     Advocates say that after the last horse roundup in the park, in 2009, eight of the 77 horses sold at auction ended up going to slaughterhouses.
 
     The park maintains a demonstration herd of what it calls feral horses to commemorate the wild horses that roamed the badlands when Theodore Roosevelt ranched in the area during the 1880s. Spokeswoman Eileen Andes says the herd has grown beyond the ideal size for the park.
