There are several groups of wild horses in the US. There is the wild mustang in the western range states "sharing" grazing land with cattle, and bison. The only problem with this court order "sharing plan" is that the wild horses really have no "owners" supporting their rights to graze on these lands. While the cattle and bison have the force and will of their owner's behind them, not only enforcing, but extending their range rights for longer grazing, and more acerage, anytime factors require extra feeding. The wild horses only support are non-profit organizations that petion the court systems to enforce their orders for no fences, and fear free grazing ranges. The another group of wild horses in the US is a small group on the Outer Banks of North Carolina. This is two small herds and they live in harsh conditions, on the shifting sands of the islands. They are subjected to hurricanes off the coast and their numbers are declining. There are about 110 horses in the Shackleford Banks herd and 89 in Currick County, in the northern Outer Banks herd. A breeding program has just been started, off site to try to save the gentic breed incase of a natural disaster or a gentic collaspe. Less than 100 horses in a herd is considered at extinction level. There is also a tiny group of horses the Abaco Wild horse in the Bahamas, off the Gold coast of Florida. I know very little about them, but I understand at one time there were over 200 in the herd and now there are less than 15.

∙ 13y agoThat depends on your definition of 'wild'. The wild mustangs of America are decedents of domesticated horses that were either released or got loose. This means that they may be considered 'feral' rather than 'wild'. Many consider the only 'wild' horse to be the Przewalski's wild horse. This horse is considered to be extinct in the wild.

∙ 12y agoThere is only one true remaining wild horse, the Asiatic Wild horse which roams the Steppe lands of Russia/Asia. There are however many 'feral' horses running lose in America, such as the Mustangs, Banker horses, Sable Island horse and the Chincoteague pony to name a few. There is also the Brumby in Australia.
