Reid Announces Resolution in Support of First Annual National Wild Horse and Burro Adoption Day

Over 18,000 young horses awaiting adoption, training

Nevada Senator Harry Reid released the following statement today following his introduction of a resolution in support of National Wild Horse and Burro Adoption Day, which will be held on September 26th.

"Through adoption of a wild horse or burro, Nevadans have the opportunity to experience and become a part of our Western legacy. These amazing animals can be trained to work stock, to ride trails in the backcountry, and even to serve our communities as police horses," Reid said. "Activities on September 26th will include not only adoptions, but also educational events and wild horse expositions. In fact, more than 65 events will take place across the country."
