Wild Horses
I watched this show about Sable Island (SE of Nova Scotia) last night and it just took my breath away. Am so unbelievably happy such place on Earth still exists. But will it last?
The future of these magnificent animals on Sable Island is in question, and the Government of Canada is considering various options - one of which is to close the Station, ending 200 years of full-time human presence and stewardship. This option would put not only the horses, but all the island's flora and fauna at serious risk.
If this really happens I will officially have had no more hope for the mankind!
Check out the site with more info.
Beautiful pics here.
