The American Wild Horse Conservation is a nonprofit organization focused on defending and preserving America's wild horses and burros on western public lands, aiming to safeguard their freedom, habitat, humane treatment, and their place in national heritage. It pursues humane solutions to keep the animals wild and safe while raising public awareness of their ecological and cultural role in the American West. Its programs address threats from government actions that seek to round up, warehouse, or slaughter wild horses, employing education and advocacy, in-the-wild management, and legislative or legal action to influence policy. Based in Davis, California, the organization operates within the nonprofit sector and engages a broad audience, including coalition partners and members of the equestrian and outdoor communities. It has launched initiatives such as the Land Conservancy Project in 2024 to preserve key habitat, and in 2026 it collaborated with Animals’ Angels on an investigation into how wild horse foals are treated in BLM holding facilities, reflecting its work across habitat protection and accountability.
