About Wild Horse Preservation League
Wild Horse Preservation League is for the wild horses of Northwest Nevada, and for the people, schools, landowners, and local agencies who live alongside them. Since 2001, it has focused on keeping horses in their natural habitats while building the public understanding and practical tools that make coexistence more workable. If you care about wild horses, this is the kind of organization that stays close to the ground, with education, advocacy, hotline response, and field coordination all aimed at the same outcome.
What stands out here is how practical the work is. Alongside advocacy and public education, the League helps with hotline response, fence-line repair, population management, and member training, so the support reaches beyond conversation and into the places where people and horses actually intersect.
