Published by Bureau of Land Management | Department of the Interior | Metadata Last Checked: February 12, 2026 | Last Modified: 2024-02-12T16:36:47Z
This polygon feature class represents the spatial extent and boundaries for BLM Wild Horse and Burro Herd Area polygons. BLM Wild Horse and Burro Herd Areas have been designated by The Wild Free-Roaming Horse and Burro Act of 1971 as areas that wild horses and burros appeared to be inhabiting. Federal lands identified in 1971 but not managed for wild horses and burros are called Herd Areas. Originally designated Herd Areas contain Herd Management Areas. Management status can change based on changing conditions. Data within these services are a live copy of BLM Utah's enterprise production environment. Quality control is conducted annually.
