Brits use wild horses to promote biodiversity « Straight from the Horse's Heart: "Wild horses have been let loose to roam around and help sustain an environmentally important nature reserve in Kent.

The Konik horses, which are the closest living relatives of the extinct Tarpan, a wild forest horse that lived in Britain during Neolithic times, have been released at Wraik Hill near Whitstable.

Kent Wildlife Trust, which manages the reserve, and the conservation charity Wildwood Trust, which has another five herds of wild horses across the county, said the horses would graze the area and keep the grass short."
