Thank you for this, so interesting. Love to see these beauties wild & free!!!

[@karenkingart]

You're most welcome! Thank you for watching!

[@terrykerr9162]

Be interesting to see how many of these horses are actually descended from wild mustangs.

[@BrendaHaltom-cs6ck]

Beautiful horses and scenery! I noticed a lot of spotted horses in this herd! A few light colored, sorrels and pallamino! Loved seeing this! Thank you Ms King!❤️🐎

[@karenkingart]

I'm glad you enjoyed watching!

[@user-wi6sh6vh8u]

A lot of them of the paint and/or pinto persuasion with the piebald and skewbald type color schemes remind me of the ones in the ‘Misty’ books by the late author Marguerite Henry.

[@consciousartlife]

My god, that stallion at 5:33 is just breathtaking... what a privilege you have to watch such interesting interactions between the horses

[@karenkingart]

Yes, he is stunning! His name is Slash and he is magnificent to see in person!

[@consciousartlife]

@@karenkingart What a fitting name for him! Can I perhaps come and join you one day? I'm planning on coming to the U.S. soon, it would be amazing to hang out with a fellow artist who also gets inspired by the spirit of the horse (I just checked out your art and it's very beautiful).

[@karenkingart]

@@consciousartlife I don't know when I will be able to make a trip out west this year. I live in Florida and these horses are 3,000 miles away from me. I know they have a local tour company who could take you out to see the horses in Cody, Wyoming.

[@christinaballard2246]

I wish I could be like them running wild and free❤

[@terrykerr9162]

Go ahead

What an informative video, I was just happen to think about evasive or not native species like the Python in Florida, and then I realized that horses were brought by Europeans But were considered the horse a huge part of work efficiency and transportation, so glad to read the the opinions on this comment thread.

[@sanniepstein4835]

In each of the herds you've shown, there are surprisingly few foals.

[@karenkingart]

Yes, you noticed correctly. The wild horse herds here in America are fghting the battle of their lives. Big cattle corporations want more cheap forage public lands to graze their cattle, and the wild horse is getting in their way. They help to promote the lie that the horses are overpopulated and that they destroy the land. So the government keeps rounding up the horses and using birth control on the mares so there are fewer foals born. The government looks at the wild horses as "feral" with no monetary value, along with many cattle ranchers. There are already 75,000 wild horses in holding pens with over 2,400 more horses planned for roundup in 2024. The tax payer pays 3 million dollars per state to feed these horses every year while the big corporations take more land for cattle and sheep. It's quite the battle for the wild horse avocates who don't want to see the wild horses eradicated from the west. Sorry for the long reply, but I make my videos to celebrate the wild horses and to educate people who don't have a clue about what's going on. Thank you for watching!

[@user-wi6sh6vh8u]

They wouldn’t have such problems if only some of them of the paint and/or pinto persuasions with the color schemes of piebald and skewbald were relocated to Assateague Island off the coast of Virginia. Then there would be plenty of foals, especially for the event known as Pony Penning Days on neighboring Chincoteague Island?

[@user-wi6sh6vh8u]

I know just what you mean. Too bad that we can’t somehow take a selected few for possible relocation to Assateague Island off the coast of Virginia? Then maybe they could easily intermingle with their wild cousins that live there.

Amazing colour in those bands of ferrals, I wonder what the percentage harvested is? I'm guessing most of the junior males are, so as to be castrated and made something of before they are too knot headed and only good for horse meat?

[@creativerhythms6250]

Hi Karen, thanks so much for the lovely video. I was wondering whether you have any DVDs like this? Or can recommend any? I support a lady who just loved this but she has no internet and is hoping to find a DVD of wild horses with natural soundtrack - I've done a search online but am struggling to find anything suitable!

[@karenkingart]

I don't have any DVDs of my wild horses. You will just have to search the internet to find some. I'm only one of the few people who really put together these kinds of videos. If I ever do make any DVDs I'll let you know. :) Thanks for watching!

[@giuseppegumina5576]

Video Super. Very ❤

[@user-wi6sh6vh8u]

Does anyone else out there want to try to get as many as possible relocated to Assateague Island off the coast of Virginia?

[@conniewolf7300]

Wow there are a lot of pintos!

[@user-wi6sh6vh8u]

How true that is. However, they’re descended from the same Moorish Ponies that were being sent to Peru 🇵🇪 and places such as that to work in the gold mines originally. Yet, one boatload of twenty head only got as far as the eastern seaboard, and they were on the Spanish Galleon called the Santo Cristo. It sunk off the coast of Virginia in the early to middle part of the 16TH Century, and only the stallion and fifteen mares made it to the safety of Assateague Island. If things keep going the way they are at present, lots of these pintos may have to be relocated to Assateague Island to live with their wild cousins that already live there, but all in all, it’ll be worth the effort.

[@madchad2]

Karen (or any one).....does any one know 'exactly' where this video was filmed? Obviously it is in Wyoming, but precisely where in Wyoming? If you 'do not' know, please do not respond. I am doing a native grass lands study and given the amazing condition of these wild horses, I need to know what the location specific indigenous grasses are. Thank you to who ever has the correct answer. 😉

[@rockeeh78]

Cody, Wyoming

[@karenkingart]

This was filmed at the McCullough Peaks near Cody, WY. This herd has been closely monitored with use of birth control for the mares and bait trapping to keep the numbers down, so it is a healthy herd. I'm not so sure the land is that productive with specific indegenous grasses. The horses tend to be given the most unproductive land to live on and they thrive because they are so tough. I'm sure the Cody BLM office could give you some direction on the grasses.

[@pjmannos7548]

The BLM just did a big roundup of the Cody horses.

[@karenkingart]

@@pjmannos7548 They are doing bait traps there until March, I believe. I haven't heard if they have trapped any horses yet.

[@user-wi6sh6vh8u]

Then maybe it’s just time to relocate some of them to Assateague Island off the coast of Virginia.

[@spirithorse4989]

They're so beautiful, resilient, majestic, historic.... I hate our species for trying to destroy them.

Yes, there are many different places to see the wild horses in Wyoming. Just google Wyoming HMA. saveourwildhorses.net/wyoming-wild-horses.html

[@beevang600]

Of course this is real. These wild horses are in Wyoming, USA.

[@user-zt2vi9ej6d]

Evening i really love horse's are they available in which country can we find them❤❤❤

[@shannondominguez9725]

This is the United States

[@irwanawalluddin4584]

How their nails.. Cut by itself?

[@karenkingart]

They have very tough feet and wear down their hooves on the rocky terrain.

[@shereneliscom6736]

It's sad I don't see any leapord or appaloosa's

[@biddydibdab9180]

They are so gorgeous but I don’t want to watch because governments don’t protect them. Instead they persecute them.

[@user-wi6sh6vh8u]

Then maybe it’s just about time that someone took as many of those which have the paint and/or pinto look with the coloring schemes of both the piebald and the skewbald, and relocated them to Assateague Island off the coast of Virginia to intermingle with their cousins that already live there. In a sense, at least this way when the annual event known as Pony Penning Days on neighboring Chincoteague Island occurs in late July, the foals and possibly the yearlings will find new homes. Furthermore, all funds from the sales go to purchase brand new equipment for the Chincoteague Volunteer Fire Company. Anyone favoring this possibility, please let me know.

[@LauraB-xp3ov]

Have you ever seen a foal born in the wild

[@karenkingart]

No, I have not.

[@Ricky-ei9zm]

Are the animals still available

[@shannondominguez9725]

What do you mean available they don’t belong to anyone. Many people travel to the different HMA’s to see the horses. These ones including Thor’s band are in the McCullough Peaks(Wyoming)

[@sarahvandomelen8627]

They are beautiful but it ao sad the us government wants to get rid of all of them in such a inhumane manner

[@karenkingart]

The wild horse advocates have been trying for years to stop the removal of wild horses, especially by helicopter. We are up against big cattle corporations who have a lot of money to get rid of the horses to make more room for cheap forage for more cattle. Wyoming doesn't see a monetary value to the horses. It's all so heartbreaking. The government lies and says the horses destroy the land (cattle do more damage) or they lie and say the horses are "starving" and they need to round them up to "save" them. It's all lies. If you notice there are no skinny horses in my videos. An occasional old horse or a nursing mother coming out of winter may be thin, but they put the weight back on in the spring.

[@terrykerr9162]

The government won't let go of their stupid mismanagement of loose horses.

[@erikm8372]

I know my perspective means nothing to cattle ranchers or other businessmen, but for the people concerned with nature or the ecological impact-horses evolved in North America. And for anyone in government or cattle ranching saying the horses are “struggling and starving,” and they need to be culled for their own good, why do you care all of a sudden? 🤔 I thought getting the horses’ population to go down was the point. Not that I condone all that... But historically, equids (plus camelids, too, among other animals) evolved here before they, millennia and centuries later, would go extinct but later be “returned” to the continent by Europeans. So really, they have their niche in American ecology. I don’t see horses as not fitting in the environment of the west. America needs this biodiversity that was 80% destroyed from the bison hunting madness pre-1900. Mountains of bones from bison, elk and pronghorn piled hundreds of feet high. I mean, it’s not like the land here is NOT devoid of its once-rich biodiversity. The prairies and landscape as a whole suffer without HERDING and HOOFED animals on it! And the weather changes, the ecosystem and the entire terrain as well. The bison need the grass, the grass needs the prairie dogs, the prairie dogs need the ferrets to keep them in check, but those are still so endangered… and the grass and the prairie need herds of horses, camels, bison, elk, and pronghorn to maintain the land, to trim and prune the plants and to fertilize the soil. The burrowing animals help aerate the ground. And all the smaller animals, burrowing owls, tortoises, snakes, lizards, roads etc. all rely on the burrows for shelter. The drippings from the herds attract insects which the reptiles feed on. People say “but prairie dog mounds and other burrows are death traps for larger animals to trip on and die,” well survival of the fittest sure ain’t pretty, is it? 😂 🤷🏼‍♂️ Imagine if camels were to be set free, such as the wild Bactrian camel from Mongolia (endangered); as with equids, they’d have their niche here, as a camelid, and probably adapt to the winters and everything of the lands west of the Mississippi and north of the Rio Grande, I’d say… and we’d be fostering an endangered species. That’s nearly extinct in its home country. Meanwhile, look at camels in places like Australia. Somewhere they did NOT evolve from. They’ve done very well for the past few hundred years in the Outback-too well. I hear there’s a million camels there. They try to manage them on farms but many are shot. They truly destroy the land there, as do the horses (or “brumbies”) and donkeys Australia didn’t even evolve hoofed creatures, period. Whereas North America, theoretically, can handle horses on the land just because of their own evolutionary past, places like Australia I don’t believe should have then. That’s why this issue needs to be tackled with paleontology and other forms of evidence presented. The problem the businessmen have is that horses (brought back here by humans) are in the way of their potential profits. The issue is with non-native species causing problems, spreading disease, eating wild plants into extinction, trampling nesting sites of birds and small mammals… and by non native I do mean the majority of domestic livestock!! Look at the damage caused by pigs escaping and destroying the landscape, reverting to their wild boar identities! Only worse, and bigger, than the common Eurasian wild boar, because of the wider gene pool of domestic pigs! Anyway. Sorry haha.

[@karenkingart]

@@erikm8372 Thanks Erik for taking the time to write a very informative reply to my video. I hope everyone reads it. You are so right when you say the horses are in the way of potential businessmen's profits. I understand most of these are foreign big corporations. Why would they care about our land? Wild horses have designated land called Horse Management Areas (HMA). A lot smaller percentage of land than cattle. Thanks for your reply!

[@user-wi6sh6vh8u]

In the case at hand, we might have to try relocating some of them to Assateague Island off the coast of Virginia.
