Willie Nelson Rescued 70 Horses From Slaughter and Let Them Roam Free! Willie Nelson, the renowned musician and devoted horse lover, rescued 70 horses from being slaughtered. These horses now roam freely on his 700-acre ranch in Texas. When not on tour, Nelson spends most of his time at Luck Ranch, his true home. He explained the ranch's name to Paul Venema from KSAT 12 News: "When you're here, you're in Luck, and when you're not, you're out of Luck."

Nelson believes his horses are the luckiest in the world. He said, "They get hand-fed twice a day and were ready for slaughter. So, they're happy horses." Nelson's love for horses is well-known. His song "Ride Me Back Home" and the award-winning video for "The Love of Horses" highlight his dedication. The video features Nelson with Habitat for Horses, an organization fighting to end horse slaughter.

This passion runs in the family. Nelson's son, Lukas, supports organizations like Saving America's Horses and Habitat for Horses. His band, Lukas Nelson & Promise, also expresses admiration for horses through their music. At nearly 90, Nelson remains active and passionate about important issues. When asked about retirement, he said, "I retire after every show. But then we hang out, feel like playing, and so we play again."
