Rocky on the Move.

Four years ago he made his move to challenge the reigning high ranking stallion to win one of his mares....and to my surprise Rocky won that battle and a beautiful pinto mare.

The roan color of his coat shows many darker marks showing through to the lighter color. Every mark is from a hard bite wound that heals and shows through his hide. You can also see a scar on his right front knee from a very deep to-the-bone cut he suffered in the battle for his first mare.

This stallion is fearless, strong, and unflinching in the defense of his harem. And a strong favorite when I want to film the stallions fighting.

Betty, These are not the same herd. But I am following that story with interest. Thankfully, the herd that is the subject of my photos is very well managed by the BLM and I am not aware of any current issues between local ranchers and the BLM with my herd.

Are these the same horse in the dispute between the Utah ranchers and the BLM? The ones the ranchers are threatening to round up themselves?
