There are many debates over the Brumbies of Australia and their impact, their hooves compact soil which leaves no air spaces where water can soak into the soil, which causes drought like conditions after some time. They also eat the grass and foliage which can cause soil erosion and 'dust bowl' type problems. There is also the problem of over population in some areas which can lead to health problems for the horses and not enough space for native species.
