Wild Horse Gather Planned For Next Week

The Bureau of Land Management is conducting a helicopter wild horse gather on or around November 26th in the Silver King Herd Management Area in eastern Nevada. The BLM says the area is currently over 10-times above the land’s capacity to support wild horses along with the other wildlife long term. The BLM plans to gather and remove up to 980 excess wild horses over 21 days. All horses removed will be taken to the Indian Lakes Off-Range Wild Horse and Burro Corrals in Fallon, Nevada, where they will be checked by a veterinarian and readied for the BLM’s wild horse and burro adoption program.
