The Wild Horses of America Foundation was established in 2001 as a 501(c)3 charity with the goal of bettering the lives of America’s wild horses and burros.  

When we started there were 10,000 horses and burros that had been removed from their native ranges and were being held in BLM facilities and pastures. Today, with approximately 61,000 in corrals and pastures (as of October 2023), our work focuses on keeping America’s wild horses and burros on the range.

Since 2015 we have partnered with the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) to treat the Onaqui Mountain Herd with contraception.  Our work has been successful, and the herd’s reproductive rate has been reduced to about 5% per year.  (Wild horse herds typically reproduce at a 15-20% rate, which means any given herd can double in size every 4-5 years.)

Your support is crucial to sustain this humane approach and extend similar programs to other herds. Join us in ensuring the best quality of life for America’s wild horses and burros.
