Saddle-Trained Wild Horses Available For Adoption By BLM The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) in coordination with the Sacramento County Sheriff’s Office is offering one halter-trained and up to eight saddle-trained wild horses for adoption. The virtual competitive-bid event will start at 6 p.m. Pacific Time via Zoom on Thursday, March 25. The BLM gathered the wild horses from overpopulated herds on western ranges as part of its mission to manage healthy horses on healthy public lands. The horses were trained by inmates in the Rio Cosumnes Correctional Center wild horse training program in Elk Grove. The training program, established in 2013, provides prospective adopters with horses that have a sound start in their training, while providing inmates valuable professional and life skills.
