Who do think our SRWHMG rescues will pick to win the Super Bowl?

Who do think our SRWHMG rescues will pick to win the Super Bowl?

Super Bowl 58, Kansas City Chiefs vs the San Francisco 49ers.

It is a SRWHMG tradition to see which team our rescues will pick as the winner. This year we picked Fynn & Mori to choose their favorite team, and it was unanimous, they both picked the 49ers.

But wait…… we also wanted to see what two of our rescued Alpines Roxy, and her foal Jahmez thought……. and together they picked the Chiefs. So, who do you think picked the right team? Fynn & Mori or Roxy & Jahmez? (see Mori’s video & Roxy & Jahmez in the comments)

We hope everyone has a great Superbowl Sunday and whichever team you are cheering for wins! If you want to follow what our Salt River rescues are doing every day, go to the SRWHMG-Wild Rescues facebook page.

Cheers, SRWHMG.

HERE’S WHAT WE WOULD NOT SEE IF WE DIDN’T MONITOR THEM THIS CLOSELY… 💔
This poor young momma, who lost her foal yesterday, is so obviously grieving.
If you don’t see it, your eyes may not be working. If you don’t feel it, your heart may not be alright.
These are sentient animals with deep feelings. They form bonds, they experience loss, and they grieve. And that is why we've worked so hard to make sure they are treated humanely.

After losing her baby, Jewell’s entire band traveled 4 miles from the river back to the Hills last night. This morning, they are here at our Hills feed station. (We kind of wish they had done that last week and we may have been able to help.)

Because we never saw Jewell’s baby alive, we can only guess at what happened. So we are taking the baby to Midwestern University for a necropsy. We are hoping that we can get some answers—and perhaps give everyone some closure.

We have, of course, seen this before, in our 20 years of record keeping and our 10 years of managing this herd. Thats how we know that Jewell will be okay. We usually see a mare lose weight after losing a foal, but after about two weeks, they typically begin to pick that weight back up.

Our hearts are with sweet Jewell today. 💔
But more than anything, we are just grateful that she is alive and ok.

BTW the BS from the talkers continues as they are desperately trying to credit people who do nothing but plagiarize our hard work and bash our group any chance they get. They found out what we were doing and rushed to post it for attention, and to divert information with their own phone #, that's definitely not to help. No, we don't own this herd and don't act like that of course, but we do own the work we do, and the work we have done for 20 years, and you would never know about any of it, if it wasn't for us. Wouldn't it be nice if some people could manage to have a little acknowledgement that these horses would not be here without us? Wouldn't it be nice if they stated, where they learned their information? Wishful thinking maybe, or maybe we have just had enough if it.

For Jewell. For her baby. And for every Salt River wild horse. ❤️
Thank you,
SRWHMG

We bring good news and bad news! 💔
Some of you asked us about posts you saw saying Jewell was missing, calling her “Moonstone.” Those posts did not come from SRWHMG, the official management group for the Salt River wild horses, and they had the wrong phone number posted for people to call and provide information.

However, it is true that we were searching for Jewell, because she was not with her band yesterday, and she was expected to give birth to a foal any day now.

The really good news is that Jewell is alive!! ❤️
The really bad news is that she lost a baby boy. We just found him deceased. 💔

We are currently investigating why he may have died and what possibly happened. But we are so glad Jewell is ok, and she will have the chance to have healthy offspring one day.

Further explanation:
We usually don't immediately announce when a horse is missing for several reasons:
1. We don't want to panic the public the second a horse goes missing, because it could very well be just fine.
2. It doesn't help to have well-meaning people searching, approaching horses, and potentially interfering with our systematic search.
3. When our field team is busy searching, we don't have time to answer a ton of questions.
4. Unfortunately, those posts also directed people to other phone numbers instead of our official hotline, which can prevent important information from reaching our search team.
5. We are banned from those pages so we cannot actually answer the questions they are asking!

We will always keep you informed, and we will always search for a horse until we have closure.
Here is the video of Jewell, safe with her mother Sapphire, at our feed station.

We are sure she is heartbroken. The baby appears to have been alive for a day or so, and we will investigate further to determine the cause of death.

Please follow the Salt River Wild Horse Management Group page for correct information and always check with us first. If you see people asking questions on other pages, please ask them to contact the management group.
Thank you so much for following us, the people who do the actual work.
Our hearts are with Jewell tonight. 🐴❤️

Thank you everyone!

HERE, where the wild things heal. ❤️

Here in Arizona. Here in the Tonto National Forest. Here, in the Salt River Horse Habitat—19,000 acres where we have preserved a little piece of the Wild West and protected the freedom of Salt River wild horses.

Here, wild horses provide something we all need a little more of: peace and healing. Thousands of people come to watch them live as they always have—moving freely, caring for their families, playing, resting, and simply being wild, without fear of helicopters.

And here is our newest Salt River wild horse, Thunder, discovering that when you’re losing your baby fur, nature provides the perfect scratching posts! ❤️

“Here, where the wild things heal.” What a perfect song to accompany this little moment.

Protecting and humanely managing wild horses matters not only ecologically and economically, but also for mental health. For veterans, for families, and for anyone carrying too much of the world on their shoulders.

Research has shown that being around wild horses can promote relaxation, reduce physiological stress, and support emotional regulation and mental well-being. Watching wild horses in their natural environment—their movement, social bonds, and freedom—can help quiet the mind and soothe the nervous system.

And maybe that is one of the most beautiful things about protecting wild horses: you don’t even have to be here to feel it.

You can find a little peace in simply knowing that, somewhere in Arizona, while the world rushes around us, wild horses are still happily roaming free, —just as they have for centuries. ❤️

Here, where the wild things heal.
SRWHMG.
