The following images were taken at the end of September, 2008 just before the BLM gather at Sand Wash Basin, CO in October. Both the mare and the colt were brought in during the roundup. I’m not sure about the mare, but I was told the little stud colt was put up for adoption – taken from his mother and his short life of freedom on the range. My hope is that he found a caring, forever home. He was so uniquely marked – I was looking forward to documenting his life in the wild through the years. Along with this foal, over 200 horses were permanently removed.
