Dozens of Wild Horses Shot and Left to Die in Desert Deserve Justice

Target: Grand County Sheriff Jamison Wiggins
Goal: Capture the person(s) responsible for slaughtering wild horses in the desert.

Out in the desert near Moab, Utah, people have been finding dozens of dead wild horses with bullet holes in their sculls. According to two brothers who have been finding many of the horses, a typical day is like – “We find two down here. Three right here, four up there. Five, six, seven, eight, nine…”

“Oh my goodness that’s a lot of horses,” his brother exclaims. “Someone went to town.”

Who that “someone” is, authorities do not know. What they do know, however, is that someone is prowling the desert, hunting wild horses with a gun.

Some people have speculated that the killer is a local cattle rancher. Historically, many cattle ranchers have run into conflicts with wild horses, since the horses graze the same grasses that cows eat. This has lead to many ranchers advocating for the extermination of wild horse herds.

PETITION LETTER:

Dear Sheriff Wiggins,

In the desert of Grand County, Utah, dozens of wild horses have been turning up dead with bullet holes in their skulls. According to two brothers who have been finding many of the horses, there are dozens of these poor animals lying out in the desert.

There is no indication that your office has identified a suspect, nor have you released details on the status of the investigation. We sincerely hope that you are working hard to build a case.

Some people have speculated that the killer is a local cattle rancher. Historically, many cattle ranchers have run into conflicts with wild horses, since the horses graze the same grasses that cows eat. This has lead to many ranchers advocating for the extermination of wild horse herds.

Whoever the killer is, please dedicate sufficient resources to find and arrest the person or persons responsible for these heinous killings.

Sincerely,
[Your Name Here]

    Cattle ranchers are already benefitting undeservedly by grazing their hers on government land. These greedy mutants MUST BE INVESTIGATED AND PROSECUTED FOR THEIR CRIMES!!!!

    • Gilda Provenzano says:

      NOTHING will happen to these vermin.

    • janet Needler says:

      YES –ungrateful for the citizens that allow ranchers to USE our land –Bundy’s already fenced off some of the public’s land and then shot at anyone that tried to tell them they couldn’t –and the older Bundy was not even given a ticket !!

  2. Gerald George Ryan says:

    WHEN WILL CONGRESS STOP PANDERING TO RICH CATTLEDLMEN???? NOT UNTIL WE, THE VOTERS, CAN EXPOSE THE BRIBES THEIR CAMPAIGNS RECEIVE FROM THE CATTLEMEN!!!!

  3. Jeanne C Bradbury says:

    WANT TO STOP GREEDY, CORRUPT, MURDEROUS CATTLEMEN??? GO VEGAN!!

  4. Michelle taylor says:

    These evil cretin horse killers most definitely must have the death penalty implemented. A slow and agonizing death is required!

  5. Myrna Burdick says:

    If someone wants to raise cattle, they need to do it on their own
    property. Public land is not theirs and the piddling amount they
    pay the federal gvt. because they are too cheap to feed that which is making them wealthy.

    Those horses have more right to that forage than stupid cows.

    Think of any other job holder who decides to take over the supplies of a fellow worker. Or the rancher who decides to let his cattle into a neighbor farmer’s wheat field, the mayor’s palatial flower garden. I am sure you get my point but not the
    rancher.
    Start writing to your Senators, Representatives and demand all
    cattle off of public lands.

    Find monsters and punish severely

  7. Davide Alioto says:

    yuck, I wouldn’t want to be classified as human

  8. Davide Alioto says:

    they should come from another world and treat us as we treat animals. I think it’s a fair punishment

  9. William Turner says:

    I HOPE SOMEONE FINDS HIM AND SHOOTS HIM

  10. Sandra Weber says:

    I’ve been an advocate for wild horses and burros for many years. Ranchers have always been given preferential treatment and our government continues to allow the never ending roundups. If they really want to find the horse killers they would offer a reward, a big reward but I’m sure that won’t happen. There will come a day when there will be no horses or burros roaming the wilderness, only livestock.

  11. How about putting bullet holes in THEIR heads!!! I hate people.

  12. Sabrina Favero says:

    Hope a wild horse will run over this fucking scumbag soon!!!!

  13. It’s a tragedy that this Petition will not make a bit of difference because, as another commenter pointed out, “Ranchers have always been given preferential treatment and our government continues to allow the never-ending roundups.” In fifty years, there will be no more wildlife roaming this planet because the powers that be (past and present) do not care about preserving the Animal Kingdom. The almighty dollar will always prevail…

  14. Come on people. What do you expect from POS who raise animals to kill and go on ppl’s dinner plates? They don’t really care about animals in general so yeah…they’ll shoot these horses if they feel their cattle’s grazing is jeopardized. They make their money and fortune in some cases off the backs of enslaved beasts.

  15. these worthless fucking humans that did that should have a bullet between there fucking eyes

  16. Mike Simpson says:

    For sure Michelle !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  17. Lori Stearns says:

    The lack of government on this one really pisses me off the most. Some of the lineage on these wild horses has been on these grounds longer than these human beings have been in their entirety. With that said, I think the horses should get special treatment, and the poachers and shooters can be hung by the next tree for an example to leave the horses alone.

  18. Maria Lavorato says:

    RIP innocent horses …I know you are in heaven now….
    YOU DESPICABLE HUMANS NEED TO GET GUNNED DOWN!. These beautiful horses have every right to graze….you SOBs.

    I PRAY WHOEVER DID THIS PAYS WITH A BULLET TO THEIR BRAIN SOONER THAN LATER!

    Get these horses their justice…find all the perpetrators and charge them to the maximum…
    The guilty need to be held accountable whoever they are! THIS CANNOT BE COVERED UP AND FORGOTTEN!
    DON’T EAT ANIMALS!

  19. STOP shooting wild animals and domestic livestock, horses and cattle in the Southwest !!! The cattle ranchers are actually AGAINST shooting cows that go feral; horses are considered livestock: work WORK to change it/this !

  20. Bernhard Yolanda says:

    FUCKING BAD SCUM.
    the animal torturers and animal killers are the epitome of EVIL.
    WORSE THAN VILE OF THE EARTH BASTARDS!!

    my heart is bleeding
    how many of these poor angels still have to suffer and die because of piles of rubbish like these “people”.
