The mission of the Virginia Range Sanctuary (VRS) is to protect, aid and preserve the animals of the Virginia Range in Nevada, including the wild/feral/estray horses. In doing so, we also aim to safeguard and revitalize their habitat in order to benefit the entire ecosystem. Key activities include: rescue and rehabilitation of orphaned foals and horses with life-threatening injuries or illness, addressing public safety concerns through approved measures, implementation of humane management strategies to optimize herd size and health, promoting public interest and support for the Virginia Range wild/feral/estray horses, and a long-term goal of acquiring land to create an on-the-range sanctuary.
