The history of WFLF Mustang Rescue Mission -
In early 2014 the Wild for Life Foundation (WFLF) received a desperate plea of life and death urgency from the founder a New Mexico (NM) nonprofit organization (NPO) for emergency rescue assistance. Reportedly their entire herd of horses was stranded in deserted feedlots without access to water or hay. Without the resources to house, feed and care for them, the NM NPO, was on the verge of losing its horses’ lives to unspeakable gruesome slaughter.
The WFLF Mustang Rescue Mission (WFLF MMRM) was launched by the Wild For Life Foundation as crisis assistance to save the at risk horses lives and as a means for providing emergency aid and helping to facilitate their relocation and placement.
In April of 2014, WFLF sent emergency financial aid for the direct care, feeding, transport and placement of these horses. WFLF additionally facilitated the placement of the majority of these horses into new 3rd third party homes.
The surrendering owner, solicited aid from the Wild For Life Foundation for the rescue and take of approximately 50 horses whose lives were said to be in imminent danger.
WFLF costs to care and house the surrendered horses whom began arriving to WFLF facilities in August 2014, has well exceeded $150,000.
In mid 2015, WFLF officially concluded this rescue mission and transferred approximately thirty three of the horses for residency into a 3rd party sanctuary in Northern California.
