Cooling Off The Wild Way

Gene Praag

Cooling Off The Wild Way

Wild horses in Utah cooling off in the watering hole. Each band takes their turn at the watering hole. As one band of horses finishes getting a drink and cooling off another band will move in. Usually the watering hole is where I find the most activity going on. If a band takes to long the other band will move in and this is where most of the fights break out.

    That churned up water! Amazing unexpected colors, and the pawing at it so remarkable in this rare photograph. Where are you when you take on these wild horses, Geno, can you be as close as you seem and they’re learned to accept your presence? You must be one of the band to them.

    Love it! My mare will do the same thing and she’s not wild. So, I don’t ride her into water anymore unless I want a bath too.
