Rather than allow 80 wild horses living on public land to be destroyed, the founders of the Wild Horse Sanctuary decided to rescue these unwanted horses and create a safe home for them. And they launched a media campaign to bring attention to the plight of these and hundreds of other wild horses across the west that eventually led to a national moratorium on killing un-adoptable wild horses. The equine population at the sanctuary has since grown to 400 or so animals on 5,000 acres of lava rock-strewn mountain meadows and forest land, not far from towering Mount Lassen
