The Navajo Nation and a group founded by former Gov. Bill Richardson and actor Robert Redford have agreed on a plan to manage thousands of wild horses on the reservation.
Richardson says the agreement is a first step in trying to find a long-term, humane alternative to sending horses to slaughter houses.
The agreement announced Thursday calls for adoptions, triages, veterinarian services and sanctuaries. A formal signing is planned later this year.
