horses turned out

People are turning horses loose on reclaimed strip mines in eastern KY and have been for years and they do not own the land. Yet no one says anything.

Mike Maggard

Are you saying they are abandoning them? Or are they fencing in to keep them from going wild? What does the state or landowners say about it? Is this a big problem or just in a few places? Never heard this before. If they go wild then round them up and sell them. Open range mustangs.

So they are out there running with the elk?

horses

No fences. These properties have several thousand acres and they just run open range. Yes they are running with the elk and now fish & wildlife are making these owners remove them when they cross on wildlife management areas.
