Learn more about USDA (United States Department of Agriculture)

The United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) plays a crucial role in the management and protection of America's wild horses and burros. It oversees various programs that impact these animals, including funding for range improvements and grazing management. The USDA's policies can directly affect the welfare of wild horse populations, particularly through its collaboration with the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) on issues like population control and land use. Advocacy groups, including the American Wild Horse Conservation, closely monitor USDA actions to ensure they align with humane treatment and conservation efforts for wild horses, emphasizing the need for sustainable management practices that respect these iconic animals.
