Would take you up on your offer but don't live down there anymore.
Have I seen sign of horses in the west country? Absolutely. Is it the only cause of the elk decline? Of course not. Could it be part of the problem? I'd say yes. (see what I did there)
Now let us take one of your pictures.
I see over grazing and wallowing. Guess there is some impact from these animals.
Livestock belong behind a fence. I would say the same thing about cattle on ranges as well.

I have never seen a horse wallow in the mud. Ever. They roll in the dirt frequently, but I've never seen one wallow in the mud like a pig.
