I think migrate is not the most accurate word. The Mustang, which is a feral horse, roam over large territories finding new places to graze. Once an area has been eaten down, they will move on in search of greener pastures. This constant roaming keeps the horses from devestating the environment with over-grazing, which in turn will cause soil erosion during rainy season.
