The Black Stallion-Mystery
Friends, this fine animal is named, Mystery, one of the wild horses that run free within the confines of the Theodore Roosevelt National Park in western North Dakota. I especially like seeing these animals cause some may be descendants of domestic horses raised by my grandfather in the early 20th century. He ranched along the Little Missouri River and raised horses for the army. Some of the remount stallions leased by the army were part-Morgan and i think this horse looks like Morgan type. Others with more knowledge will disagree, but it warms my heart to see this stallion, running free as in the bottom image. So today, the black stallion of the badlands. til Tomorrow MJ
Weekly Photo Challenge: Together
Friends, wild horses are very together in a natural setting of the North Dakota badlands. Often i have seen them with their heads together and we humans interpret that as affection, and maybe it is horse affection. Or maybe they are chasing flies away from each face region. Whatever it really is, i like to think of them as affectionate,gentle creatures that at the same time are wild and free. This post starts a series of posts on the wild horses of the Theodore Roosevelt National Park (TRNP) til Tomorrow MJ
