I doubt all the unwanted TB horses currently on earth can be rescued to new lives. Too expensive. There are currently too many unwanted horses in other breeds, too (all the same fallout, legacy from the boom pyramid years of the 1980's to a good extent).

There are too many unwanted and uneuthanizable wild horses sitting out their lives in BLM holding pens. It's sad.

So if you can, you help one, you give a home to one at a time, because it makes a difference to that one, and one improved life matters.

The solution is obviously to breed alot less TB's than 35K per year.
