About American Wild Horse Conservation

STAY WILD. Keep Wild Horses and Burros Wild.

American Wild Horse Conservation (AWHC) is the nation’s leading nonprofit protecting wild horses and burros on public lands, and trusted wild horse conservation experts. Our purpose is to keep America’s promise to wild horses and burros. We honor and uphold their federal protections under the Wild Free Roaming Horses and Burros Act of 1971 and work to ensure humane, sustainable management through advocacy, public reform, and on the range conservation programs. Through collaboration with lawmakers, scientists, advocates and communities, AWHC is building a future where wild horses and burros can thrive on the western landscapes that define our national heritage.
