A wise, articulate young man.
I sure thought so!
What a great working experience! In my opinion everyone should be able to have this kind of opportunity to experience this type of living and existing in nature like this. Only the truly lucky ones I suppose...? ❤🌞❤🌞❤
When we learn/choose to exist in their frequency/pace, wild animals will begin to show up whenever we go out in nature. Some people have commented on how this began happening for them just by watching these videos and absorbing what the horses are teaching. So YES it is possible for everyone. xo
Much gratitude for this video. It is my hope that we will all learn to relate to horses (and people) the way this young, soulful man articulates. The old paradigm of dominating and forcing is not appropriate for any sentient beings.
Lovely!!!❤❤❤❤
Just beautiful! You really have this down. Very relaxed atmosphere for a big heard with alfalfa!
Lucky young man ❤️ thoughtful and wise. Good job all of you
I heard it is better to open the flake of hay/alfalfa to check for foreign things in it and to help horses chew it better.
very wise and open young man! I hope he follows his dreams. :)
Beautiful.
Beautiful♡♡
Genuine leadership is always honorable, and that creates trust. Trust is earned. If " leadership" is not honorable, if it's shovey or lording, then it's abuse of power, and that person isn't trusted. ~ I understand that breaking up the alfalfa/hay flake helps to prevent Colic, preventing too much from being swallowed in one mouthful by a hungry horse, the feed compacting internally. It seems they wouldn't have that problem free-feeding, foraging in the wild, bit by bit.
Hay doesn't need to be broken up - the horses do that quite efficiently themselves. We break it up into multiple smaller piles so that they can eat more peacefully, without competing for food or feeling stressed while they eat. The balance Duncan was talking about is that they like to eat fairly close together, BUT they need to be far enough apart so they don't feel stressed or "pushed on" by another. They also need a few more piles than horses, because they will always switch piles and then the horse that has been moved off a pile needs to have a free/open pile to go to nearby - this greatly reduces the stress of feeding a limited resource. In an ideal world, I would have these horses on enough land so they could meet their protein requirements through grazing and foraging. Until then, I feed low sugar, high protein alfalfa and flax seed to provide the spectrum of protein needed (combined with their regular mixed hay which they have access to 24/7).
@@nightbird8348 I fed 4 horses , 1 was a draft horse, 4 bales of Standly alfalfa all at once every morning. Didn't break it up, I just threw all 4 bales over the fence and cut the strings. They didn't get get sick because they weren't starving at feeding time, they nibbled at it all day and all night and the next morning they got 4 more bales. When horses get good nutrition they don't get pushey and bitey and they never coliced it or foundered or anything. They were the most content bunch of horses I've ever seen.
Knowing. 😊
Great short video but you can write of it in a 300 page book! Great and thank you.
Funny you should say that... working on a book now!
Do you offer volunteering opportunities, classes or apprenticeships? I looked on your website and I did not see any classes or programs available... I love that you give away so much information for free, but classes or retreats would be absolutely amazing!
Where do you live Lauren and perhaps there is somewhere like-minded in your area that I can refer you to? We are in Langley, BC, Canada
Northern California, more specifically the bay area (-: thank you!
Flag Ranch Sanctuary may be a good place for you to go. They have various options, including just hanging out with the horses in their fields. Say HI from me if you go! FlagRanch.org
Lauren Mackenna hi Lauren. I live a little north of San Francisco. For about 20 years my goal has been to help people learn to give horses a better deal. I very much like what I see and hear in this video. If you’re still looking to learn some gentle horsemanship,respond here. I do this very small scale and do not advertise. Tonee
Question > Domestic free-range cattle have now been introduced to the immediate area of the Salt River Mustangs ( of Arizona). You can see the Salt River Wild Horse Management Group's (SRWHMG) latest video posted here on YT, that shows the horses moving away from the approaching cattle and the feeding station. There was no description, so I don't know who the feeding station was for, the horses or the cattle, though I suspect it was for the horses. This mustang herd is fed/supplemented (especially in times of drought, when there's less to forage) by the SRWHMG. Saguaro Lake and the Salt River (the lake is on the river) are an important water source for them, and maybe for the cattle now too. What is going to happen to the horses, now with the cattle putting pressure on the horses? I'm not on Facebook (to learn from the SRWHMG, Salt River Wild Horse Management Group Facebook page), so I can't find anything out. I would think the cattle will be eating from the natural forage that has been the food of the horses and deer, and that the cattle will make a harmful impact on the Salt River Mustang herd. I asked SRWHMG in the video comments, but they don't monitor their channel, and I've found they don't tend to answer emails. They rely on Facebook heavily. So I'm surmising that the cattle now introduced to the Salt River area, are going to be very harmful to the mustangs, along with tearing up the beautiful terrain and causing erosion. What do you think will happen or what would you expect to happen from this new development? Cattle haven't been in that area until very recently. It "seems" like the cattle industry, through their monied lobbyists and their desire to lease ever-expanding grazing rights, now runs the wild places. In spite of the Wild Horse and Burro Act of 1971, which, in essence, says they are not to be taken captive or in any way harassed, they are now rounded up and stolen from their freedom and family herds, and sold, either into captivity or to slaughter. The only reason Arizona still has feral horses is because caring citizenry has stood up to say 'No' to that removal agenda. Now, with this new introduction of cattle to the same immediate area, it doesn't look good. Please share your opinion of this now-changed dynamic. Thanks.
I have no informed opinion (only hearsay and snatches of info) on this topic. However, I am reading a fantastic book by Isabella Tree called WILDING which shows that a healthy ecosystem depends on a variety of browsers/grazers being present. So they use a mix of highland cattle, Exmoor ponies, deer, and pigs in a self-sustaining, regenerative ecosystem. However, the right ratio of animals to land is also key - and that ratio is going to differ depending on terrain. In the UK, 8 acres can support 1 pony. In the mountains of Spain (more similar to AZ), it takes 100 acres to support 1 horse (without human intervention). Also remember, you can use a pseudonym and get a free gmail email address to use to set up a Facebook account though - then you could get lots more info from SRWHMG.
I have watched videos that show the behaviors of cattle, that unlike horses they DON'T migrate, they don't move from place to place on their own to forage, that they "camp out" at their water source, eating down to the ground, pulling the remainder of the plants out by the roots, deadening the land in that spot, creating a barren mud-trample zone, where erosion is the condition. It's not the words that are stuck in my memory, but the real-life scenes of the land. This is why cattlemen have to move their herds from pasture to pasture ( to allow the pasture to grow back after only the tips are eaten), so the cattle don't destroy it, because it is not in the cattle to move themselves, as it is the Horse. The nature of the 2 don't compare, especially as to how they treat the terrain. Horses are very light on the landscape, moving from spot to spot, browsing and foraging lightly from this plant to the next, nourishing the land with their widely distributed processed seed and nutrients, and not trashing the land. While Horses behave as seed and nutrient distributors, as keystone species, they leave the land in good condition, as do deer and other native species. It's clear to me that : 1. Considering the Salt River Mustangs need supplemental feed, that there's not enough to add cattle to the equation, not enough forage to feed both. 2. That the cattle will eat whatever SRWHMG volunteers put out for the horses, and that the horses will suffer. 3. Whoever dreamed it up to put or allow cattle on that land, wasn't thinking logically about any of the issues or problems. 4. That the cattle will tear up the land in that strikingly beautiful place, and will leave it trampled and denuded. What someone was thinking by adding a far heavier burden to the same land, is beyond me. Saguaro Lake is a recreational site for boaters and picnickers, where they can enjoy the privilege of respectfully seeing the Mustangs. To add cattle to this, is unimaginable. Because of the pressures that Man is putting on Horses in the wild, Mustangs are having a hard enough time as it is, though still prospering and foaling. But to add cattle that will put a big demand on the forage and denude the land, is going to be unreasonable hardship on the horses. ~ A large argument that is used in the removal of Mustangs, is that " they're a non-native species". AND YET, somehow (Ka-ching, ka-ching $$$$), the BLM magically justifies putting non-native cattle on land that by Law has been reserved for historically resident Mustangs, and removing Mustangs to do it. Can anyone say Contradictive? If preservation of the land is what they're going for, Mustangs will do that, but cattle will not, unless cowboys are constantly moving them. Free-range cattle are not attended, but are free to do as they will. I've seen free-range cattle in real-life, and they do exactly as shown in the videos. This whole subject is highly grieving, so I rarely speak of it. Because they reject the Law, and by the contradictions they impose, it's clear that the Horse is not welcomed or valued because the Horse doesn't have a herd of attorneys and monied lobbyists to safeguard him. They see all these animals as Commodities by which to make money, instead of acknowledging them as the precious creations of Life and spirit that they are. The Horse brings much to Man, teaching, understanding, relationship. Yet the unwise of men devalue what matters, to exalt their bankbooks, Nature, ethics, and truth cast aside.
Ah I hear what you're saying and the whole scheme sounds like a disaster for sure. The other important distinction is between 'wilder' or heritage breeds of cattle and domestic meat cattle. In areas of re-wilding, the point is to introduce the species that would have been there before humans took over and interfered so grievously. And these original breeds have a much more 'natural' genetic memory than food cattle - who've had a lot of that wisdom, it's been bred out of them, so they behave very differently. The other point is that, compared to meat cattle, horses may be 'very light on the landscape' and IF they have enough land that may also be true. But domestic horses are pretty hard on their terrain - hence cross-fencing and pasture rotation becomes necessary. Whereas if the horses have enough land (that ratio is working well) then, like deer, wild boar, bison, etc they all work together to produce a dynamic and beneficial ecosystem for literally thousands of species of creatures. Conservation goes horribly wrong when it focuses on just one or two species and forgets about the rest. Because the strength of an ecosystem lies in its diversity - including fungi and soil organisms. When you put domestic animals - who are given drugs to kill worms and bacteria etc into a nature reserve - their feces also kill the beneficial bugs needed to maintain and support the soil, the water, etc. The BLM mustangs have become SUCH a hotbed of conflicting interests and corruption that they really should consider bringing in an outside set of fresh eyes to come up with a plan - someone with extensive experience in the kind of non-interference needed to preserve wild, diverse, ecosystems.
Thanks for the rich reply. (Of course, I was referring to Mustangs with open range.) First, they'd have to be open and willing to bring in such a person. That person with " extensive experience . . " would likely butt heads (purposes, goals) with their quest for money, I suspect. Wisdom doesn't appear to be the principal value or the driving force. When it's not, that's how destruction is wrought. I hear you. (nodding.)
