Essential Questions

Every year, the government rounds-up wild horses across the United States. I choose this topic because I feel that not enough people know what is happening to these magnificent creatures. Many people do not know what is really happening the wild horses and I feel the need to inform them.  Several questions that help me guide my research is: How does the government round-up the wild horses? What happens to the horses after they are rounded-up? Why does the government round-up the wild horses? Should we do something to try and stop the round-ups? Which methods does the government use to reduce the wild horse population? With the information I uncover, I will be closer to helping inform many people about the dark future for our wild friends.
