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!

Nevada has over 100 HMA's, and also it has more wild horses than all the other states combined. Because of their sheer numbers, Nevada HMA's have not been studied to the extent that they have in some of the other states. Nevada horses are no less unique and wonderful, however. And there ARE identifiable herd characteristics.

There are so many Nevada HMA's that they cry out for organization. Here are a few ways. Choose whichever one makes sense to you:

USFWS - Sheldon
Nevada's Comstock Horses
Nevada HMA Map
Battle Mountain
Carson City HMA's
Elko Field Office
Ely Field Office
Las Vegas Field Office
Winnemucca HMA's
