The Wild Horse and Burro Facility is designed to expand public awareness of the US Department of the Interior Bureau of Land Management’s Wild Horse and Burro program which manages populations through adoption of the animals to the public. As Nevada has sixty percent of the wild horses and burros in the nation and nearly one hundred herd management areas, the new facility will centralize the efforts to manage the populations and promote the program’s adoption aspect to the public. The facility will also provide educational/interpretive opportunities for children from the local elementary school district and visitors from the nearby Red Rock Canyon Visitor Center.
