HORSES

Horses - The horses are managed and controlled by The Wild Horse Connection (WHC). The WHC is a private 501(c)(3) nonprofit whose mission is to keep the Wild Horses of the Virginia Range Free, educating the Community about living with our Mustangs and Rescuing those that have to be removed from the range.

It is important to know that it is illegal to feed wild horses in Nevada.

Because of a cooperative agreement with the Nevada Department of Agriculture, one of the most important things Wild Horse Connection does is diversionary feeding. WHC has NDA-approved diversionary feeding sites that are used to divert horses from roadways and neighborhoods. So, you can rest assured that the horses are being cared for. Horses follow patterns. If you feed illegally in your yard, then the horses learn to come there for food. This is dangerous for you and the horses. The goal of WHC is to feed in the hills in approved areas to teach the horses to stay up where they belong and not come into your yard or onto our streets. Follow the laws, and leave the management of the horses to WHC so we can keep the horses where they belong. If you see anyone feeding or harassing the horses, please contact the Wild Horse Connection Hotline at 775-352-3944 or go to the website www.wildhorseconnection.org for more information.

CGID is responsible for cleaning up the horse manure on our streets. Please let them know about your concerns, by contacting their office. (See Contact Us Page on the website.)

Bird Study by Ouyang Lab at the University Nevada Reno Report

Although Avenue de la Couleurs did not end up being an optimal habitat for Northern House Wrens, we do have several occupied boxes, including one Bewick’s Wren nest that successfully fledged six nestlings! Those parents have already begun laying a second clutch of eggs. Photo of the nest, before the nestlings fledged. Update 6-24-2025
