A hilly range of land stretching across northern California and Nevada is home to one of our country’s rarest and most distinctive herd of horses.  They are called the Carter Reservoir Mustangs and their origin can be traced back to horses that the Spanish explorers brought to North America over 500 years ago. 

Carter Reservoir Mustangs is working to preserve and protect these horse in the wild on their home range with hopefully increased healthy, viable numbers on expanded habitat. CRMI is also preparing to help relocate some of the Carters to private lands, preferably in breeding family bands to maintain their special heritage bloodlines, and to assist in the safe placement of some of the younger Carters with human companions/riders.

At the start of the 20^th century, 2 million wild horses peacefully roamed America. Today, just 60,000 remain.
