Help Us Cross the Finish Line — and Carry the Truth Forward

This season, your gift powers a women-led newsroom working to hold federal agencies accountable for how they manage the vast landscapes and wild species of the American West.

We’re raising $15,000 by year’s end (with a $25,000 stretch goal) to finish our short film on the Devil’s Garden wild horses and to sustain our investigative reporting into 2025.

Every dollar brings us closer to truth from the ground — not filtered through politics or corporate influence, but told by journalists, filmmakers, and communities living it.

Our Mission

Wild Narrative Project is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, nonpartisan newsroom investigating how public lands are managed — and who benefits from those decisions.

We’re committed to accountability journalism that protects fragile ecosystems, wildlife, and cultural heritage across the West.

Your Gift Directly Supports

Paying journalists, editors, and storytellers to deliver consistent, deeply researched news.
Elevating women experts, journalists, and storytellers who bring lived experience and leadership to environmental reporting.
Hiring Indigenous reporters and advisors — because conservation cannot be covered without the communities whose land was taken.
Completing post-production for our short film Devil’s Garden — proof that independent journalism can confront powerful interests with truth and integrity.

Watch the teaser for our short film about California's largest and rapidly disappearing herd of wild horses in Devil's Garden.

Our Work in Motion

We’re reporting on the issues shaping the future of the American West:

The true crime behind big-money ranching and public land politics.
How wolves are protected in Yellowstone but persecuted elsewhere.
Why Sage Grouse habitat keeps disappearing — and what’s really driving it.
The policy failures behind wild horse removals.
The quiet privatization of public lands disguised as “conservation.”
These are the stories most media won’t touch. You make them possible.
