannot provide the humane management that they deserve.

We will ask you to send your comment in to 4 different places of importance: The Draft Tonto Plan website, the AZDA, the Forest Service, the Governor’s office and the request for the overpass to MCDOT. Please start writing your comments while staying tuned on where to submit it. We will provide further advice on how to formulate your comments as well, and our comment to the Draft Tonto Plan will come out soon.  Hold your horses, as we have until March 12th to comment and it is important to do it right.

Once again, it’s going to take all of us speaking out and working together to #SaveSaltRiverHorses

As always, we count on your support. Thank you.

SRWHMG, managing wild horses humanely FOR the public and BY the public.

This guy, his name is Arco, but it should be Perseverance. He is missing one eye completely, and has a corneal ulcer/scar in the other one. He recovered from a grody looking abcess on his head just last month, and he recovered from a fractured shoulder a few years ago. Yet still, the bachelors are learning, that you better not treat him like he's handicapped!
Zoom in on his left eye and you'll see it is just pink skin in his eye socket. Wild horses are amazing. (No worries, this horse is on our permanent "watch" list. It means we monitor him and make sure he's OK all the time.) SRWHMG.

Thank you for Arco’s story. He has had his ‘challenges’ but seems to have overcome them nicely! 🙌🏻 Thanks for watching out for him and others.

Incredible survival instincts. Arco is amazing and I’m so thankful for the SRWHMG who watch over him ♥️

Animals are amazing with injuries, etc. Glad you are watching out for him as well. Yes, can definitely see he has an issue with that left eye.

All animals have NO PITY!! They are all strong in their own ways!! 😊❤️

Love to hear their stories! I have a BLM mustang and they are truly amazing animals❤️❤️

I think he deserves that name change!! Great photo!!

Spunky stallion and dedicated volunteers

Love looking at the picture/reading the posts thank you

Love these beauties! Great photography!

You all are AWESOME!

Can you somehow get him and treat the eye?

Incredible 💥🧡

Incredible photo!

chng.it/cZyhRyNp Please share this it’s to bring awareness for the wild horses were being killed in Arizona

which one is he?

Wendy Vazquez this group is very informative about it

He’s a very strong looking guy when you get to see him in action. I love him ❤️

Wild horses and their ability to “fight”through their injuries, pain and even blindness. Way to go Arco, show these youngsters whatcha got! Thank you SRWHMG for monitoring these incredible horses.

He has been on a helluva journey. Love the guy. Thanks Simone Netherlands , the AZDA, TNF and the many volunteers who watch after him and all the wild horses.

Arco is one tough dude!! He managed to overcome and adapt with the loss of his eye...and he's still wild and free.❤ SRWHMG, many thanks for keeping watch over these beautiful horses. 👏👏👏👏👏👏

He is lucky to be at Salt River where there are no roundups. If he was captured anywhere else, they would shoot him because of his blind eye and past injuries. Thank goodness for your organization! I wish all Mustangs were taken care of like you do! Stopping the roundups and implementing cooperative agreements between advocacy groups and the local governments as you do so successfully needs to be the goal of everyone. Herd management can be very humane and kind.

Will he be ok out there on his own??? Kinda having rough spot. Needs his eyes to keep up safe and sound ?♥️♥️♥️

Can’t imagine the paun he is in with that eye ulcer. Poor guy.

Will Arco be ok out there with only one eye? Will he lose the other eye as well? Thank you so much for looking out for these beautiful horses!!! I love the pictures of them and have always wanted to go out and see them. I'm now rethinking that. I don't want to get in their way during this breeding season.....or any time.

🐴Breeding season🐴
As the days are getting longer, wild horses are slowly coming into their natural breeding season. Every early spring, the bands start congregating and socializing more than usual, and the maturing bachelors are scoping out their chances to finding a mare of their own.

🐎🐎🐎Many mares are coming into estrus, including the new crop of 2019 fillies, and it is during estrus that they are accepting of new flirtations. While the breeding act of wild horses does the word "wild" justice, it is a consensual act, and usually the mare decides when and where this happens. A non-receptive mare who is not in estrus will kick the stallion and the stallions usually pick up on those hints immediately.

📖 Our research that spans 5 to 6 generations of Salt River wild horses, or 10 to 20 years on all horses (even longer in some cases), indicates that every year, breeding season starts at the exact same time, during the last week of February, and lasts well into April/May. Fertility control PZP does not change breeding season, because PZP does not influence the hormones of wild horses, and therefore does not change their behavior. They are simply having "safe sex".

🗓While stallions can be seen fighting for dominance and hierarchy all throughout the year, there is an obvious increase in battling activity during breeding season. You will see posturing, pawing, smelling each other, snorting, and loud squealing at the beginning of the confrontation, and sometimes these intimidation techniques will prevent the fight. But if no resolution is found quickly, then biting, kicking, rearing, lunging (at eachother), twirling and kneeling (to prevent hock biting) might ensue.

🩺The fights usually don't last long, because within a few minutes, a winner is established. The looser is the horse who retreats first, and sometimes the winner will chase the looser far away. Stallions can be seen with battle scars, but it is extremely rare to see it get more serious than superficial wounds. Stallions do not fight to kill, they are satisfied when the opponent gives in.

👉Horses may be extremely focused on the battle and can chase eachother at full speed through the forest, they may not see you.. While these natural behaviors are fascinating to watch, it is not safe to be near battling stallions or running horses, or in the middle of bands, because you might unwittingly be separating horses and changing their behavior.

⚠️Therefore please heed this safety warning: Stay 50 ft from the Salt River wild horses at all times, even if they come your way.

‼️Wild horses can be inherently dangerous, they are large and unpredictable, they move quickly and they are capable of violent behavior, even if they appear docile. By your presence in Salt River wild horse habitat you assume all risk and responsibility for damage, injury or sickness to you or your animals or to any property, or minors in your care, even if you exercise caution.

📸 All of the attached amazing and cool pictures were taken from a distance greater than 50 feet, with the use of zoom lenses and cropping as well.

Eric Hanson Thanks for sharing....what magnificent animals....I have been fortunate enough to see multiple sitings of wild horses and will never forget having that opportunity.Several times on horseback, in Eastern, Washington, and a few others, Nevada, near Palomino Valley, in the hills, once outside of Tucumcari, New Mexico. Thanks again for sharing....

Thank you for your info to people that do noot know about our wild ones. Hopefully they pay attention and help keep these animals wild and free. God Bless all ifvypu that working so hard to continue this. I wish I wa able to be with you.

Awesome information and guidelines as well. So interesting to learn about the wild ones. Thank you for all the work you do. We know it is done with love. ❤️❤️❤️

Thank you for sharing this great information! Respecting their space is vital. Their behavior can change in a heartbeat and we want everyone to enjoy seeing them while remaining safe. Love the photos! 💕🐴💕

Really great information. Please respect the wild horses space to keep everyone safe!

Great info, thank you. No matter how docile they look, things can change in a moment. Thanks for the reminder. Please keep distance and stay safe.

Beautiful pictures! I’ll keep my distance and watch from afar.

I wish every person who comes to the Salt River area to see these beautiful animals would read this and take it to heart. Please respect their wildness.

Some great photos!

Outstanding work you do with these majestic horses. How often does the PZP have to he administered? Is it given to both genders?

So interesting!!! They ate such magnificent animals!!

Great info.. we operate within the Ft McDowell Yavapai Nation and we come across these guys all the time, we give them plenty space and enjoy their beauty from afar. Here is a recent view of the band.

Please people heed these great explanations. It’s beautiful to observe, but if a human is hurt, then horses may well be removed.

You guys are amazing with what you do for these horses and trying to keep stupid people safe.

Thank you for sharing this information, wild life is truly amazing especially AZ wild horses ! You are a fantastic group of people that are caring for the horses and I’m so proud of your way handling the PZP. I wish other states could do the same thing, I’m waiting for the new Secr.of Interior I think she will be a good help for all land and all wildlife! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Beautiful photos and great commentary on their mating periods. Thank you!

Beautiful pictures of strong horses doing what nature intended. Even if it is kind of scary. I wish I could see these horses live but I live a long ways away from them. Stay safe everyone.

Great info! Amazing pictures!! Thank you for sharing 😊

I hope that everyone who reads this information pay attention and follow what you say. These are beautiful magnificent horses. These are wonderful pictures!! Thank you for sharing with us.

Great information. Hoping people who visit the area understand this info so the horses do not get blamed for injuries to the observers. 🐎💕

Beautiful pictures and great information. Thank you for sharing.

Such beautiful animals. Free they should be!🌵🤗🌴

What beautiful photos! You all are angels for all the time you put into these awesome animals!

Splendid photos and spectacular creatures - thank you!

HORSES 🐎 ARE SO BEAUTIFUL HAS ALL ANIMALS ARE LOVELY PHOTOS 📷 😍 ❤

Want to send a check instead of through facebook, would i still be able to receve one of these pieces of jewelry

A piece of jewelry is a reminder of helping these beautiful horses. Also, If someone sees you wearing it and comments on it, tell them where you got it and how you are helping. Send them our way!❤️

A very nice touch. Thank you so much ♥️

I love this bracelet and will wear it with pride. No gifts are necessary when I support this organization and the beautiful Animals they watch over but this was a very nice treat.

Thanks for the happy update. He is one very Lucky & Handsome Gentleman. I don't do e-transfers so I am sending a check from Canada.

❤️💕🐴 Valentine’s Day is past, but our Love for the horses, and their need, goes on! Would love to send all of you a lovely gift for our precious Salties!! ❤️💕🐴

Compliments you get when wearing one can help spread the story of how SRWHMG made history by stopping the planned wild horse roundup in Arizona along the Salt River!

Do not send me jewelry. Save for others.

Can we choose which jewelry?

Great values! Thank you for all you do !!!

very nice!

nice!
