where are wild horses found in the us
Mustang The BLM has established Herd Management Areas to determine where and how many animals will be sustained as free-roaming populations.[101] Some populations of free-roaming horses and burros remain protected under the Act, but others have disappeared from places where there were once established populations.[102] A few hundred free-roaming horses survive in Alberta and British Columbia. The BLM considers roughly 26,000 individuals a manageable number,[93] but the feral mustang population in February 2010 was 33,700 horses and 4,700 burros.[93] More than half of all mustangs in North America are found in Nevada (which features the horses on its State Quarter), with other significant populations in California, Oregon, Utah, Montana, and Wyoming.[102][103][104] Another 34,000 horses are in holding facilities.[93]
Alligator Alligators are native to only the United States and China.[9][10]
Florida With a population of more than 18 million according to the 2010 census, Florida is the most populous state in the southeastern United States and the third-most populous in the United States.
Wild boar Starting in the mid-80s, several boars purchased from the San Diego Zoo and Tierpark Berlin were released into the United States. A decade later, more specimens from farms in Canada and Białowieża Forest were let loose. In recent years, wild pig populations have been reported in 44 states within the US, most of which are likely wild boar-feral hog hybrids. Pure wild boar populations may still be present, but are extremely localised.[69]
