Battle of humans and wild horses on Outer Banks barrier islands
Across Corolla and nearby Atlantic islands a long conflict pits dwindling free roaming banker horses against tourists and development. The herd fell to 23 and several dozen have died or been injured by vehicles or stairs, prompting plans to relocate them onto 15000 acres of state and federal lands with a protective fence and birth control trials at Assateague and nearby seashores.
