About Us
The US Wild Horse and Burro Association, Inc. was founded October 26, 2008 by four volunteers of the Bureau of Land Managements "Adopt a Wild Horse and Burro" program.
The USWHBA is dedicated to the promotion, adoption, and enjoyment of all of America's wild equine breeds.
Through education, volunteerism, mentoring, and training, USWHBA achieves the goal of placing wild horses and burros into the hands of kind, caring, and capable adopters. USWHBA makes available to adopters and owners the people and resources neccessary to reach that goal.
The USWHBA is a non political organization. We do not support, nor are we supported by any political party, candidate, or agenda.
All funds received by the organization through membership dues, animal registration fees, and donations are used solely for the promotion of the organization and the animals we support.
Due to the vast numbers of wild horses on the range and in holding facilities, the USWHBA does not encourage, support, or endorse the breeding of wild equine once adopted. Purpose bred mustangs and burros are not eligible for registration with the USWHBA.
What we do
The USWHBA works in cooperation with the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) and their "Adopt a Wild Horse or Burro program".We help the BLM, Forest Service Et Al, find suitable adopters and promote the adoption program.
The USWHBA assists past, present, and future adopters by providing them with the help and training they need to maintain a rewarding and fun relationship with their animal(s).
