Wyoming’s Wild Horses Love To Run And Play Together
Garth Brooks' 1990 album 'No Fences' is the album that changed music history.
This album had songs like:
- Friends In Low Places
- The Thunder Rolls
- Two of a Kind, Workin On A Full House
- Unanswered Prayers
The album also changed how much people knew about Wyoming having wild horses.
Song #6 on the album is titled 'Wild Horses'
The song starts out from a phone booth in Cheyenne, so I'd say the world is probably aware that Wyoming has cool wild horses.
The song continues...
Wild horses keep draggin' me away
And I'll lose more than I'll win someday
Wild horses just stay wild
And her heart is all I break
Wild horses keep draggin' me away
You're welcome. You too will be walking around humming that song all day and I ain't mad about it.
Wyoming is home to may wild horses and they're mostly managed by the Bureau of Land Management.
There are quite a few places in Wyoming you can see them. Here are a few.
- Many of the wild ponies live in the Rock Springs area at the Pilot Butte Wild Horse Loop.
- You can see them in the Pryor Mountains located outside of Lovell.
- McCullough Peaks between Greybull & Cody
- You can also see them in the Wind River Country, in multiple areas.
- Antelope Hills - 60 to 82 horses
- Crooks Mountain - up to 100 horses
- North Lander HMA Complex (Muskrat Basin, Conant Creek, Rock Creek and Dishpan Butte) - about 320 horses
It's quite the sight to be able to watch them in their element. It's really cool to watch them just having fun with each other.
There have been many videos of the horses as of late, as a matter of fact, 60 Minutes just did a feature on them.
