The U.S. Bureau of Land Management is hosting a wild horse and burro adoption event in Las Cruces, with 100 animals available for adoption. The event will take place on Jan. 31 and Feb. 1 at the Doña Ana County Fairgrounds, offering adult and yearling horses as well as burros that once roamed free on public lands in the west.
The BLM is offering up to $1,000 to adopt an untrained animal at the event in Las Cruces, as an incentive for potential adopters. This incentive will be available for every animal at the event. Those interested in adopting can find more information by calling toll-free 866-468-7826 or visiting www.blm.gov/whb.
