the Bureau of Land Management is not corralling all wild horses, but they periodically do a roundup/ infertility shots for the mares. Some of them they let go and some of them they keep to auction off. The reason why they do this is to keep the population of wild horses small so that the land they roam, and land nearby does not get destroyed by over eating vegetation or by being trampled.

horses that aren't tame are called wild horses. The difference between wild horses and tame horses is that tame horses are a lot calmer for one. They let you ride them and are used to life in a stable. Wild horses, however, would throw you off if you tried to ride them. That is, if you can even get near them!
