Description

From the moment I first heard about Sable Island over 20 years ago, I was captivated and determined to go. There are currently only two ways to visit the island, by air or by sea. Wild horses, and the largest grey seal colony on Earth, are the only mammals found, aside from the few humans staying at Main Station. Last week was my third time visiting Sable Island.   In this episode, I reflect on what makes this place and these horses so special. The wild horses have not been interfered with or captured by man since the 1950s. They are protected and allowed to live out their lives as nature wants, not humans. This is my dream for all wild horses in America, it's what I'm fighting for, and I invite you to join me in this fight.   Get full show notes and more information here: https://www.wildhoofbeats.com/17
