Uh - you could license folks to wrangle their own horse - limit the number of to be taken, limit it to mares/fillies and - voilà - fewer horses in the environment now, and fewer foals next year and the following year. Then re-evaluate.

This sounds like some graduate school, "good idea" fairy crap. Capitalism can help a situation like this tremendously.

Yeah but that’s unsightly. Movies have been made around breaking a horses wild spirit. The white liberal women will fall out in the streets if they did that.

We’re “lucky” hogs aren’t as cuddly as horses and cats. Feral mammal populations are hard on the environment.
