It’s hard to believe that there are actually people out there who want to kick wild horses off of the public lands that they’ve called home for so many years. With their grazing areas getting smaller and smaller with each passing month, these animals have been forced to do whatever it takes to find grazing lands, often coming into contact with humans who don’t want them there.
Wild horses are slowly becoming a thing of the past, but thankfully there are groups like the Montgomery Creek Ranch, who keep their land pristine and enclosed to ensure the safety of these beautiful wild horses.
While the horses aren’t necessarily free to roam wherever they please, that’s an unfortunate but necessary state of affairs simply to keep these magnificent creatures safe from people who would either try to steal them or even hurt them for their own selfish reasons. On top of keeping the animals safe from cars and busy roads, these horses have acres and acres of land to run free in safety in this beautiful sanctuary.
And to make matters even better for them, from time to time the ranchers will capture these beautiful creatures to give them special health check-ups just to ensure that they’re as healthy as they are happy. The huge herd in the video below has just been freed after getting a trim. While it was certainly difficult to calm these wild animals down for their trim, not a single hoof was injured and now they’re back in perfect shape to gallop as far as their legs will take them!
