Paul Crane Tohlakai—a leading Indigenous spokesman for saving mustangs, sacred sites, and bison in North America—is now a highly esteemed member of the advisory council for the International Society for the Protection of Mustangs and Burros (ISPMB).
Tohlakai is a spiritual advisor who has played an instrumental role in indigenous ceremonies for more than three decades. He also serves as a BISON International guide for people taking eco-cultural journeys. Tohlakai additionally hosts horse-related training seminars and creates world-renowned Navajo drums. All in all, he is passionate about cultural preservation, redemptive movements, and protecting the environment, which is why he was handpicked to join the ISPMB advisory council.
The purpose of the advisory council is to advise the society’s development team on key projects and future decisions. The council currently consists of a handful of experts in conservation, the traditions practiced by Native Americans, business, and law.
The ISPMB advisory council expects to welcome more professionals and advisors in the future, ranging from fundraising consultants to financial advisors, architects, Native American spiritual advisors and elders, veterinarians, conservationists, landscape designers, and lawyers. With the help of the advisory council, the ISPMB aims to ultimately achieve its core goals and sustainably increase its operations, partly by spearheading a winning fundraising campaign.
The advisory council is currently focused on the ISPMB’s new flagship project—an International Wild Horse and Burro Heritage CENTER (CENTER)—that will be located in South Dakota. At the CENTER, visitors can take safari tours that will allow them to get up close and personal with some of today’s wild mustangs across the Black Hills. In addition, luxury accommodation will be made available to guests looking for more than a day trip. The goal of the center is to enable horse enthusiasts to experience wild horses’ natural habitat firsthand for years to come.
