At one point, a small group of wild horses are herded along a road, by having an airplane fly after and above them. The pilot even fires a rifle at them but intentionally doesn't hit any.
After that, the horses are chased by men in trucks, while a woman in the truck is crying because she thinks it is cruel. The horses do struggle against the ropes and fight the men, and end up lying tied up on the ground at night.
