Facebook Authors Plead for Interventions from Hobbs

This is the response we got from Governor Katie Hobbs office who has received hundreds of calls and emails from all over the country. The State of AZ is spending tax dollars assisting the Havasupai Tribe, but she won’t even pick up the phone and try to help these starving animals.
Email or call her again and ask “ Why is it you will pose for a photo opp with the tribe, provide state funds to the tribe but not exert any influence to facilitate help for these starving animals or an end to the animal abuse by the tribe? “

Havasupai Dark Secret
I feel like I waited a lifetime for this trip. With Covid and mudslides our permit was delayed 3 years. When our dates came up this year we were pumped.
Sadly, this trip. . . this area has an ugly secret that no one seems to be talking about.
Do not use this service. You are not doing any favors to the souls who are doing the work. The animals are in no shape to carry your bags. They are malnourished, injured and abused. This broke my heart and I do not understand how people can work with these animals everyday and not want to do more for them. You take care of your people, your animals, your surroundings and they will take care of you.
I am a very positive person and I love hiking and being out doors. I want to be grateful for this experience. But if I had known that I would see and experience the things that I did on this trip I would have skipped it. There are other areas of beauty in this world that will not break your heart like this experience broke mine.
