In the early 80s, I lived in central Queensland on a cattle and sheep station and tamed and trained wild horses. Our property was 112,000 acres. It is a rough and tough life but a beautiful one. I have many crazy stories as a new mother surviving the wilderness during my younger years.
As an American in the Southwest, I can totally relate to this video. We have deserts and areas that look remarkably similar to those in this video. While we seem to have quite a few donkey still wild in desert environments, it seems as though our horses are now in areas with better climates and resources for them. IDK if it happened through government intervention or if nature took its course. Perhaps many horses in the desert died and perhaps some managed to migrate to better suited climates, I'm not sure. I believe that Australia has a very diverse geography and climate as well, would it be possible to relocate or "push" the wild horses into areas of Australia that may be better suited for the horses and the environment itself? I am not that familiar with the situation so I'm just wondering? In the US we have the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) and they are tasked with maintaining the wild horses and burros, along with other things. The agency is surrounded by some controversy but that isn't the topic at the moment. The BLM rounds up horses due to overpopulation and holds auctions for them. Sometimes they end up going to slaughterhouses, etc. but they are discussing culling them in this video anyway. More and more they seem to be getting adopted and going to good homes. There are annual Wild Mustang Makeover competitions in which participants take home a wild Mustang and have 100 days or so to bring the Mustang from "Wild" to "Mild" so to speak. These great people have turned so many of these horses into animals that appear to have been domesticated and trained from the day they were born. You would never guess they were recently wild Mustangs. At the end of the competition all of the horses are auctioned off to raise money and bring awareness to the dire situation of these wild horses. Not sure if you have anything similar in Australia but as a horse lover I just wanted to mention it. Good luck and God bless. Extreme Mustang Makeover extrememustangmakeover.com/
Without horses. We would not be where we are today. They helped us to farm, transportation, even fire wagons. To kill them is wrong. They deserve much more respect.
@4:20 the horse was fine in the wild, they are free and have been for over 100 generations in this country. The animal is better off without the people. The horse had a family, now it will become one of the many sad, isolated animals, kept on properties by wealthy people, who think the animal needs them.
Culling should not be cruel. Management control of numbers is understandable but not at cost of cruelty. Slaughter houses are not the answer imo. They are cruel. 'Mustang makeover' challenges give these horses a new life in north america.
😂😅🤣 not laughing on killing and supporting it.... But it's a laugh on HYPOCRISY one just need to put own eyes carefully on plates they eat..... These horses don't belongs to natural habitant of Australia.
@@SamD999 imho it doesn't matter whether they are natural to Australia habitat. They are there. And they have been there for generations. What is important is how to control their numbers. I don't believe they are as destructive to the environment as people think. If anything like north America its about grazing on government land and big cattle ranches. The ranchers want horses gone so more free feed for their cattle. Horses are far less destructive to natural grasslands.
@@rezotydnic agreed what you said, and that's why I write hypocrisy because people are cutting Forest and jungles to get more and more grassland to produce more cow meat pig meat chicken and all but when it comes on dogs cats horses then the hypocrisy of life or a beautiful creature comes out. For me Life Is Life even it's a life of a chicken or a life of a horse or a lion or a cow or a pig should not be harvested for human consumption on top destruction of nature, people talk about global warming how many of those concerned person cut their meat and seafood from their diet? Seafood is a reason for 70% ocean pollution and it destroyed the natural habitant of sea creatures but then we have to make money let the Earth go to hell who cares I need my money.
So they can track them down to shoot them or to ship them to slaughter. Apparently at that time they're findable. But when it comes to darting them from a distance with fertility treatments, now the area is too vast???? Am I hearing this right?? I'm pulling my hair out at how absolutely stupid that logic is.
@TheResistance-il7ll I guess you have nothing to say about the statement I provided? Nothing to say about that huh? You're a monster if you think a bullet is the solution. How much did it cost to bring in multiple species of invasive animals Australia thought they could use to clean up their previous mess? And then deal with that? You just don't seem to get it.
Australia has the largest herds of feral animals in the world. These include camels, donkeys, goats, cattle, bison , pigs, deer, ostriches & horses . It is impossible and far to expensive to eradicate them . But already these ferals are captured or shot and exported overseas to middle east and europe and also sold locally. Which is one form of population control.
This is Really a Sad Tale of Long Term Pathetic Federal Governance. We are Doing Enormous Damage to the Australian Wild Life. Interestingly not one mention of the Death of Kangaroos, Goanas, Wallabies, Eagles, Echidnas, Parrots etc.
@3:00 They will have an african elephant situation on their hands, where they will find out that the horses are actually benefitting the landscape by bringing urine and manure into areas that it would otherwise be unable to reach and spreading seeds in their faeces, causing more forests to regrow. More life, creates more life. Life creates life They are eating native plants and spreading native seeds.
Australians need to read honestly their own history books: WHO did the great ride through the desert to Damascus in 1918? WHO captured the future oil fields for the British Empire in the Middle East? NO European bred horses could have ever achieved these great exploits, sweeping the Ottoman Empire away!!! WHO did it FOR and WITH their MATES? As an operating battlefield guide for Australian WW1 history I devour all their fantastic exploits...as a horse woman who buys and owns breeding mares for good money, I can only pray that more normal people are waking up to some state of awareness about THEIR PART in world history!!! Before you judge like couch potatoes PLEASE INVESTIGATE what ONLY AUSTRALIAN BORN HORSES COMBINED WITH THEIR MATES could achieve, have achieved and DIED FOR.
What hysterical nonsense. That's completely anthromorphising the animal. The horses did not serve the Ottoman Empire, they responded to stimuli with conditioned responses. They are not part of Australia's heritage, they're an introduced species. Many of the Southern Highland and Snowy Mountain brumbies are genetically thoroughbred because of racehorse dumping in the area.
Horses are not people. Like Stable Life said, they simply responded to commands from humans. They are invasive and destructive, they do not belong in our ecosystem, do not fit in in our food chain.
@@ADerpyReality ..? Australia is trying its best to make reconciliation for past mistakes. I treat Aboriginals like people, because that's what they are. What is your comment suggesting?
Being captured and taken to slaughter houses would be way harder on the horses than shooting them. I'm thinking that culling can be part of the answer, if done right. As long as horses to cull are carefully picked, and the meat don't go to waste. That said, capturing and taming others should also be part of the solution. Along with also considering other options to keep the population to a healthy level.
Nemrai I have shot them from a chopper...there is no way to harvest the meat because of the remote location and environment...it is very efficient and humane...the carcasses rot and get eaten by maggots and scavengers..the bones eventually break down....nobody is any the wiser...all the introduced herbivores are damaging the native environment....rangeland degradation is a huge problem in Australia and globally....too many people on the planet....sad
mic Potato true however if they are concerned about the controversy and well being of the animal, then they wouldn’t take them to a slaughterhouse if they knew how they are killed in those settings.
Bullshit government doesn't have to do pay them to do that feral pigs do more damage to property and livestock they have taken down lots of cattle and goats and horses and me and my parents have been working with horses snice was little and I have ridin a really horse that has protected since I was born he was our best and strongest horse yes he was a little hard to handle and get on but he still worked for me
Eathan Weyh oh no let’s just let the native species go extinct incase we hurt eathan’s feelings guys. He likes horses so let’s just let the horses trample and kill and eat all the native animals food.
I unfortunately support the killing for meat, keeps it in a chain of food. Horses are not indigenous to Australia so their plant life can't sustain the abuse it indoors..... However in Africa and China they have found a way to stop and regrow in areas of desertification this may also help in Australia outback and American west, this would create a plant life to help feed the growing population along with management
Unless you've worked in a slaughter house for horses ,only a fool would think it doesn't hurt the horse,highest levels of cruelty are in slaughter house,I know my husband use to be a horse dealer and meat dealer, slaughter isn't an option
Javier Pedroza definitely in very mild deserts seeing as fast temp changes can cause colic (and deserts have a lot of that) and the insane amount of water they drink daily
@@wegojim5124 Are you saying that Australians didn't cause any bad effects or affects on the natives ,but animals who were wrongly kidnapped & brought there !? 💔💜🥁🐉🎤💞
I know it's a lot more time and work.. But why not sterilize the appropriate number of mares to limit the herds growth rates and put tracking collars on the fertile mares so once a year they can be monitored for birth rates and if need be selected foals sterilized...
@@elizabethblackwell6242 Massive round ups.. Sterilize the old ones. Unfortunately most of the young Maybe 3/4 of the studs Put trackers on the fertile mares and fillies
@@jimh712 I was involved in a three year program using darted birth control. You need to be 5 to 15 metres from the horses to get the best shot with the dart gun and horses being smart know what's coming next year. Logistically it's expensive and not very practical. The foals die in the muster or get lost. Not sure what the solution is though. It's tricky.
Sterilizing a mare isn't like sterilizing a dog or a cat. Horses are very large animals, you'd need special equipment for it, and just doing the surgery would be a big risk.
As an american moved to Australia 7 years ago this really confuses me...wild mustangs seem to do fine in the US and aren't very destructive, so why are brumbies so destructive, to the point the government wants to cull them? Also I'm glad they're being broken in, makes me want to buy a horse if it wasn't so expensive and time induced
Australian soil is very different to many other parts of the world, it erodes quite easily and it not meant to be supporting hard hooved large animals like horses. It compacts the soil and basically destroys it to the point that nothing will grow on it. It is unfortunate as brumbies are a beautiful part of the landscape however they truly shouldn't be there and are causing a lot of damage by taking away the food of our native animals.
Dustin Geard Australia doesn’t have any native large animals, and what wildlife it has is all spread out across thousands of miles of open country. Not to mention, apart from kangaroos it doesn’t really have herd dwelling animals. The plant life isn’t used to large groups of animals moving through and eating everything in their path. The horses breed faster than the grass can grow back.
America has huge issues with Mustangs and for years had controversial fights between interest groups on how to manage herds. Many historical laws have been passed over centuries on their management. I remember reading as a young girl a novel about the establishment of the 'Wild Horse Annie Act' about Velma Johnston as a child contracting polio. I can highly recommend reading up about your own countries history of feral horse management and their current Bureau of Land Management (BLM) Practices.
Horses really do destroy lots and lots of environment. They eat all the vegetation and they especially desroy any wooded areas because they eat all the young trees and trample the ground. They destroy the environment and make it so much harder for native species.
The horse,the canetoad,the buffelo, the wild cattle,the goat,the donkey, the camel,and any other animal not mentioned have and are part and what makes the landscape. They are part of the country. For generations they have been born, and bred, and thrived in this country. They have adapted and become part of it. They are part of the folklore of modern australia. They belong here because they are part of it. Modern australia is not before the english nor white australia that ended in the 1960s. It is a multicultural nation of Chinese peoples,indian peoples ,African peoples, Vietnamese peoples,Arabic peoples,Afgan peoples, the many peoples and ethnic groups in the European region ,the Blackfellows or as others call them Aboriginals,the half castes and the half breeds of the peoples ,and all other peoples who have been here for generations, some longer than others, some who have been here less, others both. All call some part of the continent home. Why are there some clueless people telling white people to go home? Where is home for them? Unless they arrived recently from a country in Europe,they are of mixed heritage and have no home there. Australia is their home. What about half breeds? Where do they fit in? What about non European peoples? Where do they fit in? Are not we all human? Why must we allow racism to continue from ignorant people? Australia is home to all who live here not racism. It is the same with the animals. They do not belong elsewhere. This continent is their home. To anyone who wants argue by thing,"Their not native",ask yourself," Are you native too?"

There are horses that were bred specifically for the desert and are the oldest breed. They're Arabians, like that's no brainer shit. Like those horses were created in the middle east pre bible sooooo...... like their feet are literally designed to cut through the sand with as little friction as possible.

I hope someday it'll all more language friendly somehow !! The horses are causing destruction as they weren't native ! They wanna kill the horses !! And many including myself are against that !! The horses ,or any " non native" animals are kidnapped & taken to another foreign land !! So,it's not fair !! An Aboriginal man asked not to kill the horses ,either !! Also some suggested to Shipp them to Africa !! Or sanctuary places !!! I hope you'll can click the translation .💜🥁🐉🎤💞
It's hypocritical that humans see the horse as destructive, but not themselves. Assuming the Brumby is destructive, what rights do humans have to shoot them when we are far more destructive. The kangaroo that is native is also seen as having too high a population, so they are culled. This has happened however due to the lack of predators in Australia, which have been extinct thanks to yours truly. The dingo, which is the apex predator, and that is native, is also struggling to survive because "Australia" wants to get rid of them with poison. Australian's need to open their eyes. Saying "shoot them" is barbaric and does not put the welfare of the horse first at all. I don't know what the answer is, but I'm aware of my impact on the environment and do my best to minimise my impact. That is the first step.
Hunt them, as any other animal. Horse meat is really good. There is no natural predators there big enough to deal with them, and if you introduce one it would seriously affect native wildlife.
Have a heart !! I really dislike mean comments lacking any compassion ,or people like you !! I don't hate you ,though ,but pitty you ! The horses are the victims because they were forcibly taken away from their original land & brought to a foreign place in the 1st place !!! That's cruel enough ,but now after 200 years later ,they wanna kill the poor horses !! ? Like someone else pointed out that taking that long to devastate the eco system doesn't seem to fit !! Something isn't adding up !!! There should be more stories/ facts than that !!! Killing isn't a solution ,it shouldn't !! The humans did this !!! They should be accountable for what they did !!

@@spark_6710 How dumb are you? Humans are a mammal. An omnivore that gets braindamage from a pure vegetarian diet. So without eating pills, we HAVE to have some meat in our diet.. Whats wrong with eating horses? If we can eat snakes, insects, whales, cows, we surely can eat horses too. Horsemeat is actually really good, I have eaten horse and have no compunctions about doing that again. All life MUST eat or compete to death with other life to live. The rabbits in Australia is classic example on how fast something becomes untenable in nature if it isn't constantly hunted.... And since we are meateaters, we can do it..
@@iwillhaveyourorder5174 no we don't we are in a debt of hundreds of millions to other countries. Unfortunately the government cant afford to spend money on ferel animals as their first priority is looking after Australians peoplw(they do a shit job at that anyway).
I love horses to death...But if the numbers become problematic they really do need to be managed, food is always becoming more and more scarce on this dying Earth. Something that doesn't click in the small minded brains of human kind.
Food is not scarce on this earth lol. And this planet is not dying. While I agree that if the population is too high it has to be managed, it just wanted to correct some things.

Well... I was laughing at that. For our horses here, the landscape on the clip looks like jungle. I have seen hoarse surrounded by nothing but dust and temp reaches easily 45-49 c on summer.

They are desert horses but humans have interrupted their bloodline and made it weak in order to get the Arabian horse they want; a horse that has such a small face that it can't breathe through its nostrils properly anymore
@Robin Tapsell silly if their is ant civilization and we live in harmony with nature their will be plenty for everyone ... we all come from the earth and and are related
@Robin Tapsell ANIMALS still no harmony we are the one the live in this mechanical nightmare people are a part of natural power we need to remember gods instructions the animals do
They are not the same as they were hundreds of years ago. Humans have selected specific traits from the Arabians and, if turned out in the wild, would have way lessof a chance of survival than their ancestors.
It's important to remember that the Australian brumby is for the most part dumped racehorses. If the racing industry were more responsible in what it euphemistically refers to as "wastage" there'd be a lot fewer feral horses in Australia.
we have similar problems with horses that we have with cats. Their owners and supporters are prepared to give up our ecosystems for their touchy feeliness

Why the government, with farmers and the people couldn't found a great solution, because they see the wild horses as a annoying evil that makes them the farmland dispute. It would be better the farmers would intervene with the horses on their farm, for example for lighter jobs, save fuel or ride for leisure, so that even money could be made. Once upon a time, the horse 🐴 was the best friend of the people considering what this venerable animal had done for us humans and still brings much pleasure on the farm and in the recreational area while riding, this is fun for many children. For families with children, this would make an offer such as farm holiday's that would be a good side business and would bring the consumers closer to the farmer who produces their food on the farm. Please take care of the lovely horses! 🍀🐞👍🐨🇦🇺
4:25 If she would just think a little more she would realise that that is nature. Also these horses look fantastic. I can't imagine them having trouble finding feed.
How do you feel about canetoads? They kill wildlife and vegetation. Is the horse excused because its domesticated? Both creatures feel and are not doing it intentionally as well as both being introduced. More humane options cost money and our government doesn't really care about protecting the native ENDAGERED wildlife as well as the horses destroying them. Obviously the horses numbers don't match up to a canetoads but still. The same stuff happens to foxes and other introduced species. Horses trample and consume vegetation and water that smaller animals cant compete with.
Rocky Models go travel to the desert, get access to every property, spend millions of dollars and catch them all then. Oh wait you won’t. Until then keep dreaming
We used them and like all man does, when he chooses to abuse them. Be kind to them and let people take them and train them and or put out a good hardy quality stallion with the mares and breed a better type. I bet you IF THE ABORIGINAL SAID they recognized them as part of their history. They WOULD BE PROTECTED!!!!!!!!
I understand the 2 sides of the story being shown in these documentaries. Whether it's saving the Brumbies of Au. or the wild mustangs of the US. There needs to be a balance to accomplish both. Preserving the land that sustains the animals living on it. I truly feel more has to be done to have it come to be done. Both sides have to be willing to meet common ground. It really comes down to how much money every government is willing either to pay (from taxpayer's dollars) and out of their capitalistic gorging pockets to put into realistic implementing thought out ideas into action. Here in the US politicians and lobbyists gain access to millions of dollars every year they work out together for "ear marked money", and other forms of money-making corruption being made amongst them. All the billions being funneled into the security bank boxes and offshore accounts of these individuals, re-direct the ill-gotten gains into re-pairing or putting in fixtures that saves both sides of the problem of saving the National Park in AU. and BLM land in the US for wild horses. I read about the erosion of the land in Yellow Stone Nat. Park because the elk, deer, bison were over grazing the grass, shrubs and trees that grew along the riverbanks. Reason being is that they had killed off the all the wolves that kept Nature in balance. So, they re-introduced 2 pairs of wolves into the park. Forest Ecologists immediately noticed the land began to change, especially along the riverbanks. The over grazing of Elk had decimated the trees, (Cottonwoods, Aspens, Populares) but enter the wolves and the Elk were constantly being moved these plants, grasses and trees came back. Especially along riverbanks, giving back the banks stabilization. So, since the largest Apex animal that AU. has is the Dingoes. Which are not capable of hunting horses to keep nature in balance like wolves. ( Unless releasing 2 pairs of largest crosses of Dingo hybrids with pure Alpha male dingoes to purify the blood line again. Getting a new larger generation of Dingoes.) if that not a possible solution, I can only think that horse population has to be controlled by humans. As humanely as possible. And I think the hunting should be by the indigenous people (Aboriginals). To feed the poorer families throughout the country. No money-making profits, just a culling of the herds each year to maintain a number that all animals in AU park can maintain a healthy ecosystem. And CA, put in underground accesses so that migrating mountain lions, deer trying to cross busy sections of highways, stopped being killed by passing traffic. So maybe, building some wide log bridges at the more often crossed riverbanks by the brumbies, be put into place, with some healthy sized trees, shrubs planted on either side of the wide bridges, and to keep the horses from damaging them as they cross, put a fence line to restrict the horses gaining access to cross at those areas. and put a layer of river rocks along the bottom edge of the banks on either side of the bridge to help support any horse that may occasionally get through a broken fence line. Whereas the wolves are the National Parks and forest in the US stewards, the Au. Park employees and the Territories people (political) are going have to become pro-active labor-intensive Park Stewards to make sure all the built-in systems they are establishing going forward will continue to keep the balance. I also think with trying to introduce the crossways, re-seeding heavily with (native, heirloom seeds. NO GMO's) grasses, plants, flowers, shrubs and trees along the riverbanks before Winter's first snow for a good Spring growth, but in the valley, mountains. Maybe even try dropping hay in the mountains for 2-3 Winters. Keeping the horses out of the Valley floor until Spring. It can be done, if the greed over money can be dealt with. No going to be easy fights of getting those individuals to let go of their ill-gotten wealth to fix the problem. And making it a non-profit system on donations or tax breaks for those wealthy to claim their donation back...not going to be it. Clean (all countries) house and start putting every single penny of illegal monies back into fixing all Earth's problems.
In Africa we have enough room, need and desire to keep horses wild as they are .just ship them over and stop this curling madness. animals know how to manage the environment better than humans. only humans can overgraze animals .animals on their own they keep moving and won't feed where feed is slim. understand the concept of "live and let live"
You don't understand. These horses are destroying the environment and there are no natural predators in Australia to control this. They were brought here by humans thus thisproblem must be solved by humans. Australia can't handle another invasive species on their hands.
@Rich Ratch thank you. I would however ask you to stop reading books based on poorly done research with a lot of assumptions and go to the wild and understand these animals you will realize over grazing requires a human hand and that all animals feed on the move naturally to ensure their sustainability .Its a survival mechanism for all grazers and browsers.
@Shivam Joshi That is the point ...In Namibia there has been a hyena issue even with domestic animals way before the horses came.If you find a native from northern Namibia they all have a hyena story to tell.Horses wouldn't be a problem in Africa simply because the ecosystem is versatile and has the capability to handle itself and to your surprise all environmental problems in Africa are human related. Shivam these people are just blood thirsty and choose to kill with the first chance they get .Culling only works for animals that are spreading diseases otherwise we as humans ought to do better.Why aren't they culling the cane-toads in such a way if its the environment they care about.
@Shivam Joshi horses are not local animals to North America. They were brought here by the spainards. Indians saw them for the first time. Then started learning and breeding them for themselves. Which actually caused the Indian culture to change and wars to happen between different tribes that would of been impossible without horses. Anyways, horses could easily live in Africa. The herds would be bigger due to more predators same as zebras. Zebras are smaller and dumber.
They developed from domesticated horses from different properties. Different breeds etc the exact same way that American wild horses did. Slightly Different genetics but same they went down the same path in a different geography
No time to go into it, but call the less “attractive” ones, held the young attractive ones, leave a few highly attractive studs. Do the same for the mares. Then you’ll have a romantic and more marketable sound animal that’ll fetch a better price than meat. Imagine a buyer saying, “I’ve been fortunate to be able and approved to purchase a genuine registered Kimberly horse”..... I dunno, it’s just a thought. I think in the US a certain line or two of mustangs is marketed. (But folks are breeding them which takes away the possibility of adoption from some feral ones still running ‘wild’ in herds.) The Aussie government could make it illegal to breed them. They could set up and maintain the sole “registry” of them. So you can buy a desirable Kimberly, but to get another you can’t breed a registered one, you can only buy another Kimberly from the Aussie government, or buy one via transfer of ownership from another Kimberly owner. These ideas could work I think. The problem of over population, little to no market value, and lack of attractiveness, lack of perceived rarity (desirability) are solved. So is the problem of increasing population in the wild. So, also too then, is the problem of the poor optics and difficult public relations resulting from regular and constant large culls.
These animals have been here since 1788. 200+ years! If they were going to do any real "devastating" damage how much more time do we have before it's considered too late? Something tells me it's just not that critical. Inconclusive data.
Governments are more worried about the erosion of soil and some plants in the desert, than they are about eroding the culture of the entire nation with waves of third world immigration. Civilization is more important than a few desert plant species.
@@snozzlehead92 he knows exactly what Australia is worried about he’s simply arguing the truth of the matter. It’s been over 200 years since wild horses were in Australia, how long does it take to do damage?

Don't kill or eat , make it a profitable business by selling in different country . I am sure the world will buy it for sports as they are strong and stubern
^^^ THIS! they're good horses, especially the wild-caught ones. they're sturdy, sure on their feet and well-suited to just about any climate (depending on where you catch them from) and generally have pretty good confirmation. in fact, the brumby lines are less inbred than most thoroughbred racehorse pedigrees, so that makes defects less likely. they're also very intelligent, trusting and loyal horses - as shown in the video, they bond closely with their rider by the third day!
yaikhom pritam go travel to the desert, get access to every property, spend tens of thousands of dollars if not hundreds of thousands and catch them yourself. You people have no idea on the logistics, it’s not as simple as “ just catch them “. Have a look at the size of the desert In Australia. Barely any access, extremely hot, no water, hard to drive in. And imagine how much it’d cost to transport hundreds or thousands of horses. Want the simple solution? $2 for a single bullet to deal with each horse. Or your way is probably $5,000 for each horse.
Research has been done. Culling can be good. We in America roundup and auctions. The BLM has done culling that was controversial. Management is necessary
culling inst a good option they people are the reason they are there now people want to kill them how does that help the well fair of the horse by killing it? rather round them up like in america and challenge people to tame them sell them to countries but killing them is cruel
The BLM isn't doing feral horses in the US any favors. They have 40K of them standing in open dirt corrals eating their heads off with very few takers wanting to deal with trying to tame them. I assume soon the government will lose interest in feeding 40K unbroke horses and they will disappear. Slowly, but rounding adult horses up for sale has been a losing proposition from the start and some of them have started to disappear already if you follow the news stories on the issue. If people want all feral horses classified as "wild animals" and running loose then, sorry, the best way to control the population is to treat feral horses as game animals and sponsor a regular hunting season for them. The horses run free for 50 weeks a year and are hunted for 2 weeks, just like other wild game animals. I have no problem with that idea but there are those who go into a raving fit at the very suggestion of hunting as a means of population control. They want feral horses to be classified as pet animals (they aren't), endangered (they aren't), domestic (they are domestic animals and should be rounded up as such), wild (they are feral), a natural part of American history (that's baloney) and illegal to mess with in any manner (which is ridiculous). The horses bumming around loose in the US are in the same category as feral hogs, feral cats, feral dogs, feral cattle. If they were born in a barn and raised in a paddock you'd say they were generic mutt horses of no real value but just because they were born out in the open and are "clearskin" they are to be highly honored? GIVE ME A BREAK.
@@justinduke8135 I dont live in Oz but large companies and farmers could donate feed and water in the drought months. Dig a well at least so they drink something. I see even the koalas are screaming out for water to passerbys. Poor things.
You do know they have been in a drought for almost 3 years now right the big farms and corporations are trying to keep there own alive and there government is useless
@@justinduke8135 Hi Justin. A bit of water and some feed when times are tough seem like a small price to pay to keep these noble animals alive. Just because they are not needed as beasts of burdens anymore doesnt mean they should starve to death. The horse and mankind go way back together, in war, on farms. down the mines etc. They have paid there dues, they deserve better.
Now that is not humane or realistic. It would only encourage larger and larger herds and more and more starvation and drought. They are beautiful, they are hardy, but they are invasive to Australia, meaning they are outside of the natural food chain and will over run the land very quickly without any natural predators. They will starve and die of drought if we do not find effective ways to keep their numbers in check. We are their natural predator. I personally vote for sterilization. Would work very quickly and after a few years consecutively, would only need doing once every few years.
Brumby will run for mile for water and run back at least 50 killer meters If we tuck one of our horses to Australia it would die within a week great video
How is sterilisation not an option?? A mare’s gestation is 11 months, nearly a year, and there is access to many helicopters and GPS, but it’s hard to find the stallions?! Boggles my mind. Sterilise the young colts and stallions, leave the absolute best conformed entires, round up the rest, cull anything old, injured or badly conformed, use the rest for Equine Therapy, (get the local kids to help handle them!) and re home some! Surely we can come to a solution!

The manure produced by these horses will definitly fertilize the lands and the quality of the soil will imporve in the long run. On the other hand, It would be a better idea to deport the human colonizers to their countries of origin (Britian, Ireland and so on..) and let the aboriginal Australians live peacefully in a cleaner environment.
@@kmansfield8770 in 2019 almost the entire of central desert australia was underwater from foods, this happens every few years so yes combine that with horse manure, over decades the area scientifically should become more fertile but then there’s the devastation horse hooves cause to the ground but if they keep moving (moving herds like zebra in Africa help grass grow) the country will regenerate but if they stay in the one spot and over eat, they ground will become eroded and dusty.

Veronica Brenes dingoes couldn’t take down a horse. Not sure they could out run a desert brumby either. I like the idea, definitely need more dingoes or for them to be protected.
build as many water holes as possible and hope for one good rain. that will really change the landscape altogether. do not blame on the horses as they cannot speak. if you speak can you do? all the owner do not cultivate the land but lived off the land. over time the land gets destroyed. see the problem.
In the early 80s, I lived in central Queensland on a cattle and sheep station and tamed and trained wild horses. Our property was 112,000 acres. It is a rough and tough life but a beautiful one. I have many crazy stories as a new mother surviving the wilderness during my younger years.
As an American in the Southwest, I can totally relate to this video. We have deserts and areas that look remarkably similar to those in this video. While we seem to have quite a few donkey still wild in desert environments, it seems as though our horses are now in areas with better climates and resources for them. IDK if it happened through government intervention or if nature took its course. Perhaps many horses in the desert died and perhaps some managed to migrate to better suited climates, I'm not sure. I believe that Australia has a very diverse geography and climate as well, would it be possible to relocate or "push" the wild horses into areas of Australia that may be better suited for the horses and the environment itself? I am not that familiar with the situation so I'm just wondering? In the US we have the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) and they are tasked with maintaining the wild horses and burros, along with other things. The agency is surrounded by some controversy but that isn't the topic at the moment. The BLM rounds up horses due to overpopulation and holds auctions for them. Sometimes they end up going to slaughterhouses, etc. but they are discussing culling them in this video anyway. More and more they seem to be getting adopted and going to good homes. There are annual Wild Mustang Makeover competitions in which participants take home a wild Mustang and have 100 days or so to bring the Mustang from "Wild" to "Mild" so to speak. These great people have turned so many of these horses into animals that appear to have been domesticated and trained from the day they were born. You would never guess they were recently wild Mustangs. At the end of the competition all of the horses are auctioned off to raise money and bring awareness to the dire situation of these wild horses. Not sure if you have anything similar in Australia but as a horse lover I just wanted to mention it. Good luck and God bless. Extreme Mustang Makeover

Without horses. We would not be where we are today. They helped us to farm, transportation, even fire wagons. To kill them is wrong. They deserve much more respect.
@5:30 animals drinking from watering holes increases the size of the watering holes.
@4:20 the horse was fine in the wild, they are free and have been for over 100 generations in this country. The animal is better off without the people. The horse had a family, now it will become one of the many sad, isolated animals, kept on properties by wealthy people, who think the animal needs them.
Culling should not be cruel. Management control of numbers is understandable but not at cost of cruelty. Slaughter houses are not the answer imo. They are cruel. 'Mustang makeover' challenges give these horses a new life in north america.
Thank you for your kind thoughts
😂😅🤣 not laughing on killing and supporting it.... But it's a laugh on HYPOCRISY one just need to put own eyes carefully on plates they eat..... These horses don't belongs to natural habitant of Australia.
@@SamD999 imho it doesn't matter whether they are natural to Australia habitat. They are there. And they have been there for generations.
What is important is how to control their numbers. I don't believe they are as destructive to the environment as people think. If anything like north America its about grazing on government land and big cattle ranches. The ranchers want horses gone so more free feed for their cattle. Horses are far less destructive to natural grasslands.
@@rezotydnic agreed what you said, and that's why I write hypocrisy because people are cutting Forest and jungles to get more and more grassland to produce more cow meat pig meat chicken and all but when it comes on dogs cats horses then the hypocrisy of life or a beautiful creature comes out.
For me Life Is Life even it's a life of a chicken or a life of a horse or a lion or a cow or a pig should not be harvested for human consumption on top destruction of nature, people talk about global warming how many of those concerned person cut their meat and seafood from their diet?
Seafood is a reason for 70% ocean pollution and it destroyed the natural habitant of sea creatures but then we have to make money let the Earth go to hell who cares I need my money.
Lindos cavalos eles nos dão uma satisfação de liberdade.....
So they can track them down to shoot them or to ship them to slaughter. Apparently at that time they're findable. But when it comes to darting them from a distance with fertility treatments, now the area is too vast???? Am I hearing this right?? I'm pulling my hair out at how absolutely stupid that logic is.
@TheResistance-il7ll I guess you have nothing to say about the statement I provided? Nothing to say about that huh? You're a monster if you think a bullet is the solution. How much did it cost to bring in multiple species of invasive animals Australia thought they could use to clean up their previous mess? And then deal with that? You just don't seem to get it.
THIS FILM DID NOT SHOW THOUSANDS OF HORSES IN THOSE FIELDS
exactly in estimation it could even be 100 horses in 1000 acres
Sort of a metaphor to many horse not enough food and land same can be said for humans and over population
Australia has the largest herds of feral animals in the world. These include camels, donkeys, goats, cattle, bison , pigs, deer, ostriches & horses . It is impossible and far to expensive to eradicate them . But already these ferals are captured or shot and exported overseas to middle east and europe and also sold locally. Which is one form of population control.
There aren't any wild ostriches in Australia😂

You simply catch and tame the horses rather than just kill them sell them it is a good breed of horse
and who’s going to tame half a million horses?
Some need to be culled.
Australians need to read honestly their own history books: WHO did the great ride through the desert to Damascus in 1918? WHO captured the future oil fields for the British Empire in the Middle East? NO European bred horses could have ever achieved these great exploits, sweeping the Ottoman Empire away!!! WHO did it FOR and WITH their MATES? As an operating battlefield guide for Australian WW1 history I devour all their fantastic exploits...as a horse woman who buys and owns breeding mares for good money, I can only pray that more normal people are waking up to some state of awareness about THEIR PART in world history!!! Before you judge like couch potatoes PLEASE INVESTIGATE what ONLY AUSTRALIAN BORN HORSES COMBINED WITH THEIR MATES could achieve, have achieved and DIED FOR.
What hysterical nonsense. That's completely anthromorphising the animal. The horses did not serve the Ottoman Empire, they responded to stimuli with conditioned responses. They are not part of Australia's heritage, they're an introduced species. Many of the Southern Highland and Snowy Mountain brumbies are genetically thoroughbred because of racehorse dumping in the area.
Horses are not people. Like Stable Life said, they simply responded to commands from humans. They are invasive and destructive, they do not belong in our ecosystem, do not fit in in our food chain.
@@athernaut7939 Treat the Aboriginals like people then.
@@ADerpyReality ..? Australia is trying its best to make reconciliation for past mistakes. I treat Aboriginals like people, because that's what they are. What is your comment suggesting?
And don't forget that at the end of the campaign all those horses were shot. Not part of your myth but that is what happened and what had to happen.
Being captured and taken to slaughter houses would be way harder on the horses than shooting them. I'm thinking that culling can be part of the answer, if done right. As long as horses to cull are carefully picked, and the meat don't go to waste. That said, capturing and taming others should also be part of the solution. Along with also considering other options to keep the population to a healthy level.
Nemrai I have shot them from a chopper...there is no way to harvest the meat because of the remote location and environment...it is very efficient and humane...the carcasses rot and get eaten by maggots and scavengers..the bones eventually break down....nobody is any the wiser...all the introduced herbivores are damaging the native environment....rangeland degradation is a huge problem in Australia and globally....too many people on the planet....sad
mic Potato true however if they are concerned about the controversy and well being of the animal, then they wouldn’t take them to a slaughterhouse if they knew how they are killed in those settings.
"""One day oil sucks and we back on horses back"""" , just mind this words.

Eathan Weyh oh no let’s just let the native species go extinct incase we hurt eathan’s feelings guys. He likes horses so let’s just let the horses trample and kill and eat all the native animals food.
@Robin Tapsellyeah blame a big dumb simple minded animal because it's clumsy and not knowing what it is doing
Is it possible that we can keep them at home to tame?
I unfortunately support the killing for meat, keeps it in a chain of food. Horses are not indigenous to Australia so their plant life can't sustain the abuse it indoors..... However in Africa and China they have found a way to stop and regrow in areas of desertification this may also help in Australia outback and American west, this would create a plant life to help feed the growing population along with management
Exactly. Many people don't seem to understand how much these animals hurt the vegetation.
Unless you've worked in a slaughter house for horses ,only a fool would think it doesn't hurt the horse,highest levels of cruelty are in slaughter house,I know my husband use to be a horse dealer and meat dealer, slaughter isn't an option

There weren't ever established as wild bands of horses though, they were Bedouin horses kept alive by travelling in caravans with people.
Why not sell the horses or let the private sector come and help. A lot of countries would want to buy them.
If they are having more Ferral horses then why don't they SELL TO OTHER COUNTRIES AND SANCTUARIES. ITs worth in MILLIONS, will generate good Revenue.
I know it's a lot more time and work..
But why not sterilize the appropriate number of mares to limit the herds growth rates and put tracking collars on the fertile mares so once a year they can be monitored for birth rates and if need be selected foals sterilized...
It's tricky because how can you find every mare, every breeding season and implant the birth control with a feral population.
@@elizabethblackwell6242
Massive round ups..
Sterilize the old ones.
Unfortunately most of the young
Maybe 3/4 of the studs
Put trackers on the fertile mares and fillies
@@jimh712 I was involved in a three year program using darted birth control. You need to be 5 to 15 metres from the horses to get the best shot with the dart gun and horses being smart know what's coming next year. Logistically it's expensive and not very practical. The foals die in the muster or get lost. Not sure what the solution is though. It's tricky.
Sterilizing a mare isn't like sterilizing a dog or a cat. Horses are very large animals, you'd need special equipment for it, and just doing the surgery would be a big risk.
Sterilize the males
As an american moved to Australia 7 years ago this really confuses me...wild mustangs seem to do fine in the US and aren't very destructive, so why are brumbies so destructive, to the point the government wants to cull them? Also I'm glad they're being broken in, makes me want to buy a horse if it wasn't so expensive and time induced
Wrong. Go talk any Nevada stockman or someone whose had a horse go through the windshield.
Australian soil is very different to many other parts of the world, it erodes quite easily and it not meant to be supporting hard hooved large animals like horses. It compacts the soil and basically destroys it to the point that nothing will grow on it. It is unfortunate as brumbies are a beautiful part of the landscape however they truly shouldn't be there and are causing a lot of damage by taking away the food of our native animals.
Dustin Geard
Australia doesn’t have any native large animals, and what wildlife it has is all spread out across thousands of miles of open country. Not to mention, apart from kangaroos it doesn’t really have herd dwelling animals. The plant life isn’t used to large groups of animals moving through and eating everything in their path. The horses breed faster than the grass can grow back.
America has huge issues with Mustangs and for years had controversial fights between interest groups on how to manage herds. Many historical laws have been passed over centuries on their management. I remember reading as a young girl a novel about the establishment of the 'Wild Horse Annie Act' about Velma Johnston as a child contracting polio. I can highly recommend reading up about your own countries history of feral horse management and their current Bureau of Land Management (BLM) Practices.
Horses really do destroy lots and lots of environment. They eat all the vegetation and they especially desroy any wooded areas because they eat all the young trees and trample the ground. They destroy the environment and make it so much harder for native species.
The horse,the canetoad,the buffelo, the wild cattle,the goat,the donkey, the camel,and any other animal not mentioned have and are part and what makes the landscape. They are part of the country. For generations they have been born, and bred, and thrived in this country. They have adapted and become part of it. They are part of the folklore of modern australia. They belong here because they are part of it. Modern australia is not before the english nor white australia that ended in the 1960s. It is a multicultural nation of Chinese peoples,indian peoples ,African peoples, Vietnamese peoples,Arabic peoples,Afgan peoples, the many peoples and ethnic groups in the European region ,the Blackfellows or as others call them Aboriginals,the half castes and the half breeds of the peoples ,and all other peoples who have been here for generations, some longer than others, some who have been here less, others both. All call some part of the continent home. Why are there some clueless people telling white people to go home? Where is home for them? Unless they arrived recently from a country in Europe,they are of mixed heritage and have no home there. Australia is their home. What about half breeds? Where do they fit in? What about non European peoples? Where do they fit in?
Are not we all human? Why must we allow racism to continue from ignorant people? Australia is home to all who live here not racism.
It is the same with the animals. They do not belong elsewhere. This continent is their home.

It's hypocritical that humans see the horse as destructive, but not themselves. Assuming the Brumby is destructive, what rights do humans have to shoot them when we are far more destructive. The kangaroo that is native is also seen as having too high a population, so they are culled. This has happened however due to the lack of predators in Australia, which have been extinct thanks to yours truly. The dingo, which is the apex predator, and that is native, is also struggling to survive because "Australia" wants to get rid of them with poison. Australian's need to open their eyes. Saying "shoot them" is barbaric and does not put the welfare of the horse first at all. I don't know what the answer is, but I'm aware of my impact on the environment and do my best to minimise my impact. That is the first step.
Humans cause climate change and they worry about those horses eating too much plants.
@@eva-maria7066 yeah its stupid and so what if they do? It doesn't matter they shouldn't be shot or killed in that manner it's BARBARIC

@Robin Tapsell systems of authority got us in to this mess and we have to get out together because of greed and we fell for material cunfort
@Robin Tapsell I never spoke of killing anyone we can live
(There is no natural desert horses) What about the Arabian horse ?
Greg donelson Yup, the Arabian breed originated in the Arabian Peninsula. Same thing popped into my head.
They are not the same as they were hundreds of years ago. Humans have selected specific traits from the Arabians and, if turned out in the wild, would have way lessof a chance of survival than their ancestors.
They were bred to be domesticated, and would not be able to live on their own
I would love to own one of this breed I live in the desert horse
You live in a horse?
@@Robert-ry6xe Lol. 😆You know what she meant ! 💜🥁🐉🎤💞
It's important to remember that the Australian brumby is for the most part dumped racehorses. If the racing industry were more responsible in what it euphemistically refers to as "wastage" there'd be a lot fewer feral horses in Australia.
Incorrect. By the way I dont like the racing industry.
@@jaywillelec It's correct. The Southern Highlands populations are about 70% thoroughbred.
Sou paixonado por cavalo e cachorro!!!!muito lindo!!!!!Sou paixonado por cavalo e cachorro!!!!muito lindo!!!!!
we have similar problems with horses that we have with cats. Their owners and supporters are prepared to give up our ecosystems for their touchy feeliness
Have a heart !!! It's easy to blame the innocent = animals who never went there ,or even asked to be there ,but to be brought there in the 1st place !! By careless / irresponsible human beings !! Then,they don't take the responsibility ( bring them back to where they belong !! ) for the silly CRUEL vicious circle ,but to blame 'em for it in the name of everything & kill them !!! Heartless !!! 💔💜🥁🐉🎤💞
spot on. this comment section is full of it.
dead animal is not waste, dead animals feed the soil for plants.
True ! I just hate humans way of thinking ," if they're gonna die ,then use 'em ,too " mentality / concept !! They aren't our tools ,or slaves !! They aren't things !! They are living creatures & their lives belong to 'em ,not to us !! 💜🥁🐉🎤💞
Why the government, with farmers and the people couldn't found a great solution, because they see the wild horses as a annoying evil that makes them the farmland dispute. It would be better the farmers would intervene with the horses on their farm, for example for lighter jobs, save fuel or ride for leisure, so that even money could be made. Once upon a time, the horse 🐴 was the best friend of the people considering what this venerable animal had done for us humans and still brings much pleasure on the farm and in the recreational area while riding, this is fun for many children. For families with children, this would make an offer such as farm holiday's that would be a good side business and would bring the consumers closer to the farmer who produces their food on the farm. Please take care of the lovely horses! 🍀🐞👍🐨🇦🇺
I love horses
But they were introduced to Australia in 1788 according to internet info..
Correct.
What an awesome sight!!! A true survivalist these Wild Brumbies! I say they are true blue Aussies!
anonymous patriot Sad really that this was allowed to happen. We cannot let the left continue with their false narrative!
The fuck? If they looked disgusting like Cane Toads you'd probably be all for knockin em on the head. Would you say the same about foxes?
You're a dingus! I suppose you reckon you 'love Australia' eh?
Beautiful.
Destructive as fuck.
4:25 If she would just think a little more she would realise that that is nature. Also these horses look fantastic. I can't imagine them having trouble finding feed.
Can any Australian tell me if these horses can withstand the climate of Chennai?
Me encanta los caballos salvajes
I don’t consider killing these beautiful horses as an option, they deserve a second chance and should not be left to be eaten or rot,
How do you feel about canetoads? They kill wildlife and vegetation. Is the horse excused because its domesticated? Both creatures feel and are not doing it intentionally as well as both being introduced. More humane options cost money and our government doesn't really care about protecting the native ENDAGERED wildlife as well as the horses destroying them. Obviously the horses numbers don't match up to a canetoads but still. The same stuff happens to foxes and other introduced species. Horses trample and consume vegetation and water that smaller animals cant compete with.
You can always donate money if you’re really interested.
Rocky Models go travel to the desert, get access to every property, spend millions of dollars and catch them all then. Oh wait you won’t. Until then keep dreaming
we keep 300 horses in the wild the rest are given to farms and to the outback
We used them and like all man does, when he chooses to abuse them. Be kind to them and let people take them and train them and or put out a good hardy quality stallion with the mares and breed a better type. I bet you IF THE ABORIGINAL SAID they recognized them as part of their history. They WOULD BE PROTECTED!!!!!!!!
Like the dingoes?
I understand the 2 sides of the story being shown in these documentaries. Whether it's saving the Brumbies of Au. or the wild mustangs of the US. There needs to be a balance to accomplish both. Preserving the land that sustains the animals living on it. I truly feel more has to be done to have it come to be done. Both sides have to be willing to meet common ground. It really comes down to how much money every government is willing either to pay (from taxpayer's dollars) and out of their capitalistic gorging pockets to put into realistic implementing thought out ideas into action. Here in the US politicians and lobbyists gain access to millions of dollars every year they work out together for "ear marked money", and other forms of money-making corruption being made amongst them. All the billions being funneled into the security bank boxes and offshore accounts of these individuals, re-direct the ill-gotten gains into re-pairing or putting in fixtures that saves both sides of the problem of saving the National Park in AU. and BLM land in the US for wild horses. I read about the erosion of the land in Yellow Stone Nat. Park because the elk, deer, bison were over grazing the grass, shrubs and trees that grew along the riverbanks. Reason being is that they had killed off the all the wolves that kept Nature in balance. So, they re-introduced 2 pairs of wolves into the park. Forest Ecologists immediately noticed the land began to change, especially along the riverbanks. The over grazing of Elk had decimated the trees, (Cottonwoods, Aspens, Populares) but enter the wolves and the Elk were constantly being moved these plants, grasses and trees came back. Especially along riverbanks, giving back the banks stabilization. So, since the largest Apex animal that AU. has is the Dingoes. Which are not capable of hunting horses to keep nature in balance like wolves. ( Unless releasing 2 pairs of largest crosses of Dingo hybrids with pure Alpha male dingoes to purify the blood line again. Getting a new larger generation of Dingoes.) if that not a possible solution, I can only think that horse population has to be controlled by humans. As humanely as possible. And I think the hunting should be by the indigenous people (Aboriginals). To feed the poorer families throughout the country. No money-making profits, just a culling of the herds each year to maintain a number that all animals in AU park can maintain a healthy ecosystem.
And CA, put in underground accesses so that migrating mountain lions, deer trying to cross busy sections of highways, stopped being killed by passing traffic. So maybe, building some wide log bridges at the more often crossed riverbanks by the brumbies, be put into place, with some healthy sized trees, shrubs planted on either side of the wide bridges, and to keep the horses from damaging them as they cross, put a fence line to restrict the horses gaining access to cross at those areas. and put a layer of river rocks along the bottom edge of the banks on either side of the bridge to help support any horse that may occasionally get through a broken fence line. Whereas the wolves are the National Parks and forest in the US stewards, the Au. Park employees and the Territories people (political) are going have to become pro-active labor-intensive Park Stewards to make sure all the built-in systems they are establishing going forward will continue to keep the balance. I also think with trying to introduce the crossways, re-seeding heavily with (native, heirloom seeds. NO GMO's) grasses, plants, flowers, shrubs and trees along the riverbanks before Winter's first snow for a good Spring growth, but in the valley, mountains. Maybe even try dropping hay in the mountains for 2-3 Winters. Keeping the horses out of the Valley floor until Spring. It can be done, if the greed over money can be dealt with. No going to be easy fights of getting those individuals to let go of their ill-gotten wealth to fix the problem. And making it a non-profit system on donations or tax breaks for those wealthy to claim their donation back...not going to be it. Clean (all countries) house and start putting every single penny of illegal monies back into fixing all Earth's problems.
In Africa we have enough room, need and desire to keep horses wild as they are .just ship them over and stop this curling madness. animals know how to manage the environment better than humans. only humans can overgraze animals .animals on their own they keep moving and won't feed where feed is slim. understand the concept of "live and let live"
You don't understand. These horses are destroying the environment and there are no natural predators in Australia to control this. They were brought here by humans thus thisproblem must be solved by humans. Australia can't handle another invasive species on their hands.
@Rich Ratch thank you. I would however ask you to stop reading books based on poorly done research with a lot of assumptions and go to the wild and understand these animals you will realize over grazing requires a human hand and that all animals feed on the move naturally to ensure their sustainability .Its a survival mechanism for all grazers and browsers.
@Shivam Joshi That is the point ...In Namibia there has been a hyena issue even with domestic animals way before the horses came.If you find a native from northern Namibia they all have a hyena story to tell.Horses wouldn't be a problem in Africa simply because the ecosystem is versatile and has the capability to handle itself and to your surprise all environmental problems in Africa are human related.
Shivam these people are just blood thirsty and choose to kill with the first chance they get .Culling only works for animals that are spreading diseases otherwise we as humans ought to do better.Why aren't they culling the cane-toads in such a way if its the environment they care about.
@Shivam Joshi horses are not local animals to North America. They were brought here by the spainards. Indians saw them for the first time. Then started learning and breeding them for themselves. Which actually caused the Indian culture to change and wars to happen between different tribes that would of been impossible without horses. Anyways, horses could easily live in Africa. The herds would be bigger due to more predators same as zebras. Zebras are smaller and dumber.
@Shivam Joshi besides they do run wild in parts of africa already. All kinds of videos pop up if you search it I just found out.
Have the brumbies developed differently from American mustang ?
hardier
They developed from domesticated horses from different properties. Different breeds etc the exact same way that American wild horses did. Slightly Different genetics but same they went down the same path in a different geography
Good question.
Well domestic and feral horses are much bigger than when they were tamed. They used to be way too small to carry a human.
people used to be a hell of a lot smaller not so long ago
I think that the reason that we were smaller is that we now have better nutrition during our early development
No time to go into it, but call the less “attractive” ones, held the young attractive ones, leave a few highly attractive studs. Do the same for the mares. Then you’ll have a romantic and more marketable sound animal that’ll fetch a better price than meat. Imagine a buyer saying, “I’ve been fortunate to be able and approved to purchase a genuine registered Kimberly horse”..... I dunno, it’s just a thought. I think in the US a certain line or two of mustangs is marketed. (But folks are breeding them which takes away the possibility of adoption from some feral ones still running ‘wild’ in herds.)
The Aussie government could make it illegal to breed them. They could set up and maintain the sole “registry” of them. So you can buy a desirable Kimberly, but to get another you can’t breed a registered one, you can only buy another Kimberly from the Aussie government, or buy one via transfer of ownership from another Kimberly owner.
These ideas could work I think.
The problem of over population, little to no market value, and lack of attractiveness, lack of perceived rarity (desirability) are solved. So is the problem of increasing population in the wild. So, also too then, is the problem of the poor optics and difficult public relations resulting from regular and constant large culls.
These animals have been here since 1788. 200+ years! If they were going to do any real "devastating" damage how much more time do we have before it's considered too late?
Something tells me it's just not that critical. Inconclusive data.
Governments are more worried about the erosion of soil and some plants in the desert, than they are about eroding the culture of the entire nation with waves of third world immigration. Civilization is more important than a few desert plant species.
@@snozzlehead92 he knows exactly what Australia is worried about he’s simply arguing the truth of the matter. It’s been over 200 years since wild horses were in Australia, how long does it take to do damage? If they’re so devastating to the australian environment, how come 200 years later the australian environment is still fine? Maybe in 300 years? 🤷🏻♂️
@@snozzlehead92 They are all important !! And animal's lives are ,too ! They were wrongfully kidnapped & brought there & killing them on top of that is just a sheer cruel action ,not a solution ,it just doesn't cut it !! Heartless ! 💔💜🥁🐉🎤💞

Don't kill or eat , make it a profitable business by selling in different country . I am sure the world will buy it for sports as they are strong and stubern
^^^ THIS!
they're good horses, especially the wild-caught ones. they're sturdy, sure on their feet and well-suited to just about any climate (depending on where you catch them from) and generally have pretty good confirmation. in fact, the brumby lines are less inbred than most thoroughbred racehorse pedigrees, so that makes defects less likely. they're also very intelligent, trusting and loyal horses - as shown in the video, they bond closely with their rider by the third day!
@Raymon Trigueros would you eat your own ,pets like dog. Horeses are eatablae only in a servival situations
yaikhom pritam go travel to the desert, get access to every property, spend tens of thousands of dollars if not hundreds of thousands and catch them yourself. You people have no idea on the logistics, it’s not as simple as “ just catch them “. Have a look at the size of the desert In Australia. Barely any access, extremely hot, no water, hard to drive in. And imagine how much it’d cost to transport hundreds or thousands of horses. Want the simple solution? $2 for a single bullet to deal with each horse. Or your way is probably $5,000 for each horse.
Very interesting video
Research has been done. Culling can be good. We in America roundup and auctions. The BLM has done culling that was controversial. Management is necessary
culling inst a good option they people are the reason they are there now people want to kill them how does that help the well fair of the horse by killing it? rather round them up like in america and challenge people to tame them sell them to countries but killing them is cruel
The BLM isn't doing feral horses in the US any favors. They have 40K of them standing in open dirt corrals eating their heads off with very few takers wanting to deal with trying to tame them. I assume soon the government will lose interest in feeding 40K unbroke horses and they will disappear. Slowly, but rounding adult horses up for sale has been a losing proposition from the start and some of them have started to disappear already if you follow the news stories on the issue.
If people want all feral horses classified as "wild animals" and running loose then, sorry, the best way to control the population is to treat feral horses as game animals and sponsor a regular hunting season for them. The horses run free for 50 weeks a year and are hunted for 2 weeks, just like other wild game animals. I have no problem with that idea but there are those who go into a raving fit at the very suggestion of hunting as a means of population control. They want feral horses to be classified as pet animals (they aren't), endangered (they aren't), domestic (they are domestic animals and should be rounded up as such), wild (they are feral), a natural part of American history (that's baloney) and illegal to mess with in any manner (which is ridiculous).
The horses bumming around loose in the US are in the same category as feral hogs, feral cats, feral dogs, feral cattle. If they were born in a barn and raised in a paddock you'd say they were generic mutt horses of no real value but just because they were born out in the open and are "clearskin" they are to be highly honored? GIVE ME A BREAK.
Michaela Mouton go round them up yourself. While you’re at it just go stop world hunger too. These things cost money and lots of time you know
Leave them be. And truck in water and hay for them during drought times. They are beautiful hardy creatures of the land.
Oh yeah are you gonna pay for there feed and fuel to haul them out
@@justinduke8135 I dont live in Oz but large companies and farmers could donate feed and water in the drought months. Dig a well at least so they drink something. I see even the koalas are screaming out for water to passerbys. Poor things.
You do know they have been in a drought for almost 3 years now right the big farms and corporations are trying to keep there own alive and there government is useless
@@justinduke8135 Hi Justin. A bit of water and some feed when times are tough seem like a small price to pay to keep these noble animals alive. Just because they are not needed as beasts of burdens anymore doesnt mean they should starve to death. The horse and mankind go way back together, in war, on farms. down the mines etc. They have paid there dues, they deserve better.
Now that is not humane or realistic. It would only encourage larger and larger herds and more and more starvation and drought. They are beautiful, they are hardy, but they are invasive to Australia, meaning they are outside of the natural food chain and will over run the land very quickly without any natural predators. They will starve and die of drought if we do not find effective ways to keep their numbers in check. We are their natural predator. I personally vote for sterilization. Would work very quickly and after a few years consecutively, would only need doing once every few years.
Amazing animals
Brumby will run for mile for water and run back at least 50 killer meters If we tuck one of our horses to Australia it would die within a week great video
Killer meters ?
Those must be the last few meters in a marathon 🤣
Human are the only living who is changing the ecosystem not the horses
Humans brought the horses. Much harder to get human culls approved.
You are not making any sense bud
Louis Vírtudazo so you’re a scientist?
@@Marcusb338 Doubt it
How is sterilisation not an option?? A mare’s gestation is 11 months, nearly a year, and there is access to many helicopters and GPS, but it’s hard to find the stallions?! Boggles my mind. Sterilise the young colts and stallions, leave the absolute best conformed entires, round up the rest, cull anything old, injured or badly conformed, use the rest for Equine Therapy, (get the local kids to help handle them!) and re home some! Surely we can come to a solution!
would be cheaper to shoot them
because it is easier on would be better just to shoot them
Rounding them up, sedating them, etc is extremely stressful and will kill many of them anyways. Also equine therapy? how elitist.
Some of your plan seems good & right ,but it buggles me that you speak of the horse's lives as some kind of scientific projects,or products !! The horses are the victims here !! Please do not forget it !! They got kidnapped & taken there by force !! 💔💜🥁🐉🎤💞
There’s feral horses In the desserts of Africa, pretty sure they are a lot tougher
Namib deserts to be exact
They better NOT kill or sterilize the horses
What needs to be happen is they should round up the horses and people need to adopt the horses
they already do that
I agree with with your comment
There is desert horses example Arabian, Berber horse and Somali horse.
Please please, stop saying "break, breaker, breaking". Those horses are being tamed and then trained.
I agree and say the same thing as a former horse trainer in the aussy outback.
They're beautiful animals.
Please don't kill them.
Just because they are "beautiful" doesn't give them a free pass to destroy everything. Native species are the first to be thought about and if these animals hurt the ecosystem they must leave.
That's totally correct
Yeah and bilbies are beautiful too but also endangered. Think about whats at stake mate.
Beautiful creatures.
Leave alone please
Well since you said please
Did you not watch the video? If you leave them alone they starve to death by the tens of thousands

The manure produced by these horses will definitly fertilize the lands and the quality of the soil will imporve in the long run. On the other hand, It would be a better idea to deport the human colonizers to their countries of origin (Britian, Ireland and so on..) and let the aboriginal Australians live peacefully in a cleaner environment.
it is a big area so the ground doesn't get better
You sure have that too smart problem repaired.
@@kmansfield8770 in 2019 almost the entire of central desert australia was underwater from foods, this happens every few years so yes combine that with horse manure, over decades the area scientifically should become more fertile but then there’s the devastation horse hooves cause to the ground but if they keep moving (moving herds like zebra in Africa help grass grow) the country will regenerate but if they stay in the one spot and over eat, they ground will become eroded and dusty.

Maybe dingoes!?
Veronica Brenes dingoes couldn’t take down a horse. Not sure they could out run a desert brumby either. I like the idea, definitely need more dingoes or for them to be protected.
There are feral horses in the Namibian desert.
build as many water holes as possible and hope for one good rain. that will really change the landscape altogether. do not blame on the horses as they cannot speak. if you speak can you do? all the owner do not cultivate the land but lived off the land. over time the land gets destroyed. see the problem.
