Please, please continue sharing this petition!  It is crucial that we keep the momentum going!  We need to bring about change for the wild horses of Cumberland Island.

I just visited Cumberland Island again last week and made some interesting discoveries.  After watching the horses and doing some research, I realized that the horses' biggest need is not forage or population control - it's minerals!  Georgia is especially deficient in Selenium, which is a crucial mineral for pregnant and lactating mares.  As soon as possible, the Cumberland horses need to be taken mineral blocks so that they can gain weight.  I will keep you updated as I work with the NPS.

Thank you for signing and for your support!  The picture of the yearling is one I took last week.  Any name ideas for him?
