Beautiful tribute to bucking horses at RodeoHouston

- A beautiful tribute to bucking horses has proven to be a popular addition to RodeoHouston each night, even bringing some rodeogoers to tears. It starts with a single horse named Hostage that runs riderless into the spotlight.
I'm not a cowboy but how could you not love horses. Man's other best friend.
I personally know many stock contractors that raise bucking bulls and broncs, they have plenty of pasture to graze on, visited regularly by vets, well taken care of, brushed at least once a week, and the relationship that a contractor has with his animals is amazing, if only is humans could live as good as this beautiful stock. These horses are damn sure not sent to slaughter, they live out there live breeding and in a pasture, they truly love what they do, these horses are among the most valuable of horses
Most, as in 99.9% of rodeo horses are sent off the slaughter when they don't buck good enough, they can't produce more colts. On a side note - you can't brush a wild horse. Go research slaughter houses and stop protecting evil doers.
@@barrysmith2109 lol shut up.
@@arizonasucculent8632 horse haters always make deliberately ignorant remarks, they can't help themselves. I think they have a secret fetish for abuse so they seek out , and see abuse in everything.
Do rodeo Broncs have names like bulls? I kinda think bulls get more love and appreciation, not sure if it's just me, but maybe you could inform me on that haha.
@@Anastasia2048 the broncos do have names, the bulls are much more expensive.
Well said Mr, announcer, they are BEAUTIFUL indeed.
What a beautiful sight! Glad I don't have to ride them. But I appreciate another of God's wonderful design and I know you do Vaneta. Thank you for sharing.
It gives me chills
THAT is awesome! Chills indeed!
that strawberry roan pinto I think is stunning I wonder where is bloodlines come from
Very beautiful horses.
This is so awesome
Easily my favorite HLSR intro ever!!
Great video. One can clearly see that these horses are very well taken care of. They have shiny coats, smooth gaits, great confirmation and are well fed. Thank you for sharing
Need more videos like this
Ats is a awesome family of bucking horses 🐎🐎🐎👍👌
That is some top notch horse flesh there.
Love this comment
These horses are so many their stallions mares and baby foal
Ok so all you people who are are thinking that you are so smart about rodo you are so wrong I am a barrel racer and I no haw they take care of the livestock so please stop spreading hate this video is so amazing 😉
I know it is so wrong
Do you use spurs?
@@joligra yes I do most of the time not when I compete
I wish Europe has such beautiful horses
Pretty sure they do
They aren't starved, they aren't stalled in boxes and suffer from extreme bordom, yes they are bucked, but do yall see their coats? They are shiny and brilliant, that's a sign of great health, and they live better than most show horses! They live a natural horse life out in a pasture with their herd and r not abused at any respectable rodeo. They are extremely valuable and no stock contractor would want their horses injured! Horses do break down when they are performance horses, just as of they were show jumpers, barrel horses, or race horses. It's preventable but shit happens. These horses r treated like horse royalty so don't bullshit and say these horses r treated like dirt. That's what u see in movies giving rodeo a bad name. *I'm not responding to any hate because what I say is what I think*
I wonder...are those animals are excited to do the bucking thing, or are they just endure it because they're forced to do it? I never tought that, it's this hard to coope the fact, these animals actualy FEEL things, they can remember from joy to pain, have toughts...! :( Not just tools, supposed to endure the stress, people's need of adrenalin-rush! I hope one day you can learn to thinking outside that box you're locked yourself into.
Mallory S idiot. Straps, spurs and oh yeah how bout the electric shock as it leaves the gate? It's about $$ and if a horse dies or is injured well there's another in the wings....
if you call what happens to them in the rodeo a life of "royalty "
I dare you to share the same life.
Royalty that's so ludicrous i don't know if I should laugh or cry. I would like to see any "royal" shocked, spurred, whipped, etc..
ahhh to live like royalty!!!
Royalty hahahahaha wow that's rich.
Kreepy KatPasta, city slickers and treehuggers have no clue how stupid they sound when they make up lies thinking these animals are abused when they aren't.
Jaden Wolfe ha ha ha I owned hoses all my life. Grew up with cowboys and rodeos. I know the "truth"... oh and I have seen million dollar mares and gelding who are not useful any more from the rodeo and racetrack, at the auctions..... oh yeah I went to them all the time. I may have seen more "truth" than you. The majority of the people who own these horses (and other animals)make $$$ and do NOT ever keep and pay for a useless animal to live a beautiful dream life for the rest of its life... it's just a useless thing then, a waste of $$ to be disposed of asap. Don't kid yourself and lie to the people who don't know the truth.
I am not some PETA bleeding heart, I rode and showed my horses, and believe in that. But I'm not stupid. I know a business does not make $ being loving and sentimental, and make no mistake, These are not cherished pets loved and coddled. They are a commodity to them. Only useful loved and cherished if they are making them $$$ then they are disposable.....
Kreepy KatPasta, hey guess what, so have I. Rodeo animals although don't go to the slaughterhouse. I probably owned more horses than you did and had to take care of them everyday. Don't kid yourself, funny
I love horses 🐴
Beautiful
👍🏼 I should have been a cowgirl. I love horses.
Omg I was there at that time
Bloody Crazy Cool Awesome 👌🏻
Sure hope they ALL are indeed cared for their whole life and not just the top bucking horses. I would expect some after a bucking career could be still trained for other activities or just be nice companion horses. See lots of draft horse blood, which can make powerful and calm natured horses. Beautiful animals.
These types of horses are way too valuable to be used for anything else, that's why some are retired early
Mares rule!
They have amazing coats they’re not skinny they’re take good care of yes they buck but they were made for this they’re family and you take good care of family
My rescue horse is bucking stock.
What's with all the killjoys in the comment section?
Cadence Wallace I love rodeos... there are a lot of killjoys...
they’re people who are dedicated to fighting for horses who are bucking horses. alot of people feel horses are not supposed to be treated this way. including myself. i agree this rodeo is not nearly as bad as others, but bucking is dangerous for people and horses. and the way horses are treated after their bucking careers is sometimes horrid, which is why i can’t support it. one of the ways you can see the saddness in this video is when they flee from the mounted horseman, which means they feelthat they are a predator, or atleast someone who must be avoided. this should not be the case. horses are heard animals, they should be comfortable around that horse and rider, but because the horse has a rider, they flee. thats a red flag.
Killjoy = deliberately ignorant
@@bumblebee2657 these horses get treated far better than you think when they're retired. When they're retired majority of the time they're put out to the very same pasture they were born in.
I'm not urging you to support rodeos and change your mind about rodeos, but I at least would like you to at least get some education about the sport of bronc riding in general
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Beutiful
I saw Fallon Taylor
All you Rodeo haters out there, GET A GRIP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I've had to say this more than 3x already, but not all rodeos mistreat their animals!!!!! If you want to start a rant about animal abuse, do it in a situation where you can see it with your own eyes!!! You're not welcome here at rodeo Houston!!!
@Camilla Johansson not at my local rodeo they don't!
@@alvarocerritos she secretly loves to see abuse, why else even watch something your feelings say is abuse? They never will spend the time to truly research horse welfare, they don't even like horses enough to do that.
@@ratherbwithhorses I agree
I 💗 Horses from the bottom of my heart....
but *what on earth is it about naming an animal hostage???* I know even a bucking bull with that name. are some of the rodeo folks running out of ideas for names?
There was once a bull in the PBR named Mr Bull
is it me or does he sound like Dutch Van Der Linde in his 30s?
HEY I go to thes EVRY year
Yeah I show at the Houston rodeo!!
the amount of people that think these horses live the golden life just because they aren’t bucking all the time, is absurd. how on earth do you think they get them to perform? very few horses are born actually bucking.
Then how come it's a natural instinct for them? It seems like you have forgotten about the famous phrase "you can lead a horse to water, but you can't make it drink". If these horses don't want to buck, then they're not going to buck. It's that simple.
Ya and where do all those precious souls go when the rodeo is done with them....slaughter sad shit
These horses are retired, and live their lives where they grew up at. We do that with our horses as well. They have served their purpose, now it’s time that I take care of them, as they have taken care of me prior.
Lmfao really i have a clue buddy. Rideo is abusive to all the animals i grew up in Cheyenne Wyoming been around the rodeo shit so ya see i do in fact have a clue. Its all abuse pretty sure you wouldnt like a leather strap tying your privates up. Lol
Ya great idea just keep on breeding horses. Wow hundreds of thousands of horses are slaughtered every year.
all u people that say these horses will be sent to the slaughter house no that won't I'm a fourth generation stock contractor and bullfighter these r horses get the best feed the best hay and the best water so go lie some more about those horses going to the slaughter
They secretly love their lies and thinking about horse abuse. They are sick, and hateful. They probably need horse time, but making a horse be near such haters... that would be abuse
If they abused the horses why would they pay tribute to them? Lol sit down Peta. The strap around them is like us wearing a belt, do your research before you assume things cause you think its abuse. Be up close and see for yourself instead of being on a bandwagon.
The PeTAfiles have a fetish for abuse , it's not about the horse, it's all about themselves
Camilla Johansson I have a feeling you didn’t watch this video and you just went strait to the comments 😂 just look at these horses they look better then most saddle broke horses! And no the flank is not anything close to a corset it wrapped in wool it’s not painful whatsoever. The horses are bred to buck just like a thoroughbred is bred to run. Have you ever seen an Arabian used as a bronc? No because that not what there bred to do🤦♀️ plz plz plz go to a rodeo or get some facts straight. You can’t make someone think there being well cared for they just showed you the horses they look great and do you see any cuts or open wounds? Nope because there not hiding anything and they wanted to show ppl the broncs
Y'all r dumb when they retired they r sent to the pasture and these horses r taken more better care of in the rodeo and outside the rodeo than u take care of ur self
How do you know that these horses will be shipped off to slaughter?
When they get old they are useless, so sending them off to end up as dog meat is the only option.
Horses are not humans to live out their old age as pensioners.
Wes K most aren’t sent to slaughter most live out there live after they retire and die on that ranch from age
Eat more chicken!
Just keep getting your money, fame from these animals, these animals are not free.
They brought a pregnant mare to foal at a rodeo facility? That's messed up. Sure, the horses are treated well while they're performing, but shipping them off to slaughter is certainly not the retirement they deserve.
Jennifer M Treated Well????
They are certainly not sent to slaughter, they live out there life in pasture, I personally know many stock contractors with bucking horses and they do not go to slaughter, these horses are to valuable for slaughter, and the relationships these contractors have with these broncs is amazing
Cameron Winsland What a load of bullshit
MORELIFE any respectable stock contractor does not send bucking horses to slaughter
@@tropicaoptica no bucking horse is sent off to slaughter after they're retired! GET THAT INTO YOUR TINY AND IGNORANT BRAIN
Bullshit they aren't born to buck! They put a strap around their flank and it drives them insane! If you watch before they open the gate to release the horse and rider a man will be holding the strap and pulls it tight as they leave the pen! They risk broken legs and the trauma to them mentally is disgusting.
All horses are born to buck. Some just do it better than others.
You don't know what you are talking about. Bucking is as natural to a horse as breathing is to them; it's a defense mechanism. These horses are selectively bred based on a higher inclination to buck.
Absolutely correct. If horses were "born to buck" they would not need to have a bucking strap cinched tight around them, nor would they need to be shocked with a cattle prod just before leaving the gate as so many "bucking horses" are. If some horses were "born to buck" they would do so without any "encouragement" from the humans who want a show.
RedhorseWoman the flank strap is not tight around them, it's like me or you wearing a belt, the flank strap is usually wrapped with sheepskin, it kinda tickles them where they wanna kick it off, it doesn't bother them at all
Get a grip!!!!😬😤😠😡 All the responses to your lie are more than correct!!! Besides, not all rodeos torture their animals!!
As a country, you would think that humans wouldn't have a need to be entertained by animal abuse and torture. I'll admit these horses looked to be in good shape but rodeos are cruel, they abuse the animals, they shock them. A lot end up with broken bones and once they don't buck good enough are sent off to be slaughtered. Don't pretend that these animals are well kept nor cared for - that's not how rodeos work.
It clearly sounds to me like you don't know anything about the sport at all!
Get your education first, and then you can go out and try making mediocre animal activist statements like the one you just tried to make, because people like you who say rodeos are abusive to animals really annoy me and piss me off!
When they get old they are useless, so sending them off to end up as dog meat is the only option. Horses are not humans to live out their old age as pensioners.
are you being sarcastic? I really can't tell... I've been reading it over and over again to see if you are joking... so can you please tell me if you are or not?
Alphonso Zorro, when tbe horses retire, they live out their lives on the stock contractors place & when they pass away, they are buried in the plot w/the other great horses that's come before them.
I call bullshit! Yes, they were born to buck, and then be slaughtered!
knk4ever83 they are not slaughtered, I know many contractors that raise broncs and they live out there lives on the ranch
How rude can you be?
How wonderful slavery is. These horse will continue to be abused and broken until they die by the hands of their cruel owners. Breeding and killing more of their kind. How beautiful and touching!
Bruh where did you get all these crazy ideas from?😂 idk if you looked at the video but these horses look better then most saddle broke lol they spend most of there life is in a pasture. And they’re not bucked until they can no longer walk there retired as soon as the horse starts slowing down or even before that and yes sadly some ppl do take them to slaughter bit that’s in any equine industry there just as much abuse and slaughters in the English world you can’t pick a side and say once better then the other there’s always gonna be crappy ppl. Luckily retired broncs are rarely sent to slaughter and usually live out there life on the ranch. I’ve been to lots of rodeos and when the gate opens the horse will just stand there or just casually walk out. If the horse doesn’t wanna buck it won’t and it doesn’t get shocked or whipped idk where you guys got the shocking from😂
Clearly sounds to me like you don't know anything about the sport of rodeo whatsoever! People like you who say rodeos are abusive to their animals really annoy me and piss me off!
Get your education first, then you can go out and try making mediocre animal activist statements like the one you just tried to make!
As sweet as the message is, I call bullshit. I have no knowledge of this particular rodeo but I doubt they treat the animals with respect from what I saw. Even in those small clips I could see bucking straps, long shanks on bits, big spurs and pinned ears all leading me to believe that this rodeo is just like the others. Cruel and inhumane. Harasing the horses and bulls to buck, scaring a horse into doing what they want, and dragging calves by the neck all for entertainment.
your an idiot with no experience.
Peanutbutter Pancakes I think your making some of that up cuz I’ll have you know that broncs don’t use bits😂 the strap is covered in wool so it’s not painful it’s more like a big you can’t get at.
I like how you already knew you had no idea what your were talking about, and then to proceeded with telling us in a paragraph how you indeed did not know what your were talking about.
What a load of horse shit,they buck because of the flank strap and risk breaking their legs or worse.Poor things.😢😢😢
More like, poor brain of yours, cuz it doesn't have the knowledge or the experience to actually make a statement like you just did
