Summer is in full swing and we are bracing ourselves for one of the busiest weeks of the season. Do you know what to do if you suspect a wild horse is in immediate danger or seriously hurt?
If you come across a horse you believe is in distress or witness illegal activity (feeding or touching/getting too close), please immediately call the Currituck County communications center at 252-453-3633. Law enforcement can be dispatched and they will contact our staff who is on call 24/7. We may then reach out to you for more details - photographs and videos are often crucial, so please keep that in mind and document what you’re seeing if possible.
Posting about injuries or other issues on Facebook without first calling dispatch wastes valuable response time, makes communication difficult for us, and could put horses and people in danger. Please save the number in your phone if you are going to be on the 4x4 and let that call be your first step if you believe a horse needs help.
Thank you for helping us keep the horses safe!
