"Wild" horses are also a big problem in Nevada. Were it not for stupid government policy, the state could simply issue hunting licenses for horses, just as they do for other game animals. This would turn "wild" horse control from a cost center to a profit center.
The reason that I put quotes around "wild", is that there are no wild horses in the Americas, there are merely feral horses. These horses were introduced and came from domesticated breeds. They cause big problems for native species.
That’s correct, they’re only called wild, they are indeed descendants of domestic horses and there’s way too many now.
I would love to go see these “wild” horses......
