A deadly EHV-1 outbreak halted parts of the 2025 National Finals Rodeo, forcing strict health measures despite no cases in Nevada.
A major equine herpesvirus 1 (EHV-1) outbreak has disrupted the 2025 Wrangler National Finals Rodeo in Las Vegas, prompting strict health measures despite no confirmed cases in Nevada.
The virus, which can cause respiratory and neurological issues with a 15% to 30% mortality rate, has infected at least 60 horses across multiple states.
In response, organizers restricted horse movement, required health permits and 21-day quarantines from affected areas, and kept horses off the arena floor during the grand entry, with riders walking in on foot.
Daily temperature checks, physical barriers, and enhanced sanitation were implemented at venues, leading to canceled events and reduced participation.
Horse boarding facilities reported lower business as owners avoided the event due to infection fears.
Officials emphasize animal health and safety remain top priorities, with ongoing monitoring and coordination to prevent further spread.
