These wild horses belong to all, and they have been free fir all their lives.

The horses have rights, do not belong to the landowner or anyone else for that matter, have roamed this area freely for decades, are social animals belonging in their herd & should remain a viable population group

Horses should be set free. They are wild and it is cruel to keep them fenced up

(Cape Town , 2018-11-09)

These horses are wild and were born free. No one has the right to put them behind barbed wire fences and imprison them. For all these years theu have been free to roam around. Theu must be set free. Theu don't belong to anyone

If you have ever watched a wild horse, then you will know that this is wrong on every level.

Craig Saunders needs to do the right thing, let them go. If you are reading this, Craig; they are not yours to keep. Please let them be free, please.

The Rooisand horses is a sign of freedom and hope in a changing landscape - and should be a free herd!!

(Johannesburg, 2018-11-09)

#224

I love these horses and they must roam free as they did for a hundred years

(Fisherhaven, 2018-11-09)

#230

These are a feral horses which may roam OUTSIDE the fence. Why was there no aerial monitoring done during this very expensive installation to mitigate the risk of just this sort of thing? Time to redress that now.

(Hermanus, 2018-11-09)

#231

I love our wild horses and it's heartbreaking to see others being fenced in. Set them free! They are not yours to keep - they belong to themselves!

(Hermanus, 2018-11-09)

#236

These are wild horses and do not belong to this particular farmer .. he is stealing!! Let them free!!

(Cape Town, 2018-11-09)

#237

These horses have been free for forever. It's not right or fair to restrict their movement.The landowner is, in effect, stealing them from the public.

(Stanford, 2018-11-09)

#240

Please free the horses

(Fisherhaven, 2018-11-09)

#241

I’ve seen this herd which have adapted to their habitat. They were there first! It’s tragic to divide them and contain them.

(Cape Town, 2018-11-09)

#242

To have wild horses just like Namibia. They have been there so long and should stay as part of our heritage.

(Kommetjie , 2018-11-09)

#244

These are wild horses and they need to be free

(Centurion , 2018-11-09)

#250

No-one has the right to displace any wild animal from its natural inherited habitat.

(Stanford, 2018-11-09)

#252

They should be free and I live in Fishershaven

(Fishershaven , 2018-11-09)

#253

They are wild and belong to the people and the area not to some greedy, selfish individual. Let them roam free like they have always done.

(Bettys bay , 2018-11-09)

#256

I'm signing because I believe it is unjust and cruel to keep these horses in captivity

(Fisherhaven, 2018-11-09)

#257

I believe they should be left where they have always been. I used to live on Fisherhaven and felt so blessed to have thise majestic horses close by.

(Hereford, 2018-11-09)

#258

I'm signing because I strongly believe the Rooisand horses should be free.

(Fisherhaven, 2018-11-09)

#259

These are WILD horses and these people are wrong to fence them and separate them from their herd. These horses need to be with their herd. Free them, now!!!

(Hermanus, 2018-11-09)

#260

I love the wild horses and I don't think it's right that the farmer can lay claim to them.

(Hermanus , 2018-11-09)

#265

Because they must be let free.

(Stellenbosch , 2018-11-09)

#266

The horses deserve to be free

(Johannesburg, 2018-11-09)

#267

All animals need to be free to live their lives in the environment into which they are born.... without "do gooders" doing their thinking for them. They are far smarter than you realize. Please free them!!! Don't fence them in.

(Hermanus, 2018-11-09)

#268

The horses should be allowed to roam free and be with their families!!

(Cape Town, 2018-11-09)

#270

I live visit the area allot. And feel that is wrong

(Kleinmond, 2018-11-09)

#271

I'm signing because they deserve to have their freedom and to let the tourist can watch them without having to go into an encloser but to see them in their own free environment without humans interfering with keeping them inclosed and separated from their friends on the other side of the fence whom is free and they are searching for each other every day and seeing them separated is not fair .

(Kleinmond, 2018-11-09)

#272

Wild horses are so scarce, they should be protected and allowed to travel naturally as a herd

(Cape Town, 2018-11-09)

#274

These horses are meant to be free and was entrapped here by a wealthy landowner for his own gain.

(Kleinmond , 2018-11-09)

#276

Those horses need to be together. They are one family

(Kleinmond, 2018-11-09)

#278

Free animals must stay free.

(Overstrand, 2018-11-09)

#279

Wild animals should not be separated from each other and cognizance must be take. Of their travel pattern.

(Stanford, 2018-11-09)

#280

The horses should be free.

(Cape Town, 2018-11-09)

#282

Who gave the landowner permission to keep the horses? They belong to no one.... they should be freed immediately...

(Hermanus, 2018-11-09)

#284

Absolutely shocked that this was allowed to happen. These horses don't belong to anyone & no-one has the right to lock them in. They are part of all South Africans heritage & deserve to roam free!!!

(Western Cape, 2018-11-09)

#Save Kleinmond horses.

(Pringle Bay, 2018-11-09)

#289

This petition should be taken seriously. The horses are truly heritage and should be given back their freedom. Hope to see the horses again past Rooisand and even in Fisherhaven where I was privikeged to spot them once in 2014... When they were wild and free: as they still should be.

(Hermanus, 2018-11-09)

#291

Anyone in his right mind will know it's wrong....they have been together for years ...to seperate some of them by keeping them fenced in is very cruel.

(Bettys Bay , 2018-11-10)

(Helderberg, 2018-11-10)

#344

These horses should be free to roam as they always were. It is not our decision as to where they should stay! #freethehorses!

(Hermanus, 2018-11-10)

#347

We have a house at Meerensee, and it breaks my heart that the horses are captivated. They are WILD, and should maintain that status.

(Cape Town, 2018-11-10)

(Bellville, 2018-11-10)

#357

These are wild free horses living there for years. Now some idiot human has bought ground and fenced it totally changing the environment. Elephants have been refused as they should be. Leave the area wild.

(Bettys bay, 2018-11-10)

Those horses are not meant to be caged in, its like birds who was blessed with wings but cannot use them because they are caged in, so it is with horses who wants to roam free and run but the cage stops their one joy and purpose.

(Worcester, 2018-11-10)

How can 1 person decide to restrict these wonderful wild animals who have roamed free for decades.

(Cape town , 2018-11-10)

#385

i grew up in kleinmond and my fater always took us to go see the wild horses in their beautiful nature

(kleinmond, 2018-11-10)

#389

This is unacceptable. Breaking up the herd is destroying part of our heritage, it is inhumane and cruel to the horses. These horses are not the property of that land owner - sounds to me he is taking what is not his ... and that is criminal.

(Cape Town, 2018-11-10)

#395

I feel the horse shoul not be enclosed!!!
