WyWHIP is a group of dedicated volunteers, committed to responsible conservation efforts of the American Mustang,
We work to preserve the heritage of the horses, particularly on Wyoming rangelands.
We educate the public worldwide on the issues American Mustangs face in the west, and especially in Wyoming.
We live and work with mustangs in captivity and on the range, communicating with major stakeholders, and collaborating to find innovative solutions.
WYWHIP partners with other organizations and individuals to help the tens of thousands of American Mustangs who are no longer free on the range.
