Frisky Horse Pals

Wild Mustang horse pals, seen and photographed at Sand Wash Basin in NW Colorado. These two frisky young ones were in a band of horses that we spotted while driving on the dirt roads looking for them. These wild horses are so beautiful and proud, I completely fell in love with them!

Wild Mustangs are free-roaming horses of the American west that were originally brought to the Americas by the Spanish. We think of Mustangs as wild horses, but because they are descended from once-domesticated horses, they are actually feral horses. This free-roaming horse population is managed and protected by the BLM, the Bureau of Land Management. There is some controversy surrounding the sharing of land and resources by the free-ranging mustangs with the livestock of the ranching industry. There is also dispute about the methods with which the federal government manages the wild horse numbers.
