Wild Horse Sanctuary

Wild Horse Sanctuary The Sanctuary is located near Shingletown, California on 5,000 acres of lush lava rock-strewn mountain meadow and forest land. Lassen is to the east.

The Wild Horse Sanctuary is a non-profit, tax exempt, public foundation and 5,000 acre preserve dedicated to the protection and preservation of America's wild horses. Rather than allow 80 wild horses living on public land to be destroyed, the founders of the Wild Horse Sanctuary made a major life decision right then and there to rescue these unwanted horses and create a safe home for them. And jus

t as quickly, they launched a media campaign to bring attention to the plight of these and hundreds of other wild horses across the west that eventually led to a national moratorium on killing un-adoptable wild horses. Black Butte is to the west and towering Mt. The current location features better accessibility for the public, a milder winter climate with more natural cover, and other benefits for the horses.

Winter solstice today we are already looking forward to more daylight. Today it is, just another rainy day, but thankfully no snow. With our herd of 250, we have to keep rotating our feed grounds, otherwise, it gets super muddy. So far, we are managing well due to our new fenced off areas.

Today we took two more mustangs to live out their lives here. That made a total of 23 mustangs saved in 2024, we could not do it without our amazing donors. These horses all have a story no judgement to the horse or their humans. Many of these horses want to stay wild, the beauty of our sanctuary is we let them have their freedom on almost 5000 acres. They make friends and some love the human interaction, but they have to come to the fence if they choose to be with us. There is a treat or a scratch waiting. The sunset today says welcome to all of the horses that are new to the sanctuary in 2024. Live wild and free forever.
