2010 Donkey Gelding/John

Brego, formerly called tag #9811, was part of our rescue effort to save the last 14 mustangs in a group of 31 mustangs that all ended up at a kill lot in Oklahoma. He is completely unhandled, has been wild his whole life, and in his mid teens. All of this means his chances of being rescued from the kill lot were less than favorable. 

​Brego was living wild in the Bullfrog Herd Management Area, located in the Mojave Desert of Nevada. He lost his freedom on September 29th, 2019 during the Bullfrog HMA gather when he was 9 years old. By February of 2023 he found himself trapped again, but this time he was inside of a kill pen.

We found pictures from that day, we can't imagine the fear and sadness these animals felt being captured and taken from their home.

​Brego's rescue was sponsored by Cresco Labs, and we are so grateful for their support and help with saving this life.
