The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) and American Wild Horse Campaign (AWHC) are offering a combined $10,000 reward for information leading to the arrest and conviction of the party responsible for shooting and mortally wounding five wild horses in eastern Nevada.
On Nov. 16, BLM’s Bristlecone Field Office was informed by a member of the public that five wounded horses were discovered in Jakes Valley, about 2 miles south of Highway 50.
Horses ranged from 18 months to 6 years of age. “The person(s) who committed these heinous acts should be brought to justice, and we thank the Bureau of Land Management for offering a reward to find those responsible,” said Holly Gann Bice, director of government relations for the AWHC.
