Wild Love Preserve partnerships offer broadened expanse through fusion to result in all-inclusive benefit and engagement - locally, regionally and nationally. We are appreciative and thrilled by all of our partnerships which serve to better address the whole by working together. We are a village, join us.

ABOVE, September 2021 - This 30-minute segment from the one-hour documentary "Off The Beaten Path: Wild Mustangs" that aired Sept 25, 2021, includes interviews with some of the stakeholders Andrea Maki and Wild Love Preserve have brought together and worked with over the last 11+ years in Idaho and nationally. Please note, while host Tony Naddaf's descriptive intros are in Arabic, all of the interviews are in English. We hope you will find this segment and the respective views of stakeholders helpful and of interest as it relates to the work of Wild Love Preserve and conflict resolution.

Stakeholder interviews include Andrea Maki, Wild Love Preserve Founder + President; Stone Gossard, Pearl Jam; Stephen Bauchman, Challis Creek Cattle Co; Kevin Lloyd, Idaho BLM, Challis - Wild Horse + Range Specialist; John W. Turner, Ph.D., Dept. of Physiology + Pharmacology at University of Toledo College of Medicine; Kim Frank, Executive Director, The Science and Conservation Center; and Steve Adams, Executive Director, Youth Employment Program in Salmon, Idaho.

Film footage by Andrea Maki features Challis-Idaho wild horses at Wild Love Preserve and on the range, remote darting with the fertility vaccine Native PZP, and the 2016 Science and Conservation Center training workshop taught by Kayla Grams with WLP stakeholders and Idaho BLM. Helicopter roundup footage is courtesy of Ginger Kathrens, founder of The Cloud Foundation.

Imperative to note, remotely darting wild horses does not harm them, albeit no one enjoys getting a shot in the rump. Watch the video to learn about the production and implementation of Native PZP in the field.

In October 2020, a film crew traveled to Challis, Idaho to film this wild horse documentary featuring Wild Love Preserve and the Challis wild horses on and off the range for Alhurra public television with the host Tony Naddaf.

Since 2004, Alhurra is a United States-based public Arabic-language satellite TV channel broadcasting news and current affairs programming to more than 16.5 million people in 22 countries in the Middle East and North Africa funded by the U.S. Congress through the U.S. Agency for Global Media.

Idaho's a.k.a. Belle and Wild Love Preserve have collaborated on this very special project to benefit the preservation of Idaho's wild horses with their new song "Mustangs." In February (2016) Boise based indie band, a.k.a. Belle, reached out with their desire to support the work of Wild Love Preserve. In turn, Andrea Maki was inspired to fuse song, lyric and visuals into a video with 2014/15 footage from the range and with WLP’s 130 rescued Challis, Idaho wild horses. Together we are mutually thrilled by all of the productive good energy and collaboration. The generous support from a.k.a. Belle comes in many forms, to include proceeds from their new single “Mustangs” benefiting Idaho wild horse preservation and Wild Love Preserve. Music For A Cause and Everyone Wins! Big Love, Big Thanks to a.k.a. Belle!

Bringing All Stakeholders Together To Work Collaboratively

TEAM WLP brings all stakeholders together to collaboratively address all facets of regional wild horse population management on home turf, on and off the range. Wild Love Preserve has garnered growing support from the region, ranchers, environmentalists, wild horse advocates, and BLM officials, as we transform what was seen as problematic by some stakeholders, into a proud, lasting asset for the community, region, and state.

Wild Love Preserve and The Science and Conservation Center Partner in 2012

"The focus of Wild Love Preserve's wild horse project in bringing all stakeholders together to work collaboratively with the Challis and Idaho BLM, is unique and imaginative and potentially opens the door to an entirely new paradigm for managing western wild horses. The model, if successful, may change a great deal and we here at the Science and Conservation Center are excited about partnering with WLP in this effort." - Jay F. Kirkpatrick, Ph.D, Director of The Science and Conservation Center

Wild Love Preserve and Salmon, Idaho's Youth Employment Program partnered in 2014 to offer an expanse of opportunities which serve to benefit Idaho wild places, youth and local communities in a current and lasting manner.

Y.E.P. is a non-profit organization created to foster an atmosphere of educational development and provide employment opportunities for young adults in local communities.
