You Can Make A Lasting Difference

Our preservation of America’s iconic wild mustangs and respective wild places speaks to our greater good, now and for future generations. From the start, Wild Love has been a WE project made possible by donations, grants, sponsorships, in-kind services and volunteers. As Wild Love Preserve moves into our 16th year of wild horse conservation our Keeping It Wild campaign continues our fundraising efforts toward wild horse operations, conservation, and education programs. We have big dollars to raise that support our adopted 225+ Challis-Idaho wild horses, this includes the 42 remaining from the BLMs 2019 helicopter roundup that needed placement, 8 more in 2022, and future wild horses removed from Idaho public lands. As per our mission, our adoptions and purchase of Challis-Idaho wild horses not otherwise adopted is in keeping with the initial 130+ wild lives we secured following the 2012 Challis roundup. Once with us, they live forever wild and together on their terms in their natural habitat at Wild Love Preserve. We do not adopt horses out, nor do we gentle wild horses - we are hands off. 100% of every donation supports our boots-on-the-ground work.

In 2023 we completed phase one of fencing and our 225+ wild horses are very happy roaming this rocky terrain that is necessary for their health and well-being. Our extensive custom-fabricated corral system for safely moving horses and research projects was completed in 2025. As we celebrate our 16th anniversary, we are currently raising funds for the next phases of our massive perimeter fencing project which is in motion, so that we can release all of our wild horses to freely roam the entirety of the preserve in their chosen family bands. This is a very large and encompassing project. As you can imagine, the costs are very steep. We have many miles of wildlife-friendly perimeter fencing to build, roads to first cut in for access, springs to develop for water, as well, trees to plant and habitat to restore.
