HB 24 Wyoming House · 2022 Regular Session

Wild horse and burro management-2.

Wyoming's HB 24 authorizes the state to manage wild horses and burros on state lands if the federal government fails to do so under federal law. It specifically allows the state to enter cooperative agreements with tribes (including the Eastern Shoshone and Northern Arapaho Tribes on the Wind River Reservation), other states, and private entities to implement management strategies. Key provisions include authorizing population control, fertility management, and expanding wild horse training/adoption programs - such as those using state correctional facilities. The bill takes effect immediately upon enactment.
