Craig Downer is an American ecologist, environmentalist, and activist who has extensively studied and championed the welfare of the wild horse- and burro-citizens of the Western United States as well as the mountain tapir-people of the northern Andes in South America. “Seeing the naturally living horses were very inspiring to me. Their nature is very beneficent.” “I did ‘Wild Horses: Living Symbols of Freedom,’ and later, I did the book ‘The Wild Horse Conspiracy.’ After I came back to the United States, that’s when I formed the Andean Tapir Fund. So I can work here for fending and restoring our wonderful wild horses and burros in America, and to truly represent the Wild Free-Roaming Horses and Burros Act. It was unanimously passed in 1971. I knew and worked with legendary Wild Horse Annie who spearheaded the movement. Her name was Velma Bronn Johnston, and she was just a real inspiration, very dedicated, and really cared.”Today, wild horse-, wolf-, and grizzly bear-people in the United States are facing severe persecution and the threat of extinction. One of the main reasons for this is competition with industrial animal-people livestock operations, which clear the land, grow hay and grass, and raise animal-people for consumption, pushing and murdering the wild animal-citizens out of their natural habitats. “We have to speak for the horses and burros, and their right to live free and to occupy those legal habitats they have throughout the West on the BLM (Bureau of Land Management) and the (U.S.) Forest Service lands.” “And there’s ways of accomplishing this, not by manhandling them, but letting them fill their niche within their legal habitats. And we can do this through a beautiful, reserved design, which is tailored to each unique ecosystem.”
