- This is the story of the Welsh mountain ponies, told from the point of view of a local recluse, Paul, who is a leading ecologist and former ballet-dancer. Having hung-up his ballet-shoes, Paul now spends his time in the mountains riding mountain bikes which he says is "the best way to see the ponies". This creative documentary aims to explore the ancient bond between man and pony and acknowledge the special place the mountain pony has in the heritage and landscape of Wales.

the guy in the hat's my granddad so all haters please stop dissing. this film is pure ponage by the way thank you.
Still watching in 2021!
Beautiful ponies, hope they are doing well.
I too am a pony lover. They are talented and smart. I have 3 that my children learned to ride on, and and we also drive them.
I have always admired the welsh. Thank you for sharing this video, and making people more aware of the role these ponies play in their natural environment. It made me smile.
Thank you for this video. It takes me back many years to learning "Men of Harlech in the hollows, do ye hear the raging billows?" Henry Vlll must have made a pretty picture being hoisted onto his shire horse by a crane. Keep on protecting the ponies'
so lucky to own a Welsh Pony
horse lovers !!these are very special to Welsh people including me. cymraeg 💯💯💯
Henry Vlll wasn't the only Pony killer.. so were the coal mines... cruelty to say the least! I was just 16 in 1960,working with ponies down Choppington B Colliery, in roadways so low that the ponies used to be skinned to the flesh along their backs, and along both flanks on their hind legs, due to the use of tracing chains with no spacer bars. Inspectors turned a blind eye for obvious reasons....
Hurts to know they were treated so callously and inspectors didn't do their jobs. Poor, poor things. 😥
Beautiful! Thank You !
I just saved Lola from a kill pen 2 months ago. She was ready to be shipped to Mexico and my vet and I cannot understand why she was even there. She is just going on three and the vet says she is Welsh.
Good job! I hope she's doing well and still with you?
How can I report animal abuse on u you tube
Do you still have your welsh mare? I have a palomino welsh cob stallion down here in central Texas that I bought last year just to breed my older maiden mare quarter horse. He has only been used to pasture breed and to guard sheep. I'd love to exchange info with you, I'm trying to build my horse network, especially with people interested in welsh horses, Mustangs, and quarter horses.

Men of Harlech, played by my daughter on her keyboard
I still miss my pony he died in 1962 from eating acorns

how much would you sell your ponys?
He would be a bit more convincing if he rode one instead of a bike!!

What a shame they are so over bred and end up on the meat mans lorry, poor creatures.
