It's hard to miss the horses on the way to the mountains.

They've established free-roaming populations throughout the foothills and grasslands of Alberta's eastern slopes, with herds of wild horses almost guaranteed to be seen off Highway 1 west of Calgary year-round.

But the abundance of what the Alberta government calls "feral horses" has reached "unacceptable" levels, according to the province's horse management strategy.

Marlaina couldn't tell the truth if her life depended on it.

If she can verify the number of wild horses with actual facts - and the numbers are enough to lead to starvation - then a cull should happen.

But she's lying as usual.
