The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) does occasional round ups and puts them up for adoption. For more info go to the BLM's official website. Google It.

BLM helps the horses by having multiple sights of acreage for the horses to live on and they do not send them to the slaughter house. They also have sale/ adoption days where they will round up all the horses and let people buy them if they have an approved living place for their new mustang. But they also have the 3 sale rule where if a horse has gone through the sales/ adoption days 3 times without being adopted, they are allowed to be bought be slaughter houses (as terrible as it is they do this).

The approved living space for the wild mustang has qualifications, but a few are a fence that is 6 feet tall with no electric or barbed wire, a 3 walled shelter to protect the horse from bad weather, and the suggested space/ maximum area to put your horse in is a round pen (it would be terribly hard to catch a wild horse in your big pasture.)
