12/17/2008 - We are very proud to announce the up-coming release of our feature documentary film, Disappointment Valley. . . A Modern Day Western. Disappointment Valley examines the plight of America's wild horses and the rapidly deteriorating condition of our wild and beautiful Public Lands in the majestic, haunting American West. (Please see Disappointment Valley Synopsis for more information).
Disappointment Valley will be showing in Washington D.C. in early 2009 for our law makers and to help with new legislation being drafted for America's Wild Horses and Burros. It will also begin film festival release in the Spring of 2009.
12/15/2008 - Our associates here at The American Wild Horse would like to thank all of you for supporting our documentary film, Saving The American Wild Horse. Saving The American Wild Horse combined with the efforts of many other individuals and organizations has brought great attention to the current plight of America’s Wild Horses and Burros.
Recently Madeleine Pickens announced that she plans to adopt over 30,000 wild horses and burros in the Bureau of Land Management long term holding facilities. She is working with the BLM staff to adopt the horses, said Henri Bisson, the bureau’s deputy director, while the agency persuades Congress to shift $20 million in funding to feed and protect the horses now in captivity for another year. Ms Pickens plans to purchase large tracks of land in the American West and to return these profound, wild creatures to their natural place. We commend Ms Pickens for her generosity and support of the wild horses and burros.
We support Ms Pickens in her endeavor and hope that these large tracks of land she is purchasing will be open to the public. The American people want so much to connect with these profound, wild, majestic beings. We here at The American Wild Horse will continue to work towards urging the Bureau of Land Management to implement In The Wild management policies.
In addition, in early 2010
we will release the high definition film, Horse Medicine. Horse Medicine invites you to join us as we listen to the stories and legends shared by Wranglers, Indians, Cowboys, and other indigenous cultures from around the world, whose lives have been transformed by this amazing animal. (Please see Horse Medicine Synopsis for more information).

We invited the Humane Society of the United States (HSUS) to co-host the event that we organized, and they joined us. Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid stopped in at the screening and has personally requested a copy of the film. HSUS continues to work on Capitol Hill responding to the positive responses we received and connecting with prospective co-sponsors for related legislation.
