Reply to comment by No-Neighborhood2152 in TIL the US federal government captures and sells excess wild horses to the public by MoistCoyote

Where my parents live it seems like everyone has a horse. Not as a beloved family pet, or to ride, or to work. Just to have.

You've never seen more horses standing listlessly in fields that are too small for them. No shelter in those fields. No other horses. Out of eyeline from the houses usually too.

I'd rather eat a horse than see those horses "live" like they do

Man I've seen tons of that. It's crazy. I always assumed horses were inherently expensive to care for. They don't look good though. I also saw a cow in a plus size dog house and a pen that was crazy.
