Save15 Kaimanawa Horses from being aerial culled.

  • Fantastic - we have reached our target and more!

      26 July 2026

    Thanks to your generous donations covering most of the muster costs, we are now able to direct more of our funds toward providing subsidies for people approved to rehome one of the horses from the muster.

    Rehoming a wild horse in the middle of winter is no small commitment, especially with the ongoing cost-of-living pressures, However, it is an incredibly worthwhile and rewarding experience that gives these horses the opportunity for a safe and secure future.

    The dedicated KHH and KLF rehoming teams have been working tirelessly to ensure that every horse leaving the Ranges is matched with a suitable, caring home. Your support is making that possible, and every donation is helping to give these horses another chance at life.

    We're so close to reaching our fundraising target, and thanks to your incredible support, the muster to save these 15 horses is becoming a real possibility.

    This week we'll be meeting with DoC to plan the operation. The use of portable stock yards will bring some new challenges, but it also creates exciting opportunities for smaller, more targeted musters in the future - helping us improve outcomes for Kaimanawa horses.

    We're still accepting applications from experienced people interested in rehoming a muster horse. If you have the skills, knowledge, and facilities to provide a safe, lifelong home, you can download the application form from our website:

    To every person who has donated, shared our campaign, or supported us in any way - thank you. Your generosity is making this rescue possible. Our committee is passionate about securing the best possible outcomes for these horses, and we are truly grateful to have you alongside us on this journey.

    Every donation, no matter the size, brings us one step closer to giving these 15 horses the future they deserve.
