Re: [RC] Wild Horses Letter in NY Times..on the mark - Sisu West Ranch

"....that claims that the wild horses are in fact the same genetically as those that evolved in the North America which calls into question the assumption that the wild horses are all feral...."
 
This does not change the fact that there were no horses or burros in North America in 1492.  All horses in N America are decended from horses raised and owned and transported to N America by persons.  Thus they are different than the native animals who got to N America by flying, walking or swimming.
 
By the way, I also consider the Ring Neck Pheasant to be different than a wild Turkey, even though both are regulated game species.
