Livno wild horse water crisis

Overview

Wild horses on the Kruzi Plateau near Livno are facing a critical water shortage caused by extreme heat and prolonged hydrological drought. As natural watering holes have dried up, the survival of these animals, which serve as a regional symbol, has come under significant threat.

Local citizens and activists have criticized authorities for failing to maintain water infrastructure despite decades of allocated funding. There are growing demands for transparency regarding how public funds for horse management have been used, with calls for urgent interventions such as water deliveries via tankers.

The situation has highlighted systemic issues including poaching, unregulated tourism, and a lack of institutional responsibility. These challenges are documented in the film ‘Livanjski divlji konji između slobode i nebrige’ (Livno Wild Horses Between Freedom and Neglect), which addresses the perceived neglect by agencies that often shift accountability between one another.
