Subject: This polygon feature class shows the boundaries for BLM Wild Horse and Burro Herd Areas within the BLM Administrative State of Nevada.
These areas were designated in 1971 as the result of wild horses and/or burros being found during initial flights of them that same year. As additional surveys were done and data gathered, it was determined that some of these lands and animals were actually on private lands and/or were private animals. Areas with private animals that were "claimed" during the claiming period were not carried forward as Herd Areas. Herd Areas were carried forward in land use plans and determinations were made as to whether or not to manage animals on these federal lands.
