- They aren't. However, the government is killing off wild horses in order for ranchers to have more open grazing room for cattle.

- Remember, horses are not native to the Americas. They were brought here by the first Spanish Conquistadors. They compete with our native wildlife for whatever land the cattle aren't using.
