What a beautiful sight. Remarkable. What a freedom for these horses in their natural habitat. We did this tour of these horses from Corolla, and I will never forget it. I highly recommend this wild horses tour.
Nothing natural about this habitat. They are horses left behind by the Spaniards. Their pretty destructive tbh but too graceful of a animal to exterminate
It's really hard to leave the group, but he left. Kicked out. Beautiful strong horse will fare better with his own group he forms himself. Thank you for this inspirational video!

@@myaccount2825 Yes thank you 😊 because ❤ Jesus IS the answer and THE ONLY way to heaven 🙏 and I sincerely pray His sheep hear His call and leave their old group and find the REAL WAY and REAL TRUTH in Jesus Name Amen 🙏
The wild horses on the Outer Banks acting wild! Gorgeous video. Stallions fighting. The winner then leads 'his' herd away heading South. The loser stays behind and swims for a bit, then leaves and heads North all by himself. You should consider sharing it with the Corolla Wild Horse Foundation and the Currituck Visitor Bureau at the NC/VA line o show at their sites for all to enjoy.
do you know much about this herd??? They sure are beautiful... Hope no one was hurt ... THat was crazy! THe one that ran off alone is such a gorgeous boy!
I'm quite surprised that I can't find any comments saying "oh nooo, how could you film that, you should separate them, save that poor horse, animal abuser!!". If this video was on Instagram most people would write nonsense like that. Powerful horses, beautiful scenery and amazing captured moment!😊
I'm sure the camera was zoomed in. It is actually illegal to get within a certain distance of them, but idiots do it anyway without regards to the consequences.
A lot of the barrier islands from Georgia to Virginia have wild horses. But because people want to go to the beach the horses become used to the people. It can be a dangerous affair when people get to comfortable approaching these horses.
I get that it's difficult for some folks to watch. I think y'all will agree that, as humans, it's not ours to judge. And we always have a choice to watch or not watch. The thing that makes it distasteful for some viewer is really about what it means to them when they see it. Not what is means to the horse or to be a horse.
Probably a colt that is now old enough to be a challenge to the lead stallion. He’ll either go find his own mares, or will join a group of similar colts
Yes. This is the normal horse language and instincts. This is a wild herd, so this happens every time a new batch of colts are born and grow into puberty. It's actually the perfect way to keep the herds growing. ❤️❤️
Красота, морские ванны принимают, слышала, что это делается для профилактики болезни ног, копыт! Мы были бы тоже не против на песочке поваляться и на волнах покачаться. Везёт некоторым красавчикам!!
Defeated horse be like: "Ya'll go ahead, I'm just going to wash these wounds off in the surf for a few minutes, I'll catch up later. Save me some beach grass." I bet with enough length on a longboard I could teach those horses how to surf. Hang Four hooves man, surf's up, we've got some gnarly waves today! Righteous! We have a farm in VA, I need a breeding pair of those island horses, they are so beautiful. Time to build up the population, and maintain the genetic diversity.
Amen! That was a dream of mine until last weekend. I have been searching for a property with a small stable and pastures to purchase. I had found two different places which are perfect. I don’t intend to ride,; I just wanted to provide a couple of rescues a safe home. Then I started researching horse care and learned just how ignorant I am about horses. I thought a couple of horses that had lived on beach grass and scrub would thrive in a pasture with real grass. After reading about the care and expense of keeping horses I realized my dream of providing sanctuary to a couple of rescues isn’t financially possible. The vet and farrier visits, food, and medication simply do not fit in my retirement budget. I found a volunteer organization who provide supplemental care to the Corolla wild horses and they have an “adoption” program to raise money. Having a picture of a wild horse will be as close as I get. ) :
@@graciecarre1413 wild horses can be very dangerous. I mean, who wants to risk being seriously injured by a fifteen hundred or so pound animal!? This is just what happens between male wild animals. They will fight for mates and many other reasons
@Brooke Eckstein your coment makes no Sense and yes i would risk my life to save the animal bc i care gor it so fuck u and yes i hope u did lodlse a extra 40000,0000000 brain cells
@@graciecarre1413 Nature don't need us to interfere! Just to stay back. And watch. Or not. If you prefere so! It may looks cruel somethimes but this is from one perspective. I don't like watching when one animal kill or eat another, but this is natural and cruel and beautiful at the same time! And fights can be ritual or real. Even dogs who live together and like each other play this 'war games'! As long as all of them enoy it there is no need to interfere.
The one that got ran connected a couple good kicks at the end.. the last one caught the stallion square in the jaw.. that's one reason he gave u and went back to his mares..
I don’t think him getting hit in the jaw had anything to do with him going back to the mares. He made the little one do exactly what he wanted which was to move away. If that stallion really wanted to, he could have kept going but he wanted the other stallion to learn his place and his place was not with the herd anymore.
I had no idea there are wild horses in North Carolina. I just stumbled upon this video. One of the most beautiful things I've ever seen. Do you see them often? Thank you, Coleen from Portland Oregon.
@@coleenoliva291 Hi, Coleen. Yep. Almost every day. There a few colonies of them, including here in Corolla, and then some on Ocracoke Island to the south. Best time to see them is when tourists aren't in town, so September through May.
Horse in water washing wounds. Salt water great for healing. That weird noise the horse made before he ran down the beach is actually air trapped in his sheath getting moved around by running. Both those horses suffered a big bite at the withers. Horses bite there as it is a sensitive spot. Maybe management of these horses needs to catch some of those stallions and geld them.
OMG there’s actually people saying that we need to help them or put them down or the person recording is cruel for not saving the horses. Well guys, it’s part of nature. That is completely normal. Just think of it like kids arguing with their parents. Are we just gonna put the kids down? No lol. This is just part of life. Now the young stallion can find/start a new herd. It’s just a part of nature and wildlife.
I don't know their complete history, but these are the wild horses of the Outer Banks, NC. I believe originally left by the Spanish. They are now under strict protection. That will give you a place to start research. Hope that helps.
I love how there’s still people in the water with stallions fighting with no people like leadin them around with a halter (I’m exaggerating people obviously I know there wild😝)

The outer banks is an amazing place! I was lucky enough to be able to rent a house on this beach for a week a few years ago, we saw the horses every day! I cant wait to go back, one of the few beaches that is still secluded and limited to those who have a capable 4x4 vehicle
