This website is owned and created by Nancy Kerson, a private citizen - I am not the BLM or any other branch of government!

Information about BLM adoptions is offered as a service, to help mustangs find homes and to promote public appreciation of wild horses and burros.

Please direct adoption questions to the BLM, not to me.

And I sure as heck am not a Mustang car dealership!

I have NO horses or burros for sale and am not interested in buying or listing or otherwise promoting your sale animals!

IDAHO WILD HORSE & BURRO HERD MANAGEMENT AREAS
(IF you have a horse or burro from one of these areas, and would like to share, please send me a photo - be sure to include your name and the HMA name - Thanks!)

Idaho has 6 wild horse herd areas:

Name of HMA	AML	Current Population	Acreage
Black Mountain*	60	73	50,902
Hardtrigger*	130	118	69,420
The adopter says, "This is a Hardtrigger mustang we adopted when she was 3 months old and now is five.		We rope and barrel race, game, mountain ride. She is an extraordinary animal! We just adopted five more from Saylor Creek."
Sands Basin*	64	54	11,662
Destino from Sands Basin in the Ohyhee Mtns of Idaho
Here's my Sands Basin 2 yr old gelding. He was the last yearling colt left after the adoptions. He is solid chestnut color. I plan to show him in Dressage and have my kids ride him as a Hunter Jumper. He should come in at 15.2h. He is the smartest horse I've ever worked, and my best friend. The other day I set up a jump shute. He jumped the 4 foot guide instead of the small jump - because it looked like more fun??? He also loves to watch other horses work. He wants to do the work. I like his type. I think it is the true mustang look. Long stride huge up hill build solid bone and great feet. He floats at all 4 gaits! I want to do more to help people train young mustangs. warm Regards, Annie McKillop
Four-Mile	60	66	18,032
Saylor Creek	NA	201	18,034
Challis	185	185	164,720

* Due to their proximity to one another, these HMA's are being managed as a single Complex.

These are a few photos I took while leading small groups of friends to see the Wild Horses near Jump Creek the last three weeks. We backed off when we saw the new foal. I love the beauty of the Owyhees. - Dennis Ferree Outback Adventures
