We go to a truck stop that has a wild horse family that visits every morning. Walking back from the store at 3 am and hearing them whinny not 20 feet away is amazing 😊
Always pained by the huge losses from the roundups, but love seeing the ones that are left and the new ones! Thank you so much for your beautiful video👍
Dear Karen, My name is Laura B and I live in Tucson Arizona. Thank you for bringing wild horses to those of us who can't get out there to see them. I hope that you stay safe along with the horses we love 🙂
Hi Karen Laura B again. I don't Mean to bug. Just wanted to thank you for the reply. I am hoping to get to Colorado one of these days to see horses . I have Loved equines of all kinds all my life. I currently have a mule that I have been riding for the last 12- 13 years. We ride in the Tucson rodeo Parade every year and all over the desert. Big fan , I'm glad I found you on utube
Thanks, Robin. Yes, it is a lot of work traveling and looking for horses, plus all the hundreds of hours editing the videos. It is a labor of love and I hope I can celebrate our beautiful wild horses and help to educate people on what is going on with the unecessary roundups.
I'm an artist with a vivid imagination, but I see wonder in the world around me every day. I think it is a blessing that the Lord would make me smile with a horse in the clouds and that I can share His goodness with others. 😊
Not to be rude or disrespectful but if there's that many acreage there why are they rounding up horses and taking them off that doesn't seem like it's a necessity to me they need to leave them there and leave them alone. And thank you for sharing this documentary of the sand wash basin and the wild horses
We're having a winter that's much closer to what was a "normal" winter. If there were still 1000+ horses going into this winter, can you imagine how many horses would have starved to death? We're expecting to lose 40% of our overpopulated elk herd alone. Winter determines what can and can't exist here, it's just that we don't get the winters we used to as often. But they do come. They can either go to good homes or be winter kill. That's how nature sets it up.
There is nothing worse than seeing animals starving to death because of lack of vegetation. Our grasses here in Colorado are not super lush, all though high in nutrients. Its a delicate balance. There are many of these mustangs that are being gentled and trained for riding... Its undeniably difficult to be able to just do herd management and not see the not so nice side of it though..
Picasso passed away the winter of 2019/2020. So sad. He was so magnificent. I never got to see him when I was there in fall of 2019 because he was so elusive. I did get to see his son Van Gogh before he died.
Each herd has its own personality. Some are shy, others are more bold. Thanks for the video. I grew up in Utah. I saw wild horses a lot. In fact, I knew people who would go and collect the choice animals they wanted.
Thanks for this! Don't know if you mentioned it but what's the best time of year to see the horses. I live in Colorado Springs and want to make the 8-9 hour drive. Any tips once I'm there? Thank you!
I like to visit in spring around the middle to end of May. Right now the roads are not passable because of mud. There was a lot of snow melt this year. If you wait too long you get into the biting bugs and heat that will send you packin'. Whenever you go be sure to be prepared with plenty of water, food, extra gas and a spare tire. Since the 2021 roundup most of the horses are on the far north and northeast end of the basin. Best of everything to you.
I swear, I hate these helicopter captures so much!!😡😢 I have some questions for you: 1-Can there be herds of just males? 2-If there is, do the males get along well? 3-When foals are born in herds, does the dominant stallion get along well with them? 4-Do wild horses have many predators?
In answer to your questions. 1&2) I don't know of any male only herds. There are bachelor bands within the herd, mostly younger stallions around 3-6 yrs old who haven't aquired any mares yet. They get along fine and do a lot of practice sparring. 3) The dominant stallion protects the young foals and treat them with great affection at times. (watch my video on Traveler) 4) The predators depend on the location of the herd. Possible Mountain Lions, Grizzly Bears or wolves, but most herds only have man as their predator. I hope this answers your questions. Many young and very old horses die from the harsh cold and snow over the winter.

Thanks, enjoyed the video
You're welcome!

Yes, it's so heartbreaking to lose so many.
Love your videos Karen. Love seeing all the beautiful wild horses still living free.
Thanks Shirley! They are even more stunning in person!
I'm impressed at how healthy they look. Thank you for sharing your journey with us ❤
You're welcome! I'm happy to share my passion for the wild horses with you😊. I hope it is catching!

WHAT A REMARKABLE IMAGE TO CAPTURE, A RUNNING HORSE IN THE CLOUDS
I WONDER THE REAL MEANING BEHIND THAT? OR WAS IT JUST FOR YOU
I'm an artist with a vivid imagination, but I see wonder in the world around me every day. I think it is a blessing that the Lord would make me smile with a horse in the clouds and that I can share His goodness with others. 😊

Because the herds get too many for food resources.
Many would die from starvation.

It’s the alternative to hunting. Hunting is how we keep wild animals in population control so they all don’t die from starvation.

@karenleute5377 because the blm kiss the ass of the ronchers you only have enough grazing guess who gets it horses don't have lobbyists
🐴🐎♥️😘😍🥰🤠
I haven't gotten to follow anyone for a while, so may I ask (what happened to Picasso ? is he still around?
Picasso passed away the winter of 2019/2020. So sad. He was so magnificent. I never got to see him when I was there in fall of 2019 because he was so elusive. I did get to see his son Van Gogh before he died.
So glad to see the continuation of the Picasso bloodline. He’s my RUclips channel photo. And my computer screen saver.

poor things cant escape capture even way out there
You know I'm partial to Palominos but Lancelot was beautiful!
How are horses surviving there, I can't see any grass.
Protect our mustangs
💔💔💔
p̲r̲o̲m̲o̲s̲m̲ 😳
Some are being auctioned off along with other blm mustangs right now
