Learn more about Land Use Policies

Land use policies are critical frameworks that govern the management and utilization of public lands, particularly in relation to wild horses and burros. These policies dictate how land is allocated for various uses, including livestock grazing, wildlife habitat, and recreational activities. The American Wild Horse Conservation advocates for equitable land use policies that prioritize the protection of wild horse habitats while ensuring sustainable grazing practices. By addressing the imbalance in resource allocation, where livestock often dominate forage access, these policies aim to create a more harmonious coexistence between wild horses and agricultural interests. Effective land use policies are essential for preserving the ecological integrity of rangelands and ensuring the survival of America's wild horse populations.
