Hungry wild horses forage at an abandoned industrial site a few miles east of Reno, Nevada. Mustangs are protected by law and are assigned herd management areas. Increased pressures on public lands make the American West more fenced and water and food sources even more rare. Wild horses can be found in desolate places like this, just trying to survive.
