- Join us as we visit the Windcross Conservancy in South Dakota, where their goal is to preserve the rare lines of the original Spanish Mustang, brought to North America centuries ago by the Spanish Conquistadores.
In Spain we have different breed of horses, the Andalusian horses are de most beautiful of all, even in the mountains of northern Spain there is a very old unique breed called asturcon... In Galicia they live in the wild, in Vienna, Austria they are the oldest Spanish riding school in Europe and all the horses are Spanish
Greetings from Spain....
Estos fueron los caballos mas resistentes que cruzaron el atlantico, aca en las Americas se les llamo criollos, corrientes o mustag, lejos de la raza andaluz, son rusticos, mas parecidos a los de galicia, pequeños de cascos duros, exelentes bestias.
Bernal Diaz rode with Cortez and remarked that Spain was depleted of all of her fine war horses. People tried to export horses back to Spain from the Americas, but that was enormously unsuccessful. Bernal remarked that this resulted in the government banning the exportation of horses and establishing royal studs. Charles V began to import horses from the Low Countries according to Dr Bennett and the foundation Spanish warmblood cross that would become the Pura Raza Español was born. The Spanish conquest horse is not the same as the modern Andalusian or Lusitano.
Wonderful, this breed must be preserved. Am very touched by this video. Hi from Germany.
Wie gehts Kati!
This is my dream horse I didn’t know they were going down in numbers… I’d prefer this over any horse in the world 🌎 they re part of my history
I've got 1! His name is Colorado, said to be from the Utah/Nevada line. I traded 8 sheep and a donkey for him back in 2003. Someone had traded him to a dude outfit, said he'd make a good trail horse. The wranglers couldn't catch him so they traded him to my bullriding buddie's grandpa. He has big hooves, must be some draft in his lineage. His head appears to be that of a thoroughbred. Old timers were said to often shoot the wild studs, then turn other breed stallions out, to get the bone up in the offspring. We love old "Colorado". He's as good in the mountains as they come. He's a good cow pony, too. Even roped off him a bit.
One day years ago while working on the Lechlieter ranch, Luis (the top hand) asked me, "Why that sob so spooky?" I told him, " You'd be spooky, too, if you grew up dodging mountain lions."
Great! Beautifull! 💕👏👍
Well done video! Of all the videos out there about these horses, this one is kinda the best for several reasons. 👌
Thank you for your kind comment, we sincerely enjoy producing this episode and enjoyed the people working hard to preserve these treasures.
This was absolutely wonderful. Would like to know more about possibility of acquiring one.
Contact the Windcross Conservancy (contact information at the end of the episode), they can loop you into the Spanish Mustang community to begin your journey and discover which owners and breeders may have stock available. Thank you for your inquiry.
These amazing equine, like all other equine will, given a little extra time ride perfectly fine without pain devices like bits and spurs. Respect is NO pain devices.
What she explained....you can attached those attributes to all horse 🐎
So, so true. And the sweeping statements of those people who have worked with ALL horses, really?
sounds exactly like my Arabian stallion.
This is for the ignorant, those that haven't studied the horse.
I love mustangs.. But this is sad.
These guys a rough and tough horses. You could toss on over a mountain and I swear they will think nothing of it.
I have a lion trying my herd, one mare came in that she clearly attacked the lion because of the frontal scratches....haven't seen sign of that cat since it happened.
Iam so proud to own a Mustang! Sweden.
How did it come to Sweden? @Jan Hermfelt
How did you get a mustang in Sweden?when a mustang is relatively very cheap and send him over the plan is over 5-7.000$….basically a no brainer
I have been following the breed for a while. Would love to have one!
Wow!
Do you think the bureau of land management has round them up?
Wild horses from the Spanish still roam the west (e.g.Utah,Nevada) and are often auctioned off.
Not for a long time. Almost every single horse, feral or domestic, has a touch of Spanish in them.
@@PahaPoniesSpanishMustangs Not what for a long tong time? So, what does that prove? These wild horses do have their own herds that have survived through many decades. I have seen them and encountered them working for the government (BLM).
Ian Tyson's La Primera tells their story
Bossyladyone2, were you referring to a song by the Canadian folk-singer, Ian Tyson?
@@aileen694 Yes, I was referring to that song by that artist. That song goes hand in hand
with this video. The preservation of these wonderful horses by all involved is putting a smile in the Heart of Jesus. He is coming to Earth again riding on the back of a white horse!!! I pray that he makes a place in Heaven for all of these *non-feral drinkers of the wind***
Very interesting. But the Spanisch horse is not the only ancesteror of mustangs. Look at the "Nokota horse", the progeny horses of Sittimg Bull's tribe rode. Their DNA is reaching back to Nordic wiking horses. Nobody knows aubout them untill the Theodore Roosevelt NP was build up in 1978. They are mostly Blue or Red Roans, Grey, Chestnut or Black, NOT Painted, and someones doing the "Indian shuffle".
I'm personally very excited of them.
Best regards from Germany
That bloodline was documented a gift from BB Cody.
¿ Los vikingos se contactaron con los nativos americanos ? ¡ Deja ya de beber !
Very similar to our Morgan breed in New England. That is, the original Morgan, not the show jazzed up version.
Agree- there is a significant difference in conformation, temperament and personality of the original Morgan bloodlines when compared to the "contemporary" Morgan. You might enjoy our TV Episode on the Lippitt Morgan and see several of our own horses, found at this link: czcams.com/video/2FpuGUVW9XU/video.html
🥰🐴❤️🙏
I am so glad owned, trained, showed and bred American Quarter & Paint Horses ....in Austria / Europe...they did win National & International open & Aqha , Apha Championships....Futurity , Europe Champs Master klasses ....wherever...
Did you do it without pain devices? Horses so not care about ribbon winning.
@@honesttruth8064 don't you worry we are in Europe and we are a stable where Horses getting handled very human....and handled with care.. ....We know exactly whats going on in the US by mostley of the Pros which train Top horses !
Global issue. You know it. Thank you for answering the question. You can NOT ride your horses without pain devices. UK or elsewhere. Note how many of your Roy parade horses get pulled over backwards.... rich to think UK is any better than...... everyone? Lol.
@@brigittefarmer4400 a stable with humans handling horses.....
@@honesttruth8064 😂😂😂
Rosina the Spanish Mustang Horse.
💃🏻🐴🇺🇦🇺🇸🌼🥛💙🎶🛻
Is that the one being ridden with the pole?
@@PahaPoniesSpanishMustangs no.
Indains didn't really ride horses like people think they did, horses were used as pack animals
You are highly mistaken friend. Someone told you that and you believed it.
U need learn about the Comanches.
They used dogs for that. Horses to haunt bisons and war
The Mustangs were first tamed by the Comanche tribe which gave them an advantage over the Mexicans trying to invade the north on foot. Only later were the used by Americans
I´d say african more than iberian. Most horses that came to the Americas were gathered by the Spanish in the Canary Islands and then shipped to Cuba, from were they were distributed to the colonies, in general. More than any iberian breed, it was the north-african barb horse the most influential in the creole breeds which developed in the Americas.
Ignoramus.....The Spanish (Musteno/Mustang)horse by that time had roamed throughout Europe an north Afrika....ridden by soldiers....
You kinda have to look at that regions history at that time. Moors etc.
sorry the mustangs are criollo horses,
