SALT LAKE CITY—The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) and the Delta Wild Horse and Burro Facility open house adoption featuring wild horses recently gathered from the Cedar Mountain Herd Management Area (HMA) was a deemed a success by BLM officials. 
Approximately 300 horses were available for adoption on Saturday, April 22. Over 300 people attended the event, some traveling as far as California, Colorado, Wyoming, Idaho, Nevada, and throughout the state of Utah.
All horses were offered through a competitive bid process. A total of 38 horses have now found new homes in private care.
The BLM uses its adoption program as the primary tool to place these animals into private care.  The horses featured for adoption were excess wild horses gathered and removed from within and outside the Cedar Mountain Wild Horse Herd Management Area in western Utah.
Cedar Mountain horses are still available for adoption from the Delta Wild Horse and Burro Facility.
