What novel idea did the people of Chincoteague have for controlling the number of wild horses?

In 1925, they held the first annual roundup of the Assateague (Chincoteague) ponies. This is called the Chincoteague pony swim. During this, they swim a herd of the ponies across the Assateague Channel (inbetween Assateague Island and Chincoteague Island). When they reach the shore of Chincoteague, the ponies are put in pens. Then, before they swim them back to Assateague Island, they hold an auction to sell some of the ponies. This helps to decrease the population of the wild ponies. The money that they raise from these auctions helps to fund the Chincoteague Volunteer Fire Department, whose firemen are the ones who round up and swim the ponies across the channel.

How did the chincoteague pony evolve?

there are two stories: (1) a spanish galleon crashed in a storm off the coast of chincoteague and the ponies that were aboard swam to shore and (2) the early settlers of assateague let their ponies graze there and after years and years there were reports of wild "beach ponies" on the island. When the settlers moved to chincoteague, the wild ponies stayed. And those were the ancestors of today's chincoteague ponies.
