You're really better off posting this in The Equestrian Tavern - EVERYONE reads the stuff in there. Posting in here, considering no one's posted since September, eehhhh...

I don't really know much about mustangs, but from what I've heard they are healthier than tame horses, probably due to survival of the fittest actually getting a chance out there in the wild vs. our little system of "NURSE THE DYING THING BACK TO HEALTH then let's breed it later!"

As for the wildness thing, that depends on the horses. Horses are just like people. Some are complete #@)(*&$)@#$'s, some are peaceful and wonderful. It's all in the personality. A foal that came from two wild mustangs that was raised by people from birth would be just the same as a kitten you found 2 weeks old in an alley in the city and raising it on your own. The cat will end up being just as used to you as a tame cat would be, but it's the personality that determines if it's going to be feral in its habits, such as fighting, wandering off, etc.
