After a trip to the Twin Peaks Herd Management Area and experiencing the thrill of seeing horses in the wild, we realized there may be others who wish to observe unbound Mustangs. So armed with our cameras, binoculars, maps and 4WD we will venture into these wild and rugged places. Within these electronic pages we will share what is out there… Where The Wild Horses Are… living life naturally. Exploring also some of the places they come to be when removed from these management areas.

The posts contain many photos, click on them to enlarge for more clarity, but please do not copy or reproduce without permission. email us. Thank you for visiting and we hope you enjoy the trip!

Sanctuary

"Sanctuary is the process of changing human perceptions, notions and values toward animals.
Anything less is not worth doing." 
Barbara Clarke






The big Bay Stallion in the video below, taken August 7th, 2010, was captured at Painters Flat on September 3rd, 2010. He was shipped to the Litchfield Corrals for possible release according to appropriate management levels (AML) for his home range. After spending 7 months at the corrals waiting to be released It was determined there were enough horses remaining in the wild so he would not be returned, he would be gelded and sent to long term holding. But he had friends and admirers who changed his fate.
