Description
Australia has an estimated 300 000 feral horses, mainly in the extensive cattle-raising districts of the Northern Territory and Queensland. These horses are a complex management problem: they are widespread, often occur in relatively inaccessible country, are pests of agriculture and the environment, are a commercial resource and are an animal welfare concern. This book reviews the history of feral horses in Australia, their biology, the damage they cause, and past and current management methods.
