These horses have been on the Outer Banks for 500 years and they’re a hell of a lot smarter than humans so they’ll be fine.

Rounding up a few hundred and corralling them inland for a week would not have been overly burdensome.

If any wild horse replacements are needed we have an over abundance here in Nevada.

Marguerite Henry wrote a whole series of stories about these horses.

When I was a child, we had a book by (looked it up) Marguerite Henry entitled Misty of Chincoteaque. I don't remember the story, but I had just gotten a set of oil paints and a canvas, and I painted a picture of it. The painting is long gone and not that great but not that bad either. I used to win art competitions, just a few, and got a scholarship to attend the art gallery classes.

We also had the book by same author, Sea Star, Orphan of Chincoteague. There was a third, Stormy, Misty's Foal and one more, Misty's Twilight.

Maybe we should get the horses to teach the Puerto Ricans how to survive a hurricanes.

Since there are no wild horses in all of North America, I don't worry about them at all.

There do seem to be some feral horses, but they are not wild horses.

We saw the horses last year. My 9 year is praying for the people, the horses, and the turtles of OBX every night.

These horses would graze by the local restaurants in Corolla. Stupid tourists would try to put their children on them for pictures.

That’s funny to see this story...
Just evacuated from there. Vacation cut short. 8 miles driving on the beach. Horses didn’t seem to be worried much they’ve seen it before.

They don’t call it “Horse Sense” for nothing.
