Feral Horses on the Navajo Nation
The Navajo Nation Department of Fish & Wildlife is working to reduce the impact that feral horses are having on Navajo Nation's wildlife and natural ecosystems.
Do you want to organize a Equine Rescue Operation round-up?
Steps:
1.) Communicate with your chapter house in order to approve a resolution supporting Equine Removal.

Note: If the individual has a RMU or the selected land is withdrawn, a resolution is not required and the Navajo Nation Department of Agriculture can work directly with the individual requesting.
