Managing feral horses in Victoria: A study of community attitudes and perceptions.

The article presents information about the management of wild horses in Victoria. It presents results of a survey held in 2005, which shows different attitudes of people towards horse management. A two-step questionnaire was formed and sent to people, selected randomly from a directory. Few face-to-face interviews were also conducted. Seventy nine percent people did not consider horses as a pest animal, and rejected the idea of any environmental harm. Charts showing the result of the questionnaire are presented. Names of people who helped in the research are also mentioned.
