herd roun’ the waterin’ trough from the Editor’s Desk... My Lord! We advocates continue to pour the heat on the Bureau of Land Management’s “mismanagement” of our wild horses on our public lands and have hit them hard with lawsuits that range from infringing on our civil rights, the wild-horses protection clauses in the Wild Free-Roaming Horses & Burros Act of 1971 from the massive global swell of people to stop the round-ups. And most recently, and again, the issue of “inhumane” treatment by the BLM has been included in the mix, finally. The BLM overseas the management of over 540,000 acres of public land and they can’t figure out how to manage a small group of horses on it? That’s like saying they can’t fight their way out of a paper bag. But are we shocked? Not really. Not when you consider the state of the union and the mess our political leaders have gotten us into economically. The Government has gone from it s original purpose of “government for the people” to “government for a few select, elite people”. Our public land is not ours. It belongs to huge corporations, both foreign and domestic, who drill, frak, mine and ranch the land for commercial gain leaving in its wake devastation and destruction of it and the water. Water rights are being snatched up for a fraction of what water will cost us. And, Yes, by Big AG, Corps, Poli’s and the super rich...oh well say goodbye to life as we know it...as if it weren’t tough enough. Google it and get informed. Who could survive in a dustbowl?

“8 Minutes”
Darcy Grizzle
...
For Darcy Grizzle awareness of the wild mustangs and burros started with Investigative Journalist George Knapp’s television expose “Stampede to Oblivion”. “I have always been in love with horses, especially wild ones. I used to ask every year for a horse for Christmas, sometimes I still do. I started riding horses in grade school and rode my bike over 8 miles every weekend to clean corrals and ride horses for free at Big Valley Riding Stables. Growing up in Las Vegas in the 60’s & 70’s you could take a drive up to Red Rock Canyon or Kyle Canyon Road to see the wild horses, but no more. They bring so much to a landscape; such beauty and spirit, which is what the west is all about. I was so angry watching Stampede to Oblivion that I decided right then I had to do something, no matter how small it was to help our Wild Horses & Burros.” Grizzle heard about a protest that was being organizing in front of Harry Reid’s downtown office and jumped on the band wagon. That is where she met Elyse Gardner, Craig Downer, Simone Netherlands and the President of AWHA, Garnet Pasquale. A few months later, she became a member of AWHA, then was elected one of its Directors. Grizzle believes the Wild Horses & Burros, as mandated by the 1971 Free Roaming Wild Horse & Burro Act, should be protected & not gathered unless in extreme emergencies. “The Wild Horses & Burros, congress passed laws to protect, have as much right if not more to roam this land freely, than we as humans do. They were here long before us. What other animals can be as strong and survive in the harshest of climates and terrains as these animals do. There should be more money spent on “range management” programs than paying helicopter pilots millions of dollars to gather the wild ones and break up their family bands forever, thus costing taxpayers millions of dollars to pay for their upkeep in long term holding in the Midwestern states.”
During her off hours from Project Disbursement Group, where she works as a disbursement agent, disbursing construction funding for banks, she started photographing the herd she has access to, as she wanted to see how much damage they actually do to the riparian areas & the forage, as the BLM & Ranchers state. She also did not believe the count of the BLM as to how many horses are on the range and that they fight to keep away other wildlife from water. “It is so hard to believe that a few thousand horses are blamed for the degradation of the land and water holes, when there are so many more thousands of cattle grazing these same ranges that the BLM states cannot support the horses & burros.� Grizzle started out with a small Nikon Coolpix S550 point & shoot and started taking pictures of the Wild Horses near Las Vegas. She started putting them on Redbubble, an International Photographer & Artist social network, and some of her images started selling as cards. Her husband and son purchased a new, more functional camera for her for Christmas, their contribution to her passion for the horses and other photography.
Grizzle is now the lead on the documentation of the Cold Creek Wild Horses, with help from members of AWHA.
One of her biggest sellers is a collage image “8 Minutes”, where she watched a band of wild horses from about a mile away coming to the water hole to drink and documented them in pictures. “From the minute I spotted them and started shooting, until the time they left, was a total of 8 minutes”. This was important proof in her mind that the horses do not hang around and damage the water holes as the BLM and the ranchers state. “I have been watching them for two years now and still don’t see where they are ruining anything or fighting off wildlife, though the area of focus has no cattle grazing and maybe that is the biggest difference.” Her image “Living in Harmony”, shows a wild stallion & three mule deer grazing together, not fighting each other off for forage or water. “All proceeds from the sale of any of my images on Redbubble, not just the Wild Horse images, goes to a rescue on a rotating basis, I don’t keep a dime of that money.”
Grizzle believes that one person can make a difference to help in whatever way they can. Whether it is from writing, calling and faxing our Congress and Senate, to actually getting out on the range, or just getting one person to listen to what is happening with the Wild Horse & Burro Program. “We all need to be able to see all living wildlife and live in harmony with them”, she says, “They all have special attributes to this earth. We should protect them, not destroy them and not take them for granted until they are in such dire straights that they are put on the endangered species list or have gone extinct. These Wild Horses & Burros represent our Freedom. Freedom earned on their backs. They should be treasured, honored and able to be viewed by all future generations. The scenery is just scenery without them.”

Just Enforce the Law, As Written By Joe Camp
The 1971 law as written outlines everything the wild horses and burros need. There's very little wrong with the law. It's just that the Bureau of Land Management is ignoring the law, actually breaking the law. Per the law, the BLM's powers Photo courtesy Darcy Grizzle 2011 to maintain and control the population of wild horses is severely restricted. As Federal Judge Rosemary M. Conyers stated in her ruling against the BLM in the Colorado Wild Horse and Burro Coalition case: "It is a federal crime to remove a wild free-roaming horse or burro from public lands, convert a wild free-roaming horse or burro to private use, or kill or harass a wild free-roaming horse or burro. Congress delegated to the Secretary of Agriculture and the Secretary of the Interior jurisdiction over all wild free-roaming horses and burros 'for the purpose of management and protection in accordance with the provisions of this chapter.' The Act further provides that “it is the policy of Congress that wild free-roaming horses and burros shall be protected from capture, branding, harassment, or death; and to accomplish this they are to be considered in the area where presently found, as an integral part of the natural system of the public lands. It further provides that “[t]he Secretary shall manage wild free-roaming horses and burros in a manner that is designed to achieve and maintain a thriving natural ecological balance on the public lands” and that “[all management activities shall be at the minimal feasible level . . . in order to protect the natural ecological balance of all wildlife species which inhabit such lands, particularly endangered wildlife species.”
The Judge goes on to say, "BLM’s authority to “manage” wild freeroaming horses and burros is expressly made subject to “the provisions of this chapter[,]” 16 U.S.C. § 1333(a), including the provision that “[it is the policy of Congress that wild free-roaming horses and burros shall be protected from capture . . . .” Id. § 1331. It would be anomalous to infer that by authorizing the custodian of the wild free-roaming horses and burros to “manage” them, Congress intended to permit the animals’ custodian to subvert the primary policy of the statute by capturing and removing from the wild the very animals that Congress sought to protect from being captured and removed from the wild." The BLM appealed the ruling and then abandoned the appeal when they realized that if they lost at the appellate level the ruling would become legal precedent that could be used against them over and over again in other court actions. The problem then is that lawyers - for reasons I cannot explain - have not been battling the BLM's violations of the law on the merits, often preferring to wage non-explicit emotional law and "poor horse" rhetoric. If all the litigating organizations would fight on the merits of the law it would, over time, give the BLM so many losses that they'd have no choice but to comply or give up their control (or better yet have it stripped away from them). Consider the following un-amended language of the 1971 law and what each means: "It is the policy of Congress that wild free-roaming horses and burros shall be protected from capture, branding, harassment, or death; and to accomplish this they are to be considered in the area where presently found, as an integral part of the natural system of the public lands." Defined as... " the amount of land necessary to sustain an existing herd or herds of wild free-roaming horses and burros, which does not exceed their known territorial limits, and which is devoted principally but not necessarily exclusively to their welfare…" With no legal basis, 95% of the land that by law was to be “devoted principally” to the welfare of the wild horses and burros was leased to for -profit cattle and sheep ranchers. To the tune of 150 cattle and sheep to one horse or burro. That is illegal. For-profit cattle outnumber wild horses and burros approximately 150 to 1 on land that by law is to be devoted principally to the wild horses and burros. go to next page
The land on which the horses and burros were to reside, according to the law, was to be “designed to achieve and maintain a thriving natural ecological balance.” Impossible with over a million cattle and sheep on the same land. Which is reason # 2 why the cattle and sheep are illegal. Cattle in no way help to achieve or belong in any natural ecological balance. Proper enforcement of the law would effect the ultimate solution to the problem while drastically reducing the budgets of both federal agencies charged with implementing the protection of wild horses and burros. Enforce the law and you’ll save the horses and cut costs. Enforcement of the law as written would give the horses and burros the land Congress intended them to have and there would be little need for “management” or management expenses beyond observation. And perhaps some serious research on how the horse is genetically designed to live, and survive, in the wild.

20 Answer
trueCOWBOYmagazine sits down with JAR, former entertainer, songwr JAR has worked with such Super Stars as Michael Jackson, Sly & the F grass, Sammy Davis Jr., Red Fox, Bill Cosby, Jackie "Moms" Mabley a on his 501c3, Project Arrowhead, horses & inner-city kids and, always, trueCOWBOYmag: Who is JAR? Jean Albert Renaud? JAR: I was born Albert Renaud White and I really didn’t like my name. So my mother gave me “Jean Albert Renaud”. I am Cherokee, Irish, African-American, on my mother’s side and French, Blackfoot and African-American on my father’s side. I was called the “little french boy” at school. I am a horseman, a musician and singer, a father, a son, a spiritual being. tCmag: Your mother, Dorothy May White, a modern day woman in a prejudiced world, tell us a about her? JAR: My mother was an amazing woman. She came from the South and I was conceived in 1942 in the backseat of an old car. Shortly after, my father left for the Navy. We were on our own so she decided to move back to Baltimore. She quickly realized that she had to find ways to support us and continue her education, go to college. She was big on education. She was an artist designer, dancer, singer, model. She modeled as the “Pochantas Girl” for American Beer. She worked three jobs, graduated college and became the first AfricanAmerican female DJ in Maryland. My mother was the most beautiful women spiritually and physically. She gave me the passion to be who I am. tCmag: When did you first come in contact with horses and where? JAR: My Great Grandfather put me on a mule when I was a small boy. Back then mules plowed and work your land with you and you rode horses to get around…I learned from my great grandfather about the way of the horse.
rs with JAR
riter and music producer for legendary Motown Records. Family Stone, Buddy Miles, The Four Tops, Lou Rawls, Teddy Penderand many more. And still, always the horseman, JAR now concentrates , music. tCmag: When some ask “what do you live in a barn” you can literally say “Yes”. You live in a barn with you horses, my personal dream, tell us about that arrangement? JAR: I hear my horses at night, I hear everything. Sometimes one of my horses lies down and might get stuck, I hear it. I wake up and help them…Its music. It smells like Mother Earth. I wake up to three horses looking at me, forest and trees, everything. I’m not the kind of guy to own horses as a statement, I work with them daily. tCmag: You also served this country in the military. What branch? JAR: The US Army. The draft made young minds know that they owed two years to their country and I knew that as well. Enlisting in the Army helped me and my family as it did so many other black and poor families, then and now. It put me on the same level as everyone else. And it gave me a chance to learn about cultures around the world. When I came out, I looked differently at this country with all the prejudices. The Army set me up for life… discipline, respect and brotherhood. I got to meet America. I did my first collaborative album supported by the US Army. It was quite an experience. tCmag: You’ve had quite a life. From the humble beginnings in the projects to the U.S. Army to Motown Royalty to Qatar Royalty to Project Arrowhead (501c3), your passion project. Can u describe that life path emotionally? JAR: It’s been quite a ride! When I first started in music, CBS Records in New York wanted to sign me. I wanted to be a crooner like Sam Cooke. The love songs stay around for years unlike like the music you hear today which contains violence and hate. All of my music is positive. My work with horses and especially endurance training has taken me to some extraordinary places. I was fortunate and became internationally known for both of my passions, music and horses.
JAR: Then one day, the Qatar Royal Family sent me eight Arabians to train for Endurance and Eventing. When they were flown back to Qatar I was too. I trained endurance racing to Duchess Sara Ferguson and she mentions me in her book. I went from nowhere to everywhere. The horse has carried me and demands the greatest respect than any other animal, I believe. My life has taken me from horses through music and back to the horses. tCmag: Your musical career took you away from horses for a number of years, how did you get back to them? JAR: It did physically but never spiritually. I was always connected to the horse. But I found myself caught up in the era of sex drugs and rock-n-roll like so many did at that time and, once again, the horse saved me. I was almost gone there for a minute. I made a lot of money very quickly. I drank too much. Every night on the road is a party. Sadly, most of my family died from alcoholism. I turned to horses, they saved my life. tCmag: What lead to Project Arrowhead, your program to help inner-city kids learn and respect horses while getting them out of the city and to the country? JAR: Project Arrowhead, a 501c3, is about the honest interaction between horses and inner city kids. When I had my son, Christian, and before I got the ranch, we lived in the city and I knew I had to take him out of that environment. My mother strongly agreed and sold her assets to help me buy my ranch‌Sunshine Acres in Parkton, Maryland also called Pretty Boy, Maryland. Christian’s friends began to come to the ranch after school and work with the horses. In return the horses taught them trust, patience and effort. It took time. Nothing happens overnight. . I was honored with the prestigious BMe Award in 2013 which has become a part of "My Brothers Keeper Program" initiated by President Barak Obama. tCmag: How are horses and inner city kids similar? JAR: I think the kid’s are locked in an environment of cement, noise and smells. The city survives on attitude so these kids learn to develop attitudes to survive. Horses are given similar hard luck when we discipline and train them.
Both are not allowed to be spiritually free. Kids are always being told what to do, constantly. But out here on my ranch, Sunshine Acres, their free spirit is allowed to flow…just like my horses’…there is no domination there is only communication. They are two species trying to survive in a world of control and dominance. tCmag: What do you see when you look at and observe a horse? JAR: The horse’s social and familial life is based on a structure similar to man. It is a family oriented animal. A horse is a soul mate…you don’t I m a country boy, I respect the land that fed me and I think when you look at the kind of riding I do you will see the horse and I are partners and having fun… this is what I do with these inner city kids and my horses dominate a soul mate…you strive for oneness…to stay together for life…like a marriage. Horses have carried us since civilization began. I observed the wild horse with some of my friends: Apaches, Navajos and learned the way of the horse. The alpha mare controls the herd as a family while the male protects the alpha mare and the herd. I’ve birthed every horse that I’ve had. I was always there for my horses. It’s an unspoken trust. tCmag: “Natural Horsemanship”, what does that mean to you? JAR: Observation of your horse. To observe and learn how they think, giving them time to compute and learning patience. I never use a bit and shoes or hit my horses. I rarely use a saddle. I m a musician and I ride and fit in to the horse’s beat and movement. tCmag: Do you own mustangs? JAR: I am proud to befriend and have with me, Lucy , the mustang from the BLM out of Nevada. She was from the Virginia Ranch BLM. Lucy is turning seven. go to page 43

The reader response to Buckle Bunny Baxter Clay has been overwhelming… so we thought we’d feature the lovely cowgirl again, by popular demand. Canada lost a diamond when our March Buckle Bunny, Baxter Clay migrated to America. Baxter fell in love with horses at the early age of three and its been non-stop crazy in love since. “My mom rode all the time in Canada and I caught “horse fever” from her before I could even walk” smiles Baxter. “My family and I traveled extensively, and I was fortunate to ride some great horses in some great countries like Bali and France. Traveling is one of my great passions, after horses. I ride wherever I travel too and have experienced equine “personalities” of all breeds.” “I love California, its natural beauty, scenic trails, beaches and night life”, she says. “I ride a huge, spirited Thoroughbred named “Tank”. Believe me, the name suits him. But, truly, he’s a big, sweet baby and I am learning a lot from him. I ride an off-beat mixture of both English and Western and enjoy trail riding with Tank embracing nature, not ribbons”, laughs Baxter. “I’ve been taught to ride a bit differently using my mind and not my body. I love the spiritual connection with Tank. And I know he does too, I can sense it.”
“Since I can remember I’ve always dreamed of owning a ranch and rescuing mustangs, any horse in danger, really”, she says pensively, “What is happening to our mighty mustangs is worse than a travesty, it’s a sin and one that we will be paying for, for a very long time if the roundups, penning and slaughter are not stopped now. My heart aches for these poor creatures. I become infuriated at the flagrant disregard of their freedom which is quickly being swept out from underneath them by the BLM. When I was asked to pose for tCmag and learned it’s mission to raise awareness of this issue, I jumped on it. I’ll do anything I can to help save this beautiful part of our living history.” “Most people expect someone or something completely different when they meet me. And they’re right, I am completely different”, laughs Baxter, “I am simple, yet complicated. There is much more to me than meets the eye.” Our March Buckle Bunny Baxter Clay, both eye-catching and breathtaking!

From page 29 tCmag: You also breed an unusual cross, the Sunshine Morwalkarab, a mix of Morgan, Tennessee Walker and Arabian. How did this come about? JAR: When I came back from a tour with the Jacksons years back, I felt I needed and wanted a horse. A local cowboy had some Quarter Horses. I began to ride his horses, bareback. I call it dancing…learning how your partner moves, their weight, their structure…and then I fit myself in. I am a musician and I ride to the rhythm of my horses. I met his little horse who was an Arabian Tennessee Walker Cross named SHE. This little mare had been abused and I just fell in love with this girl. SHE was the start of my breeding program. tCmag: You’ve written and recorded a couple of songs that are enjoying the top of the charts positions currently. “The Way You Look At Me” and “Horse”. How does that make u feel? JAR: It makes me feel great that people can connect and relate to my music. I am honored and blessed. My songs are about relationships and particularly with the horse. The horse saved me, again, in a song. tCmag: You’ve also been in some equine advocacy documentary films? Yes, I met James Anaquad Kleinert and was, yet again, fortunate to be in both his documentaries. The latest one, Horse Medicine, is in editing now with a release date later in 2014. tCmag: What's next for JAR? JAR: I really would like to travel and perform promoting endurance and event riding and horse culture. And music, of course. I want to raise the human conscience level of how we interact with each other and horses. I want to impart respect for Mother Earth, each other and animals. go to page 48

here in the wide world can man find
Nobility without pride, Friendship without envy Or Beauty without vanity? Here, where grace is laced with muscle, And Strength by gentleness confined. He serves without servility, He has fought without enmity. There is nothing so powerful, Nothing less violent; there is nothing So quick, nothing more patient. All of our past has been borne on his back. All our history is his industry, We are his heirs, he our inheritance. Ladies and Gentlemen – The Horse. ~ Ronald Duncan ~
From page 43
tCmag: What would you like people to understand about horses and our spiritual connection to them? JAR: Horses, for me, are the same thing as humanity. Humanity starts with our children. If we want to save humanity we have to work together. Same thing with horses, we have to work with them, learn from them and protect them from man. The moment we stop then Humanity is in a scary position. I came up knowing a horse and that’s why I have them and fight for them. The 21st century horsemen are our children. We have to spend more time caring, helping and loving them and each other. tCmag: How do you want to be remembered? JAR: I try to say to mankind, all of us want to come here and few want to live forever, but no one is here to stay. So, I hope I’ve earned the right to learn what all this life is about. Because there is more than we know. I hope to learn and earn the right to know that. tCmag: When the time comes, how do you want your tombstone to read? JAR: I am a free spirit that believes in the oneness of us all. We are all children of the Great Spirit and Mother Earth.

The Journey Continues
Still...RUNNING with The Horses Melody Perez Artist, Songwriter, Singer, Wild Horse Advocate
In the summer of 2010, I made my first trip to visit wild horse rangeland at the Sand Wash Basin in Colorado to experience first-hand the wild mustangs I had begun to paint earlier that spring using photos from photographer John Wagner. But painting from photos was not enough to quench my thirst for painting these iconic living legends. And there is when the quest began. Upon my first visit to the Sand Wash Basin the experience was overwhelming. I heard the thunder of wild hooves across the range, the smell of sage, the beauty as the wind in their manes flew like fire across the range, the open skies, such beauty… I was hooked. The experience of a flashy yearling’s approach while I sat on a rock near a watering hole was a moment never forgotten. The small band stood off as the colt and his dam approached, my heart felt like it was going to pounce out of my chest as this incredible black yearling with bright white stocking and blaze continued to come closer. You could feel the tension in the air between us, His sire, stallion, ‘Nomad’ stayed off in the distance while his dam followed close behind him.
This was the beginnings of a creative romance that has become my life’s journey. \ Within the year, the purchase of a vintage RV was made and the winter and early spring were spent outdoors painting the exterior with bands of wild horses and landscape on the exterior. Standing in snow with crisp temperatures was my studio for a season as I hurriedly worked to prepare the ‘Mustang Mansion’ for its first tour on the road across the West, sharing the beauty of our American Mustang with art and song. The last three plus years have been a wild ride of experiences from touring the West, participating in events from Texas to New Mexico and always sharing the beauty of our wild American Mustang through Fine Art and music. I have had the incredible opportunity to visit numerous wild horse rangelands and live among the wild mustangs for year on a ranch in northern New Mexico to the pinnacle of adopting our two wild mustangs with a surprise mustang colt foaled shortly after adopting our two

When you’re Wrong… By Jeff Hildebrandt
He stood there in the forest, working kinks out from the ride and loosened up the cinch strap on the pony by his side. He stood there in the forest surrounded by the trees alone with just his future plans and all his memories. He stood there in the forest; not lost, but all alone. He picked this place on purpose. No calls came on his phone, nobody interrupted, nobody criticized, nobody told him what to do. But then he realized there is one truth he can’t ignore. He’d learned it from his mom. Even if no woman hears it, what he says is prob’ly wrong.
