Are there still wild horses within the United States?


Answers:
Yes, and you can even "adopt" one.
Yes, in Oklahoma, Arizona, Nevada and some of the more Northwestern states. They are often rounded up and auctioned off by the bureau of land management. Oh yeah, there is also a small tightly controlled herd on Chincoteaque off the coast of Virginia, I think.
yup
yep, they are all over the west coast.
Yes! Here in Nevada, wild horses roam free. I live in Dayton, NV, just 12 miles from the capital, Carson City, and we have many wild horses wandering free. The Bureau of Land Management just released a herd of 15 just on the edge of town. I believe that there are wild horses in most of the western states. Check out the Wild Horse preservation society.
yep there sure is east coast and west coast state's
yep, and i'll be adopting one as soon as i finish training my arab!

You bet. I have a herd right behind my house that I see all the time. Check out this site www.wildhorseandburro.blm.gov/
Yes. They are in Texas, Nevada, and Arizona. But they are trying to keep the population down because they eat so much. Also some live in Montana too. And in a lot of islands. Like some by cuba and one just off of Maryland.
Of course there are some are in Nevada and they roam free and some can be adopted. Also there are the chincotigue ponies in Maryland. You know that book Misty of Chincotigue well its a true story about the wild horses there. Every year they swim the ponies across the channel so they can take some for adoption. It is a very cool experience that I recommend everyone to go and see!!
Chincoteague Island VA has wild horses on the beach. We went there growing up and the horses run wild on the island right next to it called Assateague Island. Look it up online, it is really cool
Southern Missouri still has wild horses. Adopting one and breaking it? Good luck with that! Hope you have a good insurance policy! Your not messing with a stray dog!
Yes, absolutely. My parents live in southeast Idaho, and on their way to church each Sunday they drive up a long valley between mountain ranges and see wild horses on the plains and foothills. They say they see them often, and everyone in the valley knows they are wild. Nobody owns them, and they graze freely. Neat, huh?
heck yeah!
Technically, there are no true wild horses in the US. The only real wild horses left are the Przewalskis in Asia. The horses here in the US are descended from domestic horses therefore they are feral, not wild.
But anyway. There are tons of "wild" horses all over the country. The most famous being the Mustangs, which you will find spread across some of the western states. There's also the Kiger Mustangs, which I believe are found more in the northwest. Plus there are several wild ponies on islands on the east coast of the US... the Chincoteague ponies in Virginia are a huge tourist attraction (if you ever have a chance to go there, I highly recommend it.) There are a few more on islands in North Carolina's Outer Banks, and some more on Cumberland Island in Georgia.
You'll also find wild horses in Canada on Sable Island, and in the Bahamas on Abaco.
Yes. My cousin "adopted" a wild mustang from New Mexico or Nevada.
Yup and i own one. I adopted him 10 years ago as a yearling and he absolutely wonderful.
yes there are still wild horses here in the US
Mainly in Wyoming, Oklahoma, Nevada and some in California
What a wonderful question..yes there are. Central Oregon, Nevada, Arizona, Montana and Wyoming. That's all I know. These horses are truly one of Americas finest pieces of history that are still alive today. You should watch the movie Flicka. Its a great story.
Of course! They normally roam in the western area's. You could probably see them if you went to a special group. That's what i did once, they where beautiful. Although you definitely want to stay your distance!
there are also small horses off the barrier islands of north carloina
yes but i don't know where they r
yes i have one
