The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) will soon begin gathering up to 135 wild horses from the Reveille herd management area (HMA) and surrounding Reveille Allotment, located about 50 miles east of Tonopah in Nye County, Nevada.

The BLM said 80 wild horses will be removed from the HMA and transported to a BLM adoption facility, while approximately 55 horses will be released back to the HMA for a post-gather population of 93. Fertility control will be applied to all mares released back into the HMA.

The gather is tentatively scheduled to begin on Jan. 29. The start date will be finalized in the coming weeks and updated information will be available on the Reveille HMA Gather webpage at bit.ly/2iBwq4O.

A decision and determination of National Environmental Policy Act adequacy is available for review on the Reveille HMA Gather webpage
