13th Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Natural World
Lead Mare
The wild horse bands that do best have at least one older mare to guide the other horses. In this case, Seneca and another mare lead the band across a creek, but the younger mares were unable to figure out how to cross. So the mares could be together, Seneca crossed the creek again and stood with Nova and Kitalpha.
