A new Los Angeles Times article reminds us that harming wolf families only harms the ecosystems we all depend on. As the piece says, “We’re trying to get rid of their ancestors: wolves.” Montana thrives when we choose coexistence and respect for this species.

In perhaps the worst of it, racehorses are kept locked –alone– in tiny 12×12 stalls for over 23 hrs a day, making a mockery of the industry claim that horses are “born to run, love to run,” a cruelty all the worse for being inflicted on naturally social, herd-animals like horses. ❌🏇🚫

The USDA does not track the number of rabbits slaughtered for food (unlike other farmed animals) but does inventory them in the Census. In 2022 there were nearly 200,000 rabbits in inventory. Slaughtered without any accountability.
