None. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the "Mormon" church) banned the practice of polygamy among its members over 120 years ago in 1890. Anyone found practicing polygamy, whether they are legally married or not, is immediately excommunicated.
It is estimated that there are about 30,000 polygamist families in the US. None are members of the Mormon church.

What lifestyle did the Mormon wives practice where the husband had more than 1 wife?
The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the "Mormon" church) allowed men to have more than one wife for a period of 50 years, between 1840 and 1890. This practice was called "polygamy" or "plural marriage". Polygamy has been banned in the Mormon church for over 120 years, and anyone found attempting to marry multiple wives is excommunicated from the church. There were some who disagreed with the polygamy ban. These broke off and formed their own groups, many of which still exist today. These groups have similar beliefs to the mainstream Mormon church, but still practice polygamy. They call themselves "Fundamentalist Mormons". There are less than 100,000 Fundamentalist Mormons, and there are over 14,000,000 Mainstream Mormons. The Mainstream Mormons and the Fundamentalist Mormons generally do not accept each other as legitimate.

Do Mormons believe that you can have up to 4 wives the same as Muslims?
No. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the "Mormon" church) banned the practice of polygamy (having more than one wife) over 120 years ago, in 1890. The only way that a Mormon man could have more than one wife in his lifetime is if he has been divorced or widowed then remarried - NEVER more than one wife at the same time. Mormons are very strict about chastity and fidelity. Church members are expected to have sexual relationships only within a legal heterosexual marriage. Those who have sex outside of this context run the risk of being excommunicated from the church. Check out the "Related Links" below to learn more.
