Horse gather operations in the Sand Wash Basin Herd Management Area (HMA) have concluded as of September 8. Horse gathering operations will continue outside the HMA on private and public lands in an attempt to gather small, scattered bands of horses known to reside outside the HMA.
In consultation with the Sand Wash Basin Advocacy Team (SWAT), 50 horses (25 studs and 25 mares) were identified to be released back into the HMA after treating the mares for fertility control. These horses will be released on Saturday, September 11.
