HINES, Ore. (AP) — The Oregon Wild Horse Corral Facility in Hines will be open Friday and Saturday for a special adoption event featuring mustangs from the Cold Springs, Stinkingwater and Warm Springs Herd Management Areas.

The U.S. Bureau of Land Management says the event gives anyone interested the opportunity to get out and see wild horses up close, and maybe bring one home.

A handful of selected mustangs will be available by silent competitive bid on Saturday at 11:00 a.m. Only qualified event-goers can adopt a mustang.

But there are several hundred mares, geldings and foals available in various ages and color patterns ranging from bay and black to pinto and appaloosa.

The corral is located near milepost 122 on Highway 20 West.
