Wild Horses

Paperback
(Lorenz Books, March 15, 2002)
Herds of feral horses such as the mustangs of America, Australian brumbies, and the white horses of the Carmargue in France, roam free on the world's grasslands. Wild horses are tough and hardy, with keen senses, and strong community bonds. Their beauty, speed, and power evoke everything that people love about horses. Nature Watch Wild Horses investigates the lives of these graceful creatures and their close relatives such as wild asses and zebras. Amazing wildlife photography takes you to the center of the herd while the text explains clearly what is going on -and why. There are special features on particular aspects of horse life, such as the birth of a foal or the migration of a herd of zebras, while myth boxes introduce folk tales and legends about horses from diverse cultures.
