- Wild horses Goliath and Red Lady reunite after being separated by a BLM roundup. After being apart for six months they see each other for the first time at Skydog Sanctuary and shortly afterwards have a final foal together. This is a call to action for people to get involved in this issue and help fight for these wild horses who are being endlessly rounded up and put in holding facilities in America.

Horses helped build the foundation of our nations. It is a tragedy that we never took the time to really honor their service. A statue or a nice poem does not do justice. They should be protected and honored as the noble animals they are.
Exactly! Humans as a species and so ungrateful and never look back and appreciate what got them so far as a they are now. The world could survive without humans but couldn't survive without the very animals we disgrace and abuse.
I mean that's all people like Andrew Jackson, George Washington, Benjamin Franklin, Abraham Lincoln, etc. got. We treat animals way better than any other country on the planet. You ever see a police dog? If someone hurts that police dog it is treated the exact same way as if someone hurt a human officer. Because that dog IS an officer. The exact same goes for police horses. You have no idea what it's like in other parts of the world if you think the US is even remotely bad for animals. Hell, the national and state parks are larger than any others in the world and completely forbid hunting. Unlike at other countries, you ever go to Africa? Poaching and legal hunting endangered species EVERYWHERE. That'd be a felony in the US. These Horses ARE protected way more than you know, literally just look it up.
Yo Africa is a fucking continent. Not a single nation
@@ratskullz_x Blah blah blah, humans sucks. See if that helps. But Horses are cool. I prefer Fjord Horses best because they are the most kindest horses interms of temprement. But horses are nice
@@WalrusWinking So your bar is say, China where they torture and beat dogs to death to make the meat taste better. Our country should look to more brutal treatment of animals in far away lands to justify shortcomings in our own nation? No, the bar should be raised higher.
Factory farming should be abolished. Beef should be grown in labs. No animal should have to suffer just so a human can have a burger. If ranching disappeared, wolves, pumas, burros and wild horses would not have to be "managed". I always chuckle at that word, because who is managing the massive billions of humans on the planet? A greedy predator that has killed 70% of life on earth. And will continue until this planet is nothing more than a massive dust bowl.
You mean there's no other land in this huge country for livestock? I hate this. Thank you for what you do for these majestic horses.
Stop eating meat. It's the only way to stop the industry.
No, there is, but someone paid someone else and now these beautiful animals must suffer for it. Sickening.
@@Peace2yaa Non wild horses, or the vast majority, live meaningful lives and suffer similar to humans.
I am so devastated that the government that represent us would think this is at all acceptable. My heart is happy that Goliath, Red Lady and their baby are finally together. We all need to reach out and make our position clear!
Dems we horse just like we did the Indians
.
Gelding.
You think your government represents you 😂😅🤣
Because they have no empathy, or respect.
Hypocritical.. no slaughter of horses authorized in the US.. they are shipped out daily to Canada for slaughter
The beginning breaks my heart. This has to stop 🤬
But the rescues that Skydog do are so wonderful and heartwarming. Clare is the best.
Proud to be a monthly donor.
Surprised these two weren't quarantined per usual..
Hello Jennifer how’s the weather over there
Just consuming less meat will help. They cleared the horses out for more cattle space
They're nit rescuing shit, they're stealing them. And then mutilating them. The piece of shits doing deserve their heads cut off.
As an old saying goes: "We don't inherit the land from our ancestors, we borrow it from our grandchildren"!
I am a tall and solid guy, but when I saw the unification of Goliath and Red Lady, my eyes got watery !!!
And I'm most certainly not ashamed of it. Thank you a lot for downloading this story.
Well im short and im mexican and i didnt cry , U tall ass crying baby lol. Jk
gay ass
Too bad the rich & greedy took over everything when they got here, & the religious types called Native Americans "heathens" & felt they had to make them pray to their god, didn't matter what the Native Americans felt. White gave them blankets that had pox (I believe) & got them sick & killed them. The greedy, filthy, rich took over. Brought in railroads, made states & unjust laws. Time we take this country back if you ask me.
@Mr Ork that's the problem with society, a bunch of lazy humans, who have to work out because their jobs took over their lives, have to buy, buy, buy, go into debt, & work to pay the fed with fake money.
I cried a little at the sad parts where the horses were being persued by the helicopter. What a lethal amount of stress and fear that situation must have brought. Fuck the people doing this, it needs to never happen ever again
We are a nation of fools, led by people who have no interest in protecting the beautiful natural resources of this great nation, including these beautiful horses.
Crauter research. I love horses but not native
Buck ey, White Europeans are more of an invasive species than horses are so maybe we're the ones who should be booted first. I mean, we're ruining this place a hell of a lot more than they are
Skull Full no we are just smarter, stronger than the ppl here. Also they stole the land lame guy.
They could have also killed all of them instead of letting them get adopted
Skull Full no native Americans are still here ....those are settlers
mustangs are the symbol for the free spirit.
Susanne Koch yes
Yaas 😉
@@ashleyrodriguez8724 eydunfuls😉
mustangs are feral, why not pick a wild animal?
Free spirited.
=.)
I come from a 4 generation ranching family and I 100% support wild mustangs staying where they belong running free, they are part of the heritage of the West we cannot lose them because of BLM bureaucrats and a small minority of ranchers who bring shame on the rest of us.
Anyone ever watch Spirit: Stallion of the Cimarron? Cause I did and I was having flashbacks from the movie the whole time I was watching this. 🐎
Tita Aguilera yes I love that movie and I thought about it while watching this as well
Tita Aguilera i looove that movie
Loved that movie ❤️ I still have the poster of Spirit just like new❣️
Wonderful film 👍 Thank you for all that is done to save our horses👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏🖐️👏✋✋
I think there is actually one of his kind in the Heard
Lmao yessss
I was obsessed with that movie when I was younger, and honestly, it's still high up on my fav movie list XD
I can totally see why he's called GOLIATH.
THAT GUY IS HUGE FOR A MUSTANG!
He's definitely a breed of later introduced horses.
I belive that Goliath descent from spanish horses, and he looks very much like the Friesian horses do to. They are very beautiful.....
@@hannahnyheim3213 You're right. I'm no expert at all.
And they gelded such a mustang... What a shame.
They released some percheron stallions at a later stage. Seems a likely heritage
Horses are entitled to their freedom, and they are owed that from humans, whose civilization they help build and literally carried on their backs.
Imagine being in such a close-knit and loving family, torn apart, hearts broken and scared, not knowing where you are or what’s happening to you. Heartbreaking.
Hello Faith how’s the weather over there
That was the experience of a set of people in this earth.
So thankful that slavery was abolished.🙌🏿
May we all be made free, to rewild🔅💃🏾
@@Sharedpath777 as a Caucasian woman in her 50s, I’d love to know when slavery was abolished? Only the name was changed to Bureau of Prisons and voter suppression.
@@Maggie52209 Actually slavery still takes place in Saudi Arabia , Libiya and Nepal
I can't even watch this! It's just cruel. In Germany we try to protect our wild horses as good as we can and have to seperate young stallions out of the herd because there isn't enough space for them having their own herd. But the USA has acres of land no one needs. Just let the horses roam free, they are a national treasure!
@JRRnotTolkien you aren't even German, right? Just stop assuming and don't write such racist things
What do muslims have to do with wild horses? That's absolutly offtopic. Germany has one of the lowest birthrates and our national parks (that is where the "wild" horses live) are sanctuarys. They will never be land for cattle or housing. Neither for muslims nor for christs, hindus, jews or atheists.
@r w I know, they are only semi-wild but live largely unaffected from humans. Not like the mustangs in Northern America but as wild as a horse in this small area can be
Thankfully in the US some are allowed to roam free, I love how Assoteague island allows their famous ponies to just live their wild lives
@r w so are you
The BLM to these majestic animals is as the settlers were to the American Indians. They just came and took their land away from them and forced them somewhere else. I understand farmers have to have land for their cattle to graze but, there's plenty of it around or, at least there was until man started devastating the land, overworking it just like everything else. The ground, like everything else, needs rest too. I'm not surprised it's no longer "bearing fruit" like it use to. A BIG thanks to Skydog for not only giving these beautiful creatures back their freedom but, reuniting them once again. What a beautiful reunion.😭😭❤❤
I have said that same thing many times, Melissa - that the BLM is determined to wipe out the wild horses, just as the Bureau of Indian Affairs was to wipe out the Native peoples two centuries ago. What sort of democracy is there in the U.S. ? And nowadays even the cattle seldom get to roam on pasture Most are in feedlots, an unsustainable system in the extreme. Thank God there are still humans who ARE humane ! Well done to all who rescue and offer a natural life to the wildies. May you be blessed.
This is such an important video. I've been following their story since just before Goliath and Red Lady reunited. I wept through the entirety of this video. It is so tragic that land is stolen from wild horses, and that their lives as they knew it are stolen, too. Thank you for all that you do. You inspire me endlessly. I'll be sharing this everywhere as it is so important.
Jessicas Animal Friends ...Beautiful video, beautifully said!
@Antonia Sigafus - Actually, that's the profit monger's story. Mustangs are rounded up from our public lands so that wealthy cattle ranchers can graze their cattle on our public lands for free. They have paid off the government so they can do this... the lands that the horses are rounded up from are not then left alone, they are grazed by cattle which do much more damage than horses. Horses migrate and move, they do not stay long enough in one area to cause any damage, unlike cattle. Instead of believing the propaganda from those with money who have the money to spread false information, please do deeper research and learn the truth.
Antonia Sigafus could not have been said better myself!!
Antonia it's the unregulated cattle that are destroying our public land! You must be a rancher which is why you're against the Wildhorses. I've seen 1st hand the damage that cattle can do to land when cattle are turned out! There's millions of cattle grazing compared to a few thousand wild horses, who do you think is the real problem? Shame on you for blaming the horses!
@Shelly Anderson - you are absolutely right. Well said.
I am so over joyed with the reunion of Goliath and Red Lady!! 💙❤️. They are very lucky to be together forever and running free at Skydog Sanctuary. To see the last foal of Goliath is the best!! Thank you Claire and all who helped with the reunion of Goliath and Red Lady!! Run free forever 🐎🐎🐎 as you were meant to be. Love all horses 🥰!!
Beautiful, what you did for these two and do for so many more is wonderful. There are still too many people out there who do not understand animals, but videos like this show a better way and help change the world, one horse at a time. We are all just 'people' whether we walk on two legs or four.
Thank you FABULOUS!! Would love to see more like this!!! I have been fortunate enough to watch the wild horses run so beautifully! In smoke tree in palm springs before they disbursed the herd. It wAs a thrilling experience !! I will never forget!
exactly, people is a word describing more than one individual, more than just the human race
What a beautiful story. Appreciated by a long time horse lover and owner. So happy they were reunited.
Hello Dawn how’s the weather over there
I hate how so many humans feel they have the right to prevent an animal from reproducing. An animals only legacy is it's offspring, which many people seem to forget. Once they are gone there is nothing left in the world to remember them apart from their children. These animals are something that needs to be protected. Animals are beings capable of sadness, depression and stress. To remove an entire herd of wild mustang from their habitat without relocating them to a suitable place should be a crime. They are an animal that deserves respect and protection. The Americas used to be home to dozens of large herbivores and grassy planes. It'd be a shame to think the mustangs would be wiped out for the sake of livestock production.
Supply and demand. I stopped eating pork and veal 40 years ago. And cut way back on red meat over a decade. Meat free about 5 years now. Less demand, is less need for "grazing land"
JRRnotTolkien - nature's way of population control is through disease and famine. We need to stop vaccinating and shipping food to people who have stripped their land bare by herding cattle over it. There are 60 million people who rely on food aid to stay alive, yet they keep breeding more and more. They need to be sterilized so they can slip into extinction.
Neutering cats and dogs prevents over populating, which leads to kittens and puppies being euthanized in shelters
Mary McKeon I'm starting to realise that these 'animal shelters' aren't that much of a better option than being on the street......especially if they end up dead after being 'sheltered'.
Blue Bowser .
I agree .
We are using, abusing, murdering and torturing just about every Animal that has the misfortune to cross our path .
Imagine our planet just populated by humans ........... not a pleasant thought at all.
I cried, got all choked up. What a Blessing to see them reunite...
As a owner of several Mustangs at one time, I must say this was a beautiful story. And I totally agree that there is enough land that the horses and cattle ranches can share the space. I say take down the fences and stop giving the Cattle Ranchers what they want. I had a special relationship with all my Mustangs, I loved to hear them running to the barn to see me, and yes the ground shakes .. and beautiful to watch them run .. when they wake up and before the sun sets. I love that you are doing this for the Mustangs. God Bless you. 💕🙏🏻
The horses no more belong there than the cows do, at least cows have a more natural biological antecedent in the biome than the horses.
@@GentlemanBystander , have you ever looked up the history of the evolution of the horse species? The current genus Equus literally evolved in North America a few million years ago! They then spread to Eurasia from America over the Beringia land bridge. Wild horses lived across North America until some time between 12,500 and 7600 years ago, when they became extinct there - which is linked to the arrival of humans from Eurasia to North America about 12,500 years ago...
@@Czadzikable And they went extinct in the Americas around the time of the Younger Dryas boarder line, probably during the Hiawatha Glacial Basin impact event, ergo, since they died off as the result of a natural event, reintroduction of the species is...invasive.
@@GentlemanBystander Humans are the most virulent, destructive, invasive species there is. Horses originated in North America 35-56 million years ago. These terrier-sized mammals were adapted to forest life. Over millions of years, they increased in size and diversified.
Horses got larger in size and underwent other changes to their feet and teeth to adapt to changing environments. From five million to 24 million years ago, a number of horses occupied niches to which they had adapted, including grazing the spreading grasslands.
It was about four million years ago that the genus of all modern horses arose. The modern horse, known as Equus, evolved from the horse Pliohippus, which arose around 5 million years ago and was extinct by two million years ago.
Equus occupied North America for the entire Pleistocene epoch, from about 2.5 million years ago until their extinction. Scientists believe Equus crossed the Bering land bridge around the beginning of the epoch.
Some made it as far as Africa to evolve into the zebras we know today. Others moved across Asia, the Middle East and northern Africa, evolving into the onagers and wild asses of today, both well suited to desert environments.
Still others spread across Asia, the Middle East and Europe, evolving into the true horse, Equus caballus.
North America remained home to Equus species for most of the next 2.5 million years until they died out. On the latest evidence, that was just 7600 years ago. The new timeline suggests an overlap with human habitation approaching 6000 years.
They were REintroduced, by the Spanish Conquistadors, back to lands they belong. They lived there for millions of years & their ancestors were returned. So how can you claim they’re “an invasive species”?
From: Why did horses die out in North America? November 29, 2012 Neil Clarkson
@@allisonjames2923Then they went extinct because they couldn't adapt to Holocene North America and remained extinct in North America until the Spaniards introduced Eurasian horses ~12,200 years later.
What people fail to realize is that we all own these wild horses and we all should be demanding safety and humane protection towards them as well as our public lands. It is a shame that every stallion captured is gelded. There are some blood lines that should be preserved and protected. Many former pet horses of various breeds been abandoned out west when people can no longer provide for them and the ones that survive have bred into mustang herds creating horses that are less adapted for survival in the wild and weakening the herds' unique blood lines. When we come across a mature stallion in remarkable physical condition we should have an option to preserve this stallion as intact for organizations and tribes with the land and resources to manage a herd of wild mustangs. Mustangs should not be considered in the same category as unwanted dogs and cats that are routinely sterilized. The mustang is a national treasure.
Supersmile330 Many genetic groups are descended from horses from several hundred years ago who were separated from humans by war, shipwrecks, or natural disasters. So I assume these are what your refer to as former pets? The pets of today that are let loose often die for lacking the traits necessary to insure their survival on the open range or mountain foothills or are are killed by wild stallions and protective mares as they remain outside of herds. Some of these wild groups are particularly impressive in their rugged traits, able to thrive on parched pasturage, hooves that stand up to barefoot lives on rugged terrains, bodies that develop thick undercoats allowing them to thrive in temps well below zero and yes, they should be preserved. They are not the hothouse flowers of many breeds of today. Some genetic family groups are already under protection, more should be. "To observe them and wax poetically" ? Well, I guess we do that too because even though we are down to earth practical farmers, horse owners, and trainers and also own several rescues we do indeed sit on our porch on occasion and observe them and wax poetically, as does every single horse owner I have ever met. It is not what drives us to protect the wild horses though as waxing poetically is something we just don't have much time to do as we work year round and have the responsibility of animals 24/7 on our farms and ranches. I am glad you asked though. Perhaps you should try and visit one of the Indian tribes out west or the Nations in Canada where herds of wild horses have fairly recently begun to thrive once again under protective laws. They will most likely leave you waxing poetically as would watching herds of buffalo that are once again reappearing as they are protected and encouraged to breed with genetically superior bulls (having the traits needed for best chance of survival). I will have to borrow your term, it fits so well! Thanks for enriching my language and sharing your thoughts.
Supersmile330 they are rounded up so that cattle lifestock have more room. Its monetary gain, nothing else. Who cares if most of the caught mustangs die from stess, infections or deseases they never came in contact with in the wild. Wild horses existed for a long time, cattle ranchers with enough money are the new element.
Conservation groups that rescue these wild horses do much to raise awareness and needed cash to promote better management of our natural resources. The fact that they do not breed these horses says much about the fact that they are leaders in educating the public that herd management is not a backyard breeding program. Read back to the fact that we are farmers. We know about grazing rights on federal land, not some random private lands that horses invade, our lands that the BLM is supposed to wisely manage with out tax dollars. And again, yes, there are some types of vegetation as well as animal life that are endangered on these lands and need to be protected from overgrazing and despite bad press farmers and ranchers have done much in this area as stewards of the lands we use. We take this stewardship very seriously. (which brings me around to the ranchers who do not pay land fees and refuse to get off federal lands deemed under protection, i.e. the ranchers out west who seized federal parks and buildings to protest the feds demand for rent money and relocation of the cattle herds to protect wildlife, but that's another issue). Read my comments again. I suggest that there are stallions who need to be preserved intact. Their herds also demand protection which means selective culling. You do not understand land and herd management, it has nothing to do with sentimental value and everything to do with preserving a a unique genetic strain while protecting others under threat. Cattle herds are not under that protection but they do provide necessary funds from rental fees. We do the same for buffalo herds. Many are now used as private cattle herds utilized for processing as food, but other wild rugged bulls are left intact along with mature successful cows and allowed to breed, preserving their genetic contribution and also strengthening (health wise) the wild herds that are under BLM and environmental group protections for relocation. The superior bulls are helping to repopulate areas deemed safe for these herds, such as Alaska for instance but the herds are also managed such that if culling is necessary it is done but targeted bulls are left intact and returned to the herd or used to start new herds, smaller herds that can be appropriately managed. Yes, there are thousands of horses that can be rounded up and become pets, and neutered to discourage irresponsible breeding but the unique breeds that have developed in select herds need protection, just as we do for other forms of life under threat; the vegetation, turtles, wolves, wild buffalo, bald eagles, etc. Thanks for your interest which goes above and beyond what most folks with a professed interest in herd management display.
@Farmwife You are right, I don't understand much of land and herd management, which is why I will conceed to your superior knowledge. Thank you for this discourse, it was quite interesting and enlightening. With your last reply, I think I might have come to understand the situation a bit better.
You might wanna double check your history there paylin. Horses evolved on North America long before the first human stepped foot on the land. Early natives drove them extinct. We just reintroduced them to their old habitat.
I cried.. I seriously don't get why anyone would hurt horses they're such beautiful loving creatures
It’s our government doing it

After caring for horses during my high school days I found the round ups very abhorrent! Thank you for the happy outcome to the story. I cried like a baby when they were reunited and found out Red Lady was pregnant with their final baby! Many Blessings, Light and Love to ALL those who made their reunion possible!!! ⭐💖🙏
How sad. BLM is an American disgrace. Bless your hearts bringing the two lovers back together. I have seen wild horses run up in Reno. Just beautiful. Dreams are torn when trust is broken. 💓
Hi have you heard of carrying capacity? it's the amount of life an ecosystem can sustain before it tanks. i suggest you look it up.
Yeah? Let's consider your logic - wild mustangs roam millions of acres and have done so for centuries. Enter the cattleman. Mustangs are removed from their homeland so cattle can graze. Horses are selective herbivores, meaning the browse as they eat. Cows are dedicated grazers. The methane produced by cattle farts has an impact on global warming due to their sheer numbers. So, please explain how removing a relatively small number of wild mustangs so that large numbers of cattle can graze has any basis in the idea that mustangs are overpopulated so the ecosystem can no longer sustain them.
If it were not for BLM many more wild horses would die. Those fortunate enough to get homes are saved from what could be death due to over population. Think about that! The horses are not slaughtered like many believe. They are very carefully brought to the station for adoption with hardly any big wounds. Small scratches occur even when you herd sheep around all day. I am 72 years old and breed and train barrel horses. Horses are my passion.
@Johnny Doeski just because you weren't aware of a problem before, doesn't mean there wasn't one, ya donkey
I have a mustang and love him. He was captured in a fire and still has hair that grows back white from where the fire burned him. He lives on 7 acres and loves his two beautiful mares. What they fail to mention in this video is that a lot of horses starve in the wild and sometimes have to be collected when fires burn all the food the horses have to eat. My horses are all nice fat and happy and I know he’s happy because he's one of the laziest horses I know and loves having his food handed to him. He will also do just about anything for a carrot which he had never had before. It was the funniest thing watching him eat it for the first time. The BLM collects horses but also releases horses quite often. They won't adopt a lot of horses out because they're going back out to be released. Trust me once a wild mustang, always a wild mustang. lol If I go more then a few days without touching him he reminds me of his wild with all kinds of attitude but if I love on him every day he walks up behind me and puts his head on my shoulder and pulls me into him. He also always gives me kisses but I think that's more for the carrots. Lol
There are some lucky ones. You're right about that. And it's not just wild mustangs that get a less than good life. I see people with horses all the time that just make you want to cry. It's sad to see any animal mistreated. And the world Is just full of them. Thank God for people like you and this sanctuary who love and treasure their animals.
Bless those who had the heart and conscience to make this happen!
THANK YOU TO EVERYONE WHO MADE THIS RESCUE POSSIBLE. I AM SO GLAD THAT RED LADY HAD A MALE FOAL TO CARRY ON GOLIATH’s GENES.
❤️❤️👏❤️👏❤️👏❤️👏❤️
Thanks for your concern
No, in sanctuaries all males are castrated. Their mission is to let them live out their lives free yet monitored for any care needed - shots, hooves, etc. Never another foal. They need room to rescue more in danger.
@ruthmoonstruck5947 - Did you not watch the part that says that Red Lady *was pregnant* with Goliath's foal *before* being captured? Foals are in gestation for 11-12 months. Goliath was gelded (castrated) when captured by the BLM, so Bodhi is their last foal together.

I live in wyoming. I was with my grandpa. We was driving on the road and I look over and see a pack of wild horses. A pack of like 30 of them. It was so beautiful. There was 4 babys. I came home. it was a month and I call my grandpa to say hi and see if he had seen wild horses. He said the BMI did a round up of the wild horses. He said that they try to get all of the horse but they couldn't get them all. I was so look happy and sad at the same time that some horses got away and most of them got caught. That was last year. I have been on Facebook and saw that one of the pack of horses had baby's. So I hope in the future that we can save the horse's. I am not vegin. Like to save the horse's.🐴🐴🐴🐴🐴🐴🐴🐴🐴
@uh wot umm no. I wouldn't
@@wolfobrien1113 I agree with you!!
Omg why don’t they leave them alone 😢😭😭
@@wowso4 bc they would overpopulate and starve.
Instead of pack, its herd but awww thats so cute and cool
Looks like a strong line of Bashkir curly in the stallion. Absolutely gorgeous. Thank you.
Heather Jordan yes they are both curly mustangs - so beautiful
Wow !! Just what I thought when I saw the stallion. Learned recently that the Basir Curly was developed through Mustangs... amazing gene pool, yes
Yeah I thought so too when I saw him.
This should be made a movie! Such a beautiful story!
This reminds me of the movie Spirit stallion of the cimmeron! With Goliath being Spirit and Red lady being Rain
Edit: OMG 81 likes and 6 comments *and* a heart?!? I didn’t know so many people had the same passion as me!
I let my cousin borrow Spirit years ago and she never returned it I loved that movie it was my favorite :( the end
Spaghetti Sunday well you can always download it online now :)
I borrowed mine a friend and she broke the DVD. :( But I bought it on Amazon for a little money! :D ♥
Yes
My absolute favorite movie
Goliath had excellent confirmation, he is a heavily muscled horse. I would say he's a Bashkir Curly.These horses have great endurance, strong legs that never go lame and are hypoallergenic for humans. They tolerate cold better than other breeds and are easy to train, very intelligent. Goliath should not have been castrated but instead used in a breeding program to strengthen the wild horses still in the wild and improve our own weeker horse breeds. Too many of the wild horses are fine boned and scrawny. The BLM don't recognize the contributions this horse could have made even to the Bashkir curly community who want to continue the best of this rare breed. The BLM should be dissolved, they dislike horses. Horses in their care are always abused
@Gathering No Moss Bashkir Curly is a race created from wild horses with curly fur. It has nothing to do with the Bashkir breed from Russia. You can read that anywhere.
It might be his winter coat making him curly
Yeah..
BLM is corrupt which should be recognized. Our country is led by greed. Nice there are good hearted people out there. BLM is just one of the worst groups around.
Goliath got castrated?! Is that why the narrator said "final foal"?!
I love that line. It's good to know that there's wild horses out there running free " even if we never see them" I love that!
We owe so much to wild horses. It's been a way of life before cars..it's our turn to support and protect them..I love that fact that this story had a beautiful ending..although I know so many do not...thank you for your commitment and compassion for these beautiful and wonderful animals.
Horse are so relational! They love to be together, and love each other fiercely. Their markings are all unique and special. I’m so happy he was reunited with Red Lady.
They ploughed our fields they delivered our food they enabled us to travel. They took our armies to war. Participated in sport. We owe the horse so much. What a way to treat our friend
I cried watching this
They are our heritage
This is why I always donate
No human or animals should ever be treated like this
Maria Stutz horses do better around cattle , they aren't so eager to escape
Glad you said human.
Honestly, I don't know anymore.
That’s the most beautiful thing I have ever seen. Thank you for being the ones who cared enough for this to happen.
This so beautiful. I wasn’t expecting to but I actually teared up at their meeting. God bless the people who help beauties like these.

How do you know that your captured horse is 'happy" living in a 4 acre paddock?
Well it's better than being in dog food. 4 acres is a really nice pasture. Thank you for saving her.
@@katinss9983 it is a really nice pasture it has trees and ponds she hardly knows the difference she runs freely with a few other wild rescues and they all get along we have always check on them we have cameras aswell they are very happy it is definitely better than stalled and trained or living in small corals or becoming dog food I didn't release her again because of these rounds up she does run freely and is happy and that's a guarantee
@@cjd5235 no problem!
Thats awesome :D
Just let them all be free again.. it breaks my heart

Mine too 😞
The problem is that they need to do population control in a different way.
let's leave this city okay? That might be true but I think it’s pretty cruel to do that.. I think humans need population control..
@@gismo8334Any living needs population control to be honest.
let's leave this city okay? Yah that’s true
That story is almost the same as spirit’s story
i love that film :)
@@jobres ikr it’s such a good movie
Excellent movie, rewatched the other week
Hi, dear friend stay happy stay safe stay connected dear especially animal lovers thanks #domestictv
yes but it wasn't gelded😅. And the cowboys captured only him, not his entire herd...
(P.S.: Anyway.... I love that movie too! :-D And on this june, after more then 15 years they are doing a sequel with his son! I am so happy for this, since I have been waited this movie since I was 5 years old! (actually I am 18) )
Thank you for uniting Red Lady with her Goliath. They and all the wild horses deserve to be free.
This reunion is so beautiful, blessings to all you who made it possible.
Oh my this was absolutely beautiful of made me cry seeing him run to her! I know all animals can create special bonds but this is just breathtaking!
Sometimes I feel the same, "taking off to the distance, as far away from people, as I can get."
What beautiful horses, thank you for looking after them. It is so awful that anyone would want to capture wild horses.
Well done! Amazing video of Goliath, Red Lady and Bhodie. Thank you for your commitment to our wild Mustangs! We must all step up and fight for their rights for they cannot do it without us.
I want to get rid of all the people that kill horses and hurt them!
Are you vegan?
Lol won’t do that if you still continue to eat meat
Sophia !
What does being a vegan have anything to do with not supporting this shit lol
@@nukeiza The assertion is that raising cattle on the land is more important than the mustangs (also elk, deer, bison and pronghorn by the way). It's disingenuous to suggest frikkin VEGANISM is the purity test for whether or not you care about wildlife, since chickens, hogs and other agricultural animals don't need nearly the amount of space that cattle do. Even eliminating beef from your diet isn't necessary, but our demand for it is too great, and it effects a long list of things beyond wildlife. If we all simply committed to eating beef no more than once or twice a week, the benefits to the environment, the economy and our health would be enormous.
Some people don’t deserve horses
A wonderful reunion and happy ending for these two beauties. God love them. Thank you Skydog Sanctuary for making their spirits free once again.
Hi pretty lady. How are you doing today? And how is the family and the weather over there??
Thank you skydog ranch for what you do, I'm 70 years old and rode horses from the time I could get on one until I was around 17 loved horses more than anything, broke horses for the saddle n bridle, y'all are a rare breed Todo what y'all do, God bless you in your journey, the horses were there first and should have been left alone. Again thank y'all for the love you have for the horses.
Not directed to SkyDog. I absolutely appreciate what you do for the horses. They deserve to live too ❤

Happy as I am, I live in the Netherlands, where there are no wild horses, except the Konik horses, who live in a protected nature reserve. They can live there forever in freedom.❤️
Just a shame that rewilding exercise wasn't thought out properly :'(

It’s important to know the wild Mustangs are out there! Even if we never see them. I LOVE THAT!!!
We have them here in the Book Cliff range Western Colorado
Thank you for helping these magnificent animals. Humans could learn so much from animals just by observation. Too bad that too many are too arrogant. I am sure that these fortunate horses who you have rescued appreciate everything that you have done for them.
Great story! I'm so glad that you were able to reunite them again. It's a shame that people round these magnificent animals up using helicopters. It's inhumane and cruel! Good to know that there is still people out there that are fighting to preserve history by helping these beautiful animals. They were here first and their freedom shouldn't be taken away!!
Bless you Skydog Sanctuary ~ Bless you
Good to know that people care for these wild horses.
May God bless you with your work and provide you with all necessary resources!!!
What a beautiful love story. It makes me so sad and incredibly angry that these wonderful beings are rounded up in such a way...their freedom ripped away. They deserve so much more.
Thank you sky -dog. Why can’t people just leave them beautiful horses alone.there is so much land out there for the wild horses 🐴 an other live stock they are only looking after their family an what’s best for them same as what you or I would do to look after our love one . So please let them be with their family we have no right to separate them. Why don’t the government go after the the mistreatment ones an save them instead an give them a chance to live an love 💕 like these beautiful wide horses. Thank you 🙏 again Sky- Dog for saving these amazing an beautiful horses ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICES SKYDOG SANCTUARY ~ YOU GUYS ROCK AND ARE LIFE SAVERS!
Goliath and Red Lady embody the supernatural power and pull of love to stay connected to Spirit; to your family, your purpose in life, and the very force of Life. Huge acknowledgement to the creators of this film, Skydog, and bringing awareness of the impact competing interests have on the beings that inhabit natural environments. How inspiring and encouraging to be free again!
Well done! So happy for this little family. For the ones we rescue... Heart broken in a million pieces for all who lost their wild lives and loves.

This video made me cry sad and happy tears. Thank you for reuniting these two. There are actually good people left in this world❤
Thank you so much for all that you do and the joy you bring to horses who thought they had lost it all. Thank you so much.
Edit: Anyone else come here from Rick's video on his Think Like A Horse channel? No? Just me?
I am late to this story. Thank you for reuniting these two beauties and letting them be free. BLM should be ashamed. Why are they allowed to do these despicable acts? It breaks my heart that humans are so selfish and won't even share the world with beautiful sensitive animals who are worth so much more than us.
@LunaBC Hey stupid, check the Wild horse population, check our population.We suck.
Big tears!!! Well done for reuniting them. So beautiful. How dare they castrate him!!
Really ... they dare to castrate to keep numbers in check .
You are right
Brooks Equine so castrate them all! Are you kidding me!
They have a small sanctuary. They need to keep numbers in check to take in more horses.
There is nothing more breathtaking than seeing wild horses galloping freely. 😍🐎
Thank you so much for helping these majestic animals live out their lives like they should! Mustangs free always!
Hello violet crystal, how are you doing today?
These beautiful creatures deserve to have their land and freedom.
Humans must unite to protect the rights and freedoms of all living beings! Thank God for the kind humans in this story! 🙏 May kind hearts prevail!! Goliath has touched so many hearts, and Red Lady deserves to have her king by her side! Looking forward to a bright future for the baby fawns 💕💕💕
Thank you very match for this beautiful thing you do with horses. I cry when i saw this. God bless you and your lovely spirit. From Sweden.
Watched it 4 times and cry every time! Just heartbreaking what the ones that aren't alive or caged for life had to miss because of greed! God bless what you do!
This is so sad. People don't realize what they do wrong. Imagine you were a horse running free. The whole land to yourself and your family. Suddenly you lose it all. Horses are the most beautiful animals that rhome this world. The minute you see them you fall in love with them. Horses don't deserve to be treated like this. Horses are not like any other animal that you see in this world, their hearts are as big as the universe. I love horses and I hate the way people treat them. I don't understand how someone could think that it is ok to take horses away from their family and their freedom. I cry every time I see animals being tooken away or being abused.
It’s not that they don’t know. It’s that they don’t care. It’s all about profit.
I've seen them run free and the memory brings happy tears to my eyes after 50 years . Thank you for this presentation .
I’ve seen Australian brumbies run free. And it’s such an awe inspiring sight
I love this story, a gorgeous pair of horses that should never have been rounded up and separated. I know you are a beacon of hope for these beautiful creatures and thank goodness.
You mispelled "never should have been on this continent in the first place". There you go.
Amen to god's gift of horses , and I love Goliath and Red Lady , May the world continued to be blessed by these legends
Mustangs are love whether cars or wild horses 🐎 they are beautiful creatures on this land with their rhythm speed and steps ❤️💕🇵🇰
Wonderful. God bless Skydog ranch, it's such an important project and it has been so sweet looking at Goliath and Red Lady together once again.
This is an issue that has not had enough attention! Thank you!
That is so heartbreaking. Shouldn’t be allowed makes me sob heartbreaking
So we should let invasive species persist as long as they're "cute" huh? What a fantastic custodian of nature you are, Doreen! A true pillar of intellect.

Bless you for your work. I bust into tears at this story first of horror then of joy to hear they were united and that there was a new foal
I'm glad I live in Arizona where we get to see wild horses often. No one bothers them...they're a thing of beauty.
It's so heartbreaking to see our majestic horses treated so poorly. Thank you for getting these two together!
hardly treated poorly!
Hello ja moon, how are you doing today?
Watched this 2 times, cried both of them. Thank you for sharing, I will be looking more into this issue that I really know nothing about. These beautiful creatures deserve peace and to live in freedom, just as we all wish to do.
My heart is filled with joy knowing they are too together again and hopefully for life
Great film and story of these 2 horses and their last foal together.
Thank You Skydog Sanctuary.

We get right nasty over dolphins and orcas being kept in captivity. But then I suppose if dolphins and orcas got in mans way of making money they would break up their families too as they have been, till folks took a stand.
Thank you for yohr care of Mustangs.
We worry about orcas, yet all over the world there are tens of millions of horses being kept in tiny stalls, bits forced into their mouths and steel shoes nailed to their feet so humans can bounce their useless fat asses on their backs for recreation. Surprise, surprise, every one of the horses that people own were separated from their mothers at young ages, torn from their herds and sold back and forth. Horse ownership is mindless brutality even though the people who own them claim to love them, they are just beings that have been reduced to generational slavery.
Ocean animals do not belong on land. That is just straight up inhuman to do and the worst humanity we could ever do to these ocean animals. All for our pleasures, makes me so ill. Do you know thanks to Sea world our Southern Resident American Orcas who live along the Washington coast are endangered? Man ruined these beautiful, so very important animals lives and destroyed their families and put them in line for extinction. All for greed.. I swear, I'm so disappointed and angry at what humans have become.
Horses are the one animal in our existence who deserves to live out their lives running free in this huge country of ours. Away from man's hands.
Bravo skydog Well done for giving these two horses freedom again
Thankyou for making this happen,for them to be reunited,freed and many more. May god bless you for your kind actions that i hope you will keep doing so for these mustangs.
I can't believe they gelded him. Those are good genes. 25!!! Wow! There are only so many horses who can live in so many acres, so please do your research before just wanting horses to stay out on the wild lands. I want that as well, but it does have to be managed somehow....hopefully with a discerning and compassionate viewpoint. This is a beautiful story with incredible film footage! Thank you for putting it together and educating the public.
Clover Cochran very very sad.
Clover Cochran Finally someone with common sense!
He was gelded because it was fully expected that he would live out his life in the holding pens and it is routine to geld all stallions for the safety of all the horses kept there. Rarely do you find a stallion in the pens unless you get there after a round up before gelding day when they do them all in one day.
Will there be other horses on the ranch. The reason I ask is where will little bodie find his mate once he has grown?
tramsfetz So well said.
Thank your for sharing the story and am so glad to of been a small part of this. I can't donate a lot but know even small donations add up. I hope this brings new people into the fight. We all need to fight for our horses.
Capturing wild horses and taking them from there home and the herd is so wrong .it makes me so angry that the people are than using that land for livestock. Some people are so cruel to animals
(Edit) thanks for the likes
At least they didn't just wipe out the entire population like the Quagga.
Stephen Nelson they're neutering every mustang they catch. They're effectively killing off their bloodlines. The populations aren't being wiped out at first glance, because they're still alive. But once the neutered mustangs die without breeding their entire population would die with them. They're effectively sentencing the mustang's bloodlines to death.
Blue Bowser Well, many of the captured mares are pregnant. so all hope is not lost. some of those babies will be males. Because these wild herds have survived for so long in the wild, we already know they have excellent genetics.
@@turkeyburglarjones6148 feral refers to one ( an animal ) who has escaped capture or domestication. Theses horse have not escaped capture and were never domesticated. Granted maybe a 150+ years ago some of there ancestors were let lose or escaped. But not these creatures. They were born out there. And that's where they need to stay. We have no need for more farm land. We need more educated farms will to practice cleaner more value added methods of farming. The great American bison lived on the lands of the west by the millions. Till man killed them. Smart practices in farm can easily support a ridiculously large herds of livestock and wild horses. Man is always trying to make things easier and more cost effective. Mother nature has her way as well. Work with nature and you will receive a far greater result then trying to control her for profit.
@@turkeyburglarjones6148 dam didn't know horses live 100s of years. Like I said before there domesticed ancestors are long gone. There for they are wild. The pigs of the south aren't called feral pigs. There called wild hogs. Same deal. Only difference is horses are not necessarily as destructive. Will also they live in a land that easily able to support them with mans livestock. Yes it would take more work and yes you'd have to me smart. And might have to keep smaller herds of livestock but isn't to worth it to keep these animals free. You don't see ppl rounding up 1000s of deer bc they got into a corn field. There not messing with the bison or the different species of deer that live in the same area. Would you truly wish to wipe clean the west for farming. Just destroy Nature's beauty to put a steak on someone's plate.
Supporting Skydog Sanctuary is a given...I am a Combat Disabled Viet Nam Veteran.
Making ends meet is tuff...But I do still have contacts with some BLM field agents.
No promises but they will listen to me.
