TOOELE COUNTY, Utah — A wild horse was found dead from a gunshot on a wildlife refuge in western Utah, and a nonprofit is offering a reward for information about the shooting. The stallion was found dead on Sunday in the Onaqui Herd Management Area, which is located in Tooele County and overseen by the Bureau of Land Management. The Wild Beauty Foundation said the 'beloved wild horse' was called 'Pyrite.' The foundation said the horse's body was found just outside Dugway.
The Onaqui Catalogue Foundation, another nonprofit dedicated to wild horse conservation, said the horse was also known as 'Goldie' and 'Glory.' 'At this time, we are grieving. Pyrite was an eye-catching young palomino stallion who was a favorite of many who visited the range,' the organization wrote in a Facebook post. Anyone with information about the case is asked to contact the BLM’s Law Enforcement Tipline at 1-800-637-9152. Tips can be made anonymously.
