these are not wild horses....they are feral horses that came over with the conquestidors.....
when they take the food away from native species like bison, antelope, deer and elk and Big Horn sheep they need to regulated like any other species....
They aren't being cleared out to allow enough forage for native species, they are being cleared out to make room for privately owned cattle who lease pasture rights on public land. Argue the benefits of that, if you wish, but it has nothing to do with nature.
Actually you are correct. Indians ate the horses and no horse existed in the land for over 400 years until the spanish brought them back.
You will lose 500 PC points for pointing out the truth 85.671% of Amerians do not want to know.
Sorry, your facts and now not listened to.
