PRESERVE AND PROTECT
The Friends of the Heritage Horse Foundation Herds 501(c)3 established to help the foundation herds, preserves and protects the genetically unique, critically endangered Heritage Horses of Oklahoma. Many of these horses' ancestors carried Native American tribal members along the Trail of Tears from their original homelands to "Indian Territory" preserving the family bloodlines. DNA testing has confirmed historical accounts of these horses originally being obtained from De Soto's Spanish Conquistadores, and carefully bred for their enduring characteristics of gentleness and gait.
They have saved many lives throughout history, and now it's our turn to save them.
