I may be biased but I feel Nevada has been ground zero on the feral horse issue for as long as I can remember. There was even a petition put together at one point to change the state animal from the desert bighorn sheep to the “wild” horse!!!
It has always appeared to me through the years that...
Last year the entire wild horse and burro program budget was $77,000,000.00. The amount spent from that budget to keep 47,000 horses in holding facilities was....................$44,000,000.00!!!

Just made a random donation to RMEF in support of their national leadership on this issue. Sent NV's Regional Director an email expressing my appreciation as well.
Hello OYOA members! I am a Nevada native who is concerned that this issue will spill over into my home state if it is allowed to continue in others. Below are three contacts that should be informed of your opinion on HB2072. The last one is an AZ sportsman who is compiling as many emails as...
