Let’s not forget they make excellent bbq (we must be green and recycle).

At least, that is what I have been told

it worked in TN and the snail darter fish. didn’t know if the building of dams had any effect on the snail darter but they were able to shut down the TN valley project. Still working today due sympathies bureaucrats.

All horses in the wild in the US are feral or descendants of feral horses.🙄

I’m sure they end up eating a lot of grass. Around here, they do well in mixed environments, as well. They’ll eat English Ivy off the trees, as high as they can reach, skunk cabbage, blackberry, lots of cultivated plants. There’s a field that they stay in up north. It had a bunch of sedges that are toxic. They ate them sporadically. One day, the farmer found a herd all apparently dead and was making provisions to get them hauled off, when they started reviving.
