  • From the HorseTV Archives, a fascinating story from our friends down under. In Australia, a "Brumby" is a free-roaming feral horse. "Brumbies" have roamed the Tinderry Ranges in the New South Wales high country of Australia for 200 years. When Greg Powell saw that only one stallion and two mares remained, he decided to bring them in from the wild- not an easy task. Greg eventually gains the respect and trust of the horses. The story follows Greg as he locates the last wild horses of the Tinderry Ranges and brings them to safety, while realizing a lifelong dream of building partnerships with truly wild horses.

    As an prof. german horseman I rode (or drove) hundrets, perhaps thousands horses in my entire life. But all of them where tamed breeds of Europe, never a wild one. It's a complete other work and other basics. Hat off, my friend for your perfect skills and horsemanship too❤ Best regards from Germany

    The white mare runs so fully extended that her legs are almost completely horizontal to the ground. Wow. I'm grateful for you sharing on CZcams. My long-ish life around horses is something I miss in illness. Don't watch horse exploitation in shows or races. Rescues are safe best lives. Good camera work. From Texas. Been riding English, Western, bareback all over the Americas including South. I look forward to seeing more to hopefully support financially.

    My Dad was Greg's very close friend and the property that Snowy and the other wild horses roamed when they were wild is actually my parents property and while Snowy wouldn't let anyone near her the other horses were actually very friendly and would even let you pat them. Mum has a story about me when I was about 5, wandering off from everyone and when they noticed I was standing under the chest of one of the horses patting it. I also remember the day that they blew up the boulder. If you listen, when Owen is explaining what they're doing, there's kids playing in the background and I'm one of those kids. In case anyone was wondering, this was probably over 10 years ago now and they were indeed the last mob of wild horses in the area.

    What a lovely story! Those aussie saddles are amazing and I rode atop one for 10 plus years aboard a paso fino. My heart horse. I wish all wild horses were so lucky. Sadly in America it's one of the great down falls.

    I love to see the Arabian endurance horses there. I didn’t know if they were used much in Australia. Seems a perfect place for a horse that can really travel the ground. I have Arabs in western Colorado USA, so great for mountain riding!

    I was not aware there were horses in the Tinderrys, which run east side of Monaro Highway between Canberra and Cooma. I raised horses at Numeralla in the 80's. Beautiful film, great horsemanship, stunning mare, me favouring horses on the chunky side with lots of bone. Well done.
