This is the link we just mentioned to the FAQs website for the wild horses of Corolla. Here is the number to report interference/harassment and we recommend adding it to your phone if you're planning on visiting the Corolla, NC, area: 252-453-3633 is the number to call. It's the number for the Currituck County sheriff’s dispatch. You will need to give a location, description of offenders/their vehicles and if possible, I license plate. Also pictures and/or video.

A: If you can safely take a picture of the horse (remaining at least 50 feet away at all times) please do so. Then call the Fund at 252-453-8002 or, if after

We've been posting about the Shackleford Banks wild horses for some time now. Mainly because we have personally been to and recommend Shackleford Banks as a spot that has good shelling potential and we feel we also need to do our share to help protect the horses. That said, there are also the Corolla Wild Horses that face the same issues as the Shackleford Horses with interactions with people. I just saw this posted on another page. After this, we will also be posting the FAQs/Corolla Wild Horses/Corolla Wild Horse Fund for more information and numbers to report interference/harassment (and that includes feeding them apples, carrots, any other food intended for human consumption). https://abc11.com/post/billboard-warns-against-treats-for-outer-banks-wild-horses/3690436/?fbclid=IwY2xjawTxuGVwZG9mBWV4dG4DYWVtAjEwAGJyaWQRMXBIOTk4UkxtTHVBWktubzdzcnRjBmFwcF9pZBAyMjIwMzkxNzg4MjAwODkyAAEeoi0IpCx9apyUFxg344p0cbUaSW9VqlLNM47byXZSnuT81wXfvo-_rTc72kQ_aem_H8bi0iBMWPHWCpr5K3JqzA&userab=kfsn_content_recs-582%2Avariant_b_trending_kfsn-2513%2Ckabc_content_recs-577%2Avariant_a_control-2480%2Cwls_content_recs-584%2Avariant_a_control_wls-2516%2Cwtvd_content_recs-585%2Avariant_a_control_wtvd-2518%2Cktrk_content_recs-587%2Avariant_b_trending_ktrk-2523%2Cwpvi_content_recs-586%2Avariant_b_trending_wpvi-2521%2Cotv_web_content_rec-539%2Avariant_c_trending-2268%2Cotv_web_topic-580%2Avariant_a_topic-2508%2Cotv_search_page_design_unification-546%2Avariant_b_search_redesign-2300%2Cotv_mobile_web_content_recs-639%2Avariant_a_control-3429%2Ckgo_content_recs-583%2Avariant_a_control_kgo-2514%2Cabcn_popular_reads_exp-542%2Avariant_b_7days_filter-2288%2Cotvlink_abcnnav-576%2Avariant_b_local-2479

Property owners, merchants, and wild horse enthusiasts are urging the summer flood of tourists to North Carolina's Outer Banks to let the area's wild horses stay wild.
