The National Park Service has tried implanting birth control chemicals in our local feral horse population on Assateague Island. Unfortunately the program seems to be a total failure. When the flies are thick on the backside of the island the horses often move to the beach where the seabreeze helps some, however you can still see a few divebombers in the shot!
