35 More Wild Horses Killed; Interior And Ford Team To Save 52

Author: John Heilprin, Associated Press Source: Tampa Bay Online (FL)

Title: 35 MORE WILD HORSES KILLED AS INTERIOR AND FORD TEAM TO SAVE 52
 The Interior Department abruptly halted delivery of mustangs to buyers while it investigates the slaughter of 41 wild horses in the West this month.
By enlisting last-minute financial help Monday from Ford Motor Co. - makers of the Mustang sports car - the agency saved the lives of 52 other mustangs.
The latest horses killed came from a broker who obtained them from the Rosebud Sioux Tribe of South Dakota. The tribe traded 87 of the 105 aging horses it bought from the government for younger ones. Interior officials said they would review whether a federal contract had been violated. Tribal officials were unavailable for comment.

When this story first happened ..I was happy to see the horses go to a Indian group that said they thought the horse was a sacred thing..And that they can't wait to see the horses on the ansysteral land..And that the Horses will bring back their children to learn about the horse and there Heritage..And see the wild horses run again!! And that they will bring luck to them and good fortune!!....
Baa !!!Now I know!!!..... That they have evil hearts, as the white man..All They see is money!!!! Yeah!! ..Thats right!! The free gift horses.. Bring them BLOOD money..They are just as guilty as the horse trader..who sold them to slaughter..Some good fortune!!! Yeah... Money in your Bloody hands and evil hearts..Death for the innocent trusting free horse..
SHAME ON YOU "FAST HORSE"!!! I hope you have only bad fortune..May the Spirit of the Wild Horses stomp and Crap all over you..Not the savior we thought..
Thank you For the Ford Car Company.. Mustang..Who stepped in to save the ones left.. Wow, a big Corperation with Big Hearts??? OOh, I have lost faith I humans..But we shall see how this story still folds out...Praying for better..

What a strange moment in history, to find a huge corporation like Ford with a larger heart and higher appreciation for wild things and symbolism than the ancestors of aboriginals. Thank god this immoral practice was exposed before it turned into some sort of sickening cottage industry. And immense thanks and gratitude to the Interior Department for being on the ball and getting involved.
