This really is heartbreaking.
About three years ago I lived in Reno,Nevada. Almost every morning on the way to take my son to school, we would see these beautiful wild mustangs.
One day, they were being "corraled" near his school. Many of the students heard about this,got up and walked out of class, and stood around the corral so as to not let them put any more horses in there.
These animals are so beautiful. To see them in "their" natural habitat is truely a sight to behold.
