The Black Hills Wild Horse Sanctuary of South Dakota was founded in 1988 by Dayton O. Hyde. Our purpose is to provide not only freedom for unadoptable and unwanted wild horses, but also a research area dedicated to solving wild horse herd management that will contribute to the well-being of wild horses everywhere.

The Sanctuary's Board of Directors, Staff and Volunteers are devoted to the spirit of the wild mustangs by giving America’s unwanted wild horses a quality life of freedom.

The Sanctuary is a showcase where the public can see large herds of wild horses running free and come to understand our efforts toward the conservation of the land, native plants and wildlife and the preservation of our western heritage including indigenous culture
and America’s Wild Mustang!
