Joe2021-08-27 12:25:522022-07-05 18:53:33The Secret of Corolla – DownloadThe Secret of Corolla is the story about the Wild Colonial Spanish Horses found on the Outer Banks of North Carolina, and how they have made those islands their home.
It’s a story of perseverance. Not just by the horses, but also by the people who call this very special place their home.
Through devastating hurricanes, swarms of biting flies and mosquitos, and the constant pressure from developing the islands into prime beach vacation property, these horses, and the people they share the islands with have found a way to live together in a most uncommon accord. They have created an incredibly remarkable and uniquely wondrous place.
We are very lucky to have been given a wonderful song. Castaño is a song that captures the spirit and the significance of the Corolla wild horses. We feel this song will give hope and continues to help us meet our goals.
The song, video and lyrics are available as a download for $5. Supporters will be given an opportunity to donate more. Your donation will help us continue our crucial work. Thank you for your support!

Tomorrow is going to be hot, with a heat index of 100+ degrees, and there’s a chance of severe storms in the afternoon. If you’re planning on coming to the farm open house, please try to be here early! Gates open at 10am, and the address is 102 Young Rider Lane, Grandy. If it starts lightning we will have to shut the event down early.
Riptide would like to remind everyone to stay hydrated, and remember to give his wild friends plenty of space on the beach! They are trying to stay cool just like the rest of us. 🏖
Awww......Thank you for the reminder Riptide!!! He is such a handsome boy!!!!
yep, over here in Kentucky we are at 108° heat index right now, so it'll be there tomorrow! Thank you for the reminder Riptide; I don't even go to the backyard without a water bottle. I hope the residents at the farm were not overwhelmed by the fireworks❗️ Stay safe everyone💦☀️⛱❣️
He's a handsome horse. I'm sure he's enjoying staying cool. Fantastic picture.
I can’t wait. I’m finally here during the week where hopefully the meet and greet won’t be cancelled.
I have a question. Do you ever have a horse come to you all when they’re in need of medical attention? Like one day they’re just waiting at the door to be seen.
Reminds me of our dog playing with the hose! Stay cool Riptide❤️😍❤️
Just like any kid with a hose lol love it
Amazing stay safe
That is a great video
He is loving it!
I think Riptide wants a swimming pool!
Riptide has personality!
Horses are so amazing
Aww think he is enjoying staying cool
He looks like he could drink forever!
Where do they get fresh water supply from? Have always wondered?
He's amazing
that's adorable!
Rochelle Gallaher Widdowfield we should go to the farm next year!!!

Important reminders from our friends at Carova Beach Volunteer Fire & Rescue. Everyone have a fun but SAFE holiday! 🚫🎆🚫We volunteer to keep our community safe. Help us this holiday weekend by following these safety tips:
(1) No fireworks on the beach.
(2) Be careful when grilling. Keep grills off decks and away from the house.
(3) Air down your tires when driving on the sand. Hard tires put stress on the engine and transmission and can lead to a car fire.
(4) Keep hydrated. Know the signs of heat exhaustion and heat stroke and take action if you get overheated.
And most of all - have a happy holiday!
I remember when hardly anyone went over there. It seemed like we were on a secluded island as a kid in the 70's
Dont go near the horses or feed them. And its sad to have to say this but dont drive your CAR on the beach people 🤣
You guys are great. Thank you for reminding us to be smart. Thank you for your service. 💕
Please don’t dig giant holes and leave them. Be kind and fill back in!
And leave the horses alone. Just watch, don't touch.
How about “No fireworks anywhere” as fireworks are illegal in Currituck County. This area hasn’t seen appreciable rain in ages and things are as dry as a bone. Not to mention the fact of firework noise and flash frightening and disorienting the existing wildlife.
Nothing like a surprise tropical storm to get you up and moving on a Saturday morning! Doesn’t seem like it’s going to be bad at all (we need the rain 🤞🏻) but nevertheless there are protocols to follow at the farm any time we are under the threat of tropical weather. Everything has to be tied down and secured, water troughs filled to the top, hay moved inside if possible, and all gates and fences double checked - just to name a few things!
The wild horses are just fine taking care of themselves in bad weather. There are plenty of high and dry places across their 7600 acres of habitat for them the hunker down in, and they have the freedom to go where they feel the safest. The breeze and the cool rain is a welcome relief in the middle of the summer.
But of course at the farm, the horses are pastured and can’t necessarily do what their instincts tell them to do, so we have to make sure they are as safe and as comfortable as we can possibly make them. It’s a 24/7, 365 days a year job - doesn’t matter if there’s a hurricane or a blizzard, if it’s Christmas, if we’re tired or under the weather - the horses come first!
You can help us continue this important work of providing long-term sanctuary for horses removed from the wild by sponsoring one of them, giving to Hay for Day, becoming a member, or making a one-time donation. Here’s how: www.corollawildhorses.com/support-corolla-wild-horse-fund/
If you are leaving from or arriving to the Outer Banks today or tomorrow, please be safe!
Appreciate your total devotion and dedication to these extraordinary horses!! Everyone please stay safe. ❤️
We appreciate all that you do tirelessly to manage and preserve these beautiful horses and Raymond as well. 🙏🐴🐎
Praying for all to stay safe.
Love seeing those sweet babies!! Thank you for all you do to keep them safe, healthy and happy💕
I love these updates. Do the wild horses you care for become accustomed to being inside or are they easily spooked indoors?
Stay safe! Hope it’s just a bit of rain
Just sponsored Junior, I have always “wanted” a horse. Glad to be able to help this guy and the Rescue out. Can’t wait to visit the farm next time we are there and visit! Stay safe!
I love the way you love and care for these animals.
Thank you for all that you do for these horses- wild ones & on the farm! Stay safe! Hope you just get rain!
Beautiful sweet babies! Hope you’re having a good night tonight. We received our tickets… but not sure if we’re going to keep patterns. LOL 😂
Glad they have you all to take care of them. Everyone be safe.
Thank you for all you do! We so appreciate you!
We loved our visit to the farm and supporting all you do to take care of all the horses! 💙
Thank you for all you do! Love those beautiful horses & Raymond. Hopefully it’s just rain! ❤️🙏🏼🌻
Stay safe. Love the updated pictures. Brio is getting big and Raymond is handsome as always. Love them all! 💕💕💕💕
Wishing you all a wonderful and safe weekend!!!
I hope you and the horses stay stay.
Saw the weather warning and thought of you all. Prayers for safety.
sending prayers 🛐
Thank you for all your hard and never-ending work! ❤️
So much work but they are so worth it.
Stay safe.
So glad Raymond was rescued.
How is Alma doing? Do you have updates on her?
God bless all of you for your tireless devotion. I wish I lived near there. I'd gladly help out. Prayers and hugs!!! You're amazing.
Excited to finally share a photo of the one remaining unannounced foal - meet Crow! This colt was born in early spring but his parents very rarely come out of the marsh. They were on the beach today because the biting flies have been really bad. It was a pleasant surprise to see them out there and get some good pictures. We’ve been keeping track of him through supportive property owners who send photos and updates as they see him.
So far in 2022 we’ve had six foals born, with five surviving - Charlie (died from bacterial septicemia in April 💔), Cádiz, Cedar, Crow, Cyclone, and Cricket. We name the foals alphabetically by year so it’s easier to remember how old they are once they’re grown up. Hard to say if we’ll have more born this year, but fingers crossed! The current herd size is 106, and our population agreement, which is signed by CWHF, Currituck County, the state of NC, and US Fish and Wildlife, is no less than 110 and no more than 130, so we have room to grow.
Don’t forget to always give foals plenty of space (50ft at minimum) and remember they can be very unpredictable. At this age they are curious and becoming independent, but they still don’t have the maturity or experience to really take care of themselves or make great decisions. Kids, right? 😉 Watch from a distance so these special foals can grow up safe, and stay wild and free forever!
Adorable!!!! How is alma doing??
What does the no less than population agreement mean? Obviously you're hoping for at least four more foals, but what does it ultimately mean if there aren't the 110 horses for the "no less than" population agreement?
Corolla Wild Horse Fund Crow is gorgeous! I'm glad to hear that Alma is doing well and praying that she finds her own heard soon. My favorite thing about visiting there is seeing the beautiful wild horses. You all do a wonderful job caring for the wild horses! Thank you all for everything that you all do! God Bless you all
Welcome baby Crow! Fingers crossed for a surprise foal or two ☺️ late in the season like last year!
I haven't had time to do my pictures from vacation but I have Cedar sleeping on the beach.
Thank you for work and devotion to the horses.
Thanks for this adorable picture of baby Crow and mom. Also thanks for the update on Alma. Glad her face is healing well. Hoping she finds a new group.
So adorable! Looks spunky, happy, and healthy. Thank you for all you do.
He’s a beauty and looks as if he may be a dominant stallion when he’s grown! He’s just got that cocky look about him (no pun intended!🤭)
BEAUTIFUL!!! Love the name "Crow"! Can't wait to see the little one when we come down in September!!! ❤ Oh, who are his parents?
He is fabulous. Look at the confident stance!
Sweet photo of both. Love ❤️ the work you’re doing with these amazing animals. Great job! Thank you 🙏
What is Gus’ status—has he gotten a few mares together—any foals from him?? Any efforts to bring over some Shackelford mares??
He beautiful! May he grow up to sire many foal and help continue this cherished breed of horses.🐴❤️
So glad to see them on the beach. Absolutely beautiful! ❤️🐴❤️🐴
He's so stinking adorable 😍 he was posing for his debut
Crow is beautiful!!!! And remember: do NOT feed!!!
He is beautiful! So happy they are out and about!
Got to see both Crow and Cedar today! They looked great!
What a great photo! Thank you for sharing with us.
I love the names you guys come up with! Thank you for all you do!
Beautiful..as they all are..…
I guess I missed the post about baby Charlie. It makes me so sad. Poor little guy.
Just Precious! And thank you for your layman explanation of "rules", not condescending at all, appreciate that!
He is adorable! So healthy looking too! ♥️
Come see us at the farm open house tomorrow! Learn the how’s and why’s behind herd management, talk to the staff and volunteers who take care of the wild horses and the horses on the rescue farm, and grab a CWHF hat, tshirt, horse painting, and other gifts from the on-site shop.
More info: fb.me/e/2E5npG3Ya
Event is from 10am - 2pm. Address is 102 Young Rider Land, Grandy (about 15 minutes across the bridge).
Enjoy my time visiting a couple of weeks ago. So worth seeing Raymond, Brio, Squirt and the others. Meg and your staff are great.
Wish I could come. Sounds like so much fun!
Are you able to breed the mares and the stallions at the farm to continue the blood line? Just curious! And not to put them in the wild. More about continuing the line.
Im curious- how are their hooves managed? Domesticated horses are usually seen by a farrier for shoeing and trimming. How do they avoid overgrown hooves?
Nothing ever said anymore about my guy Raymond
How do you decide which horses are brought to this farm and which are left to take care of themselves in the wild?
I wish I could be with you!❤️❤️❤️
So worth it!
Wish I was close enough to be there
Do you ever do homeschool days? We’d love a field trip.
Are there any events or farm visits in late July?
How often do you have an open house?
Is that Raymond? I have photos of him and a friend.
Danielle Vice… this is something the girls might like to do while you are down there.
Are you open for browsing on Sunday, July 2?
Kasey Brown let's take the boys
Brenda Loudin, let’s do this.
Wish we could come down. How long will you be open on Wednesdays?
Are you open in sept at all

Hi Raymond!!
We’ve been getting a ton of calls about two year old mare Alma - hopefully this post will help answer some questions and spread the word about what everyone can do to help us ensure she stays safe, healthy, and wild.
Of particular note, as you can see from the photo Alma has wounds on both sides of her face, probably from being bit. Our vet has been consulted and has advised that they are clean and healing well, and not anything to be too worried about. We will continue to remain in close contact with our vet but there is no reason at this point to be concerned for Alma’s physical well-being.
Earlier this spring, Alma was pushed out of the harem she born into. The stallion (who is most likely her father, but DNA will confirm) became aggressive towards her and would not let her get close to the rest of the mares. Alma is often alone on the beach and to human observers seems lost, which is understandably concerning. It may be difficult to see, but we have to remember that these are wild horses behaving naturally. It’s what eventually happens to each and every young horse, though Alma’s situation is a little unique.
Alma’s family lives in an area with a low population of horses - it’s just them for over a mile. Normally, a mare that’s pushed out of her harem would quickly be scooped up by another stallion but there just aren’t any other harems close by for Alma to assimilate into. The good news is she finally seems to be migrating north, towards more densely populated areas. We are keeping our fingers crossed that she comes across a welcoming group soon.
What we are most concerned about is the fact that Alma seems to be getting increasingly habituated. She’s been approaching and following people, and is getting very close to vehicles. We are asking that all visitors please do everything possible to discourage this behavior if you happen to encounter Alma. Get into your vehicle, wave your arms around to scare her away from you, and definitely do not pet her or give her any positive attention at all. We want Alma to be completely disinterested in humans - afraid of them, even. She is in a very vulnerable position right now, where she is young, impressionable, and unfortunately alone. We want her to be seeking out the company of other horses, not people.
As we head into another busy turnover weekend, please do us a favor if you are coming to the 4x4 and help us keep Alma wild. Her genes are invaluable to the herd and her removal due to habituation would be a devastating blow. We can’t afford to lose another young horse from the wild. Alma is healthy and in excellent physical shape, she just needs some time to mature and figure out how to be a grownup horse. If we’re going to share space with these horses and expect them to remain wild, we all have to be active participants in their management. Please give her plenty of space and help us ensure she stays wild and free for the rest of her life.
The author of this page deserves a lot of credit for their way with words and how easily they explain these creatures needs to the rest of us. Best of luck to Alma!
Is there any way to "herd her" toward the are faster? I'm sure once she finds a new family she'll be good
I really love the way you present the information.
Thank you for your faithful care of these national treasures.
Thank you for this update. I saw her last Saturday while on the Hummer Adventure Tour with this wound, standing alone on the beach. I’m glad to know the wound is healing but it’s so sad to know she is alone. Praying she finds a new harem that accepts her.
Prayers for her that she heals nicely and finds a family to welcome her. I hope everyone takes your advice, leaves her alone, and lets her just be wild and free! 🙏
Is there any way you could get this information to the renters? Maybe some kind of partnership with the realtors in the area, so they could pass along updates and info on the wild horses.
Poor little girl; hope she finds a new family soon. ❤️
At some point in our lives, we’ve all been an Alma 🥰 Stay strong Alma. You’re not alone 💜
At this point the responsible and humane thing is either relocate her to that area where other horses are that she can be confirmed accepted or adopt her into a Wildhorse sanctuary . This is not good. People out there driving are probably not on facebook. It just takes one careless driver. A wound is still a wound and antibiotics are needed . You can’t be so detached about what you observe and record and call it management. 🤔😞🙏
Thank you for all you do and for this valuable information. I've been fortunate to watch Alma grow up in the wild. I have photos of her nursing. I will be sharing your post.
Why can't horses in special cases such as this go ahead and be adopted by a family, or a wild horse sanctuary? She's intelligent and needs companionship, even human if necessary. I'm so sad for her.🤎
as always, thank you Corolla Wild Horse Fund for sharing your deep wealth of knowledge and love of these amazing animals ❤️ 🐴 good luck alma!
Thanks for the information this story does tug at your heart and your information does help comprehend the seriousness of allowing her to be wild and find her way. Prayers she finds a new family soon.
Ugh this breaks my heart. But sharing in hopes of spreading awareness. I hope Alma can get with another harem! 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
How old is Alma? I hope all the reality companies are giving out information about the horses. If not they need to. Just to protect them from humans.
I pray that people listen better there than they do near the Smoky Mountains. Countless black bears have been lost over the last two weeks because people simply won’t leave the bears alone and follow a few basic concepts to ensure they don’t become unafraid of people. Alma is stunning and I hope she finds a new family soon ♥️♥️♥️ Thank you for all you do for these beautiful horses.
These posts are always so informative. I feel confident Alma will soon find her place among a new family. <3
I wish newcomers to the area would inform themselves before interacting. Their behaviors have a significant impact on these animals! My niece is bringing her family here from Phoenix in a couple of weeks. Her 6 year old wants to bring grass to feed the horses. While that is a considerate thought, she is learning the value of leaving them (and other wild animals, like bears) alone.
My humble opinion is that while u protect their wildness, watching this animal suffer rather than “herd her” as suggested is unnecessarily cruel since the situation is not truely wild to begin with. U do a Great job and hope u don’t feel guilty if u humanely assist with her becoming integrated into another group. God bless u and the work you do. 🙏🏻☮️
Do you know of any other time this has happened? I believe you when you say she's vulnerable. . .she's a herd animal and needs a herd. It must have been a major blow to her to be kicked out of her family. . .Prayers for her to find an accepting family that will love her. . .❤❤❤
This is so sad. I’m not an expert and I am positive you know more than me about wild horses. My family and I have owned horses most of our lives and hate the thought of any horse being alone. They are herd animals. It’s not natural for them to be alone and must be stressful to her (which stress causes ulcers but that’s a whole other topic). I hope if she doesn’t find a herd soon you guys can somehow direct her to the other herds.
This is so heartbreaking. It’s a monumental task for us humans not to “fix” it, because she is all alone and that is so sad. This is when we have to think with our brain and not our heart and boy, is that hard to do! Alma, you ARE so loved - whether you know it or not. ❤️
bless her heart...she's craving contact. I pray she finds it with her kind.
She has been grazing on the dunes in front of our rental all week and we were concerned about her wounds and that she was alone. It is nice to know that her wounds are being monitored and are healing. She did come up to my niece and tried to smell her. My niece just moved away from her, she moved on then. She is a beautiful horse and hope she gets to stay on the island and finds another harem soon .
Did you know that you can sponsor one of the horses at our rescue farm? And we have a new option that includes a limited-edition print of a painting done by your chosen horse! You'll also get an 8x10 photograph as well as a certificate. These make great gifts!

I wish we lived out there. It would be so fun to volunteer to help
We went last week! Thank you for all you do for these beautiful animals!

Do you have a list of open house dates throughout this summer? Thx!
Hope to get down there in off season before you close. Love the farm.
Do you ever have these on weekends?

We have an urgent request for support this evening. Sea King, a formerly wild Corolla stallion, was involved in a devastating accident a couple days ago. He needs to have an eye removed, and will then need reconstructive surgery. His owner Tommi could use help covering his vet bills. Here is the GoFundMe page: gofund.me/f6e0231e
King and Tommi have competed in shows, games, trails, and endurance, winning multiple awards but perhaps even more importantly, showcasing what Banker horses are capable of achieving in a domestic setting. He is an important ambassador for his breed, and also invaluable from a genetic standpoint. And, perhaps most importantly of all, he is dearly loved.
We'd like to thank former CWHF director Karen McCalpin for alerting us to King's accident, and asking us to put out a call for support.
Let's try to get King's $2000+ vet bill covered tonight so at least that burden is off Tommi's shoulders and she can focus on getting King through his surgery and on the road to recovery. 🙏
Update: Goal met! 🥳 Wow, you guys. Feeling the love tonight. Thank you, thank you, thank you! If you’re able to donate, please still consider doing so. King has a long road ahead of him and it’s likely the cost of his care and recovery will go up.
Turning comments off now. Thank you all so much for your kind words and support. 💜
Goal met in 20 min
Donated. Unfortunately, unexpected, large vet bills are a part of responsible horse ownership.
So awful that the person who hit him never even stopped. 😭
Good news is the amount has been met and exceeded!
Prayers uplifted for King and Tommi. Oh gracious Heavenly Father, hear our prayers and wrap your loving arms around Tommi and King. We know you are the great Healer. Please place your healing hands on this majestic horse and heal him. Wrap your arms around Tommie and help to have the peace and understanding that only You can give. In Jesus name Amen
I can't believe they would just keep driving... This is heartbreaking 😰💔

Prayers. I hope he uses the extra funding to fix the faulty gate. Very sad.
This is just heartbreaking. How can you hit a pony/horse and just drive away. This poor animal left suffering. Looks like the funds are building and that’s awesome. Please keep us posted
I’m so sorry this is happening to you 💜. Thank you for making the surgery happen!!
Wonderful people donating to help with this situation.

Is this in Texas ? The organizer is

I hate this reckless drivers..ughhh
Uncle Squirt bringing Brio in for the night. 🥰
It’s hard to believe that this is the same scared, skinny, sick colt we rescued off the beach in March. He is doing remarkably well, physically and emotionally. Squirt provides safe one-on-one socialization for Brio during the day, and then he comes back to the barn for the night. Squirt lives with Riptide and Junior when he’s not busy being the best uncle ever. Brio isn’t done getting all of his vaccinations, so coming to the barn at night keeps him safe from critters and insects that could make him sick. He also needs way more food than Squirt does, so it gives him a chance to eat too. In the next couple months he will graduate to living with Squirt 24/7.
Your support is what allows us to provide permanent sanctuary for the horses that are removed from the wild. Without you, we wouldn’t be able to do this important work. Get involved today - you will help save lives!

So awesome. Thank you for all you do taking care of these beautiful creatures. ❤️
He looks amazing, they both do. Thank you for all that you do.
Thank you for the video. I'm so glad Brio is doing well. He has a wonderful Uncle. They both look great and beautiful! Thank you for all you do!
Brio looks amazing and Squirt has a special place in Doug’s heart!
I love Squirt fir taking Brio under his wing. Thank you CWHF. It is so wonderful to see Brio looking so good. He was always such a tiny stitch when he was on the beach.
He looks do much healthier! Thank you for everything y'all do for these wonderful horses.
Thank you so much for all you do to keep these beautiful horses safe , healthy and happy! ❤️🐴
We are so thankful for the hard work that CWHF puts in for these majestic creatures! Y’all are amazing.
He looks great, so good to see him healthy!❤️🥰
Awww he lost so much fuzz in one week. He's such a good baby. ❤️❤️❤️
This is huge progress even in the 3 weeks since we were there. Great work! 💕
Brio is beautiful. Thank you for taking care of these amazing creatures ❤️
So sweet! Thanks for taking care of these beautiful creatures!
I am loving this!! It was so awesome to meet Brio when we stopped by during vacation when the farm was open. It was so nice to meet staff and volunteers!!
Very good news. Brio looks great except it looks like he lost one white sock in the wash !! Just kidding of course.
Squirt does seem like a great Uncle❤️
Such a beautiful sight to see! Love them ❤️🐴❤️
Brio has grown so much! So happy to see both Brio and Squirt. THANK YOU! 💕💕💕💕
Little Brio! I am so glad he is doing so well!
Such a beautiful video. Brio is looking great.
Brio is looking SO much better than these few months later! Y'all are doing great work with him!
Bless them! Thanks for taking care of them!♥️
Gorgeous… so happy for Brio and Squirt. So appreciative of y’all for being so invested in protecting our state’s national treasure. Now, if the tourists will realize the rules and laws apply to them as well and that no matter what they paid for their rental, or whatever reason they’re Using to justify their poor behavior, they are not entitled to put the horses at risk for their own pleasure…
Uncle Squirt's the BEST! What is his back story?
He looks so good! He's tall!
Our website is going to be down for a couple hours today for maintenance. Sorry for any inconvenience - we’ll be back up and running ASAP!
Glad we heard it right from the horses mouth! 😂😂
I'm glad the horses get content approval 🤣🤣🤣
What a great photo!!!
Is the IT department working at a gallop?
I LOVE your posts, pictures and updates! Thank you all for everything you do!
Love your IT guy.
Better IT support than what I would be!
Quit horsing around! 😂

Nature: Horses on the Outer Banks
Shared this to my page. They are so beautiful.
Was thrilled to see this on their show this morning!! As a NC native, resident and horse lover, I can’t believe I haven’t yet visited the wild horses on our coast. It’s definitely on my bucket list though!!
Some of God's beautiful creatures. I'm so so glad Corolla has left them be to be free like they were meant to be
I have such mixed feelings about the piece on CBS Sunday Morning although it was beautiful. I hope the piece will bring more awareness and support for the horses and those who work so terribly hard to protect them. My fear is that it might also bring people who, even though perhaps unintentionally or inadvertently, will see the horses as simply another "attraction" when they are so much more. I wish there was more I could do to help protect them. For now, I hope that the small support I offer the fund makes some kind of difference.
Never gets old seeing these horses. Amazing.
So glad these horses are protected & remain wild & free! Please people please leave them alone, don’t feed them, keep your distance & enjoying watching the horses & ocean! Horses & ocean who could ask for more? Thank you Corolla Wild Horse Fund for all you do for these beautiful creatures!
I’ve had the privilege of seeing these beautiful horses in the wild. 💗🙏
My favorite place in the whole wide world.
They are a treasure
Absolutely wonderful! I wish Meg had been narrating it!!!
These magnificent beauties and the peace of the ocean waves… The best of both worlds😍 I will never ever forget seeing them 
Love traveling to Corolla to see these beautiful creatures! So peaceful to watch. ❤️🐴
Saw the short piece on CBS News Sunday Morning today. I wonder if that short clip will inspire more tourists to come to the OBX.🤔
So beautiful 🐎🐎🐎🐎
It hasn't even been a month since we left, it seems like forever. Counting the days until we return early Fall.
Saw this on the program - so awesome! 🥰
It never gets old❤️❤️
Love love love this!🐴🐎❤
I saw it this morning. Great national coverage.
Absolutely awesome
Thank you for sharing this!
Absolutely gorgeous!!! I wish I could see this for real...
Oh how I'd LOVE to see those beautiful animals running free❗💖💕💞
Absolutely amazing, love these ponies.
Love it there! A little bit of Heaven on earth. Can’t wait to get back in September.
Liberty turned 6 this year - he sure has grown up nicely! This spring he won his first mare so it’s possible by next season he will be a dad! 🤞🏻Colts usually leave their birth harem around the age of two, and will often join up with other bachelors for a few years. They learn how to live on their own and practice fighting, and then usually by the age of 6 or 7 are mature enough to steal and keep a mare or two of their own. Some stallions stay bachelors forever - all depends on how motivated, strong, and aggressive they are. Liberty spent a couple weeks fighting very hard for his mare!
Fantastic!!! Nature @ Her finest!!!❤ Just curious...how do the "fillies" assimilate into a "pack"?
He’s so shiny! I always thought horses got shiny from all the grooming we do. Apparently that’s not always the case!
You can still see the umbilical stump on his belly.
Love Liberty. So handsome. Glad he’s got a mare.
Corolla Wild Horse Fund can you recommend a book that educated an adult on the lifestyle of wild horses - how the grow up, life in the herd, harems, etc. I'd like to learn more. Thanks.
He is handsome! I see his battle scars. Love Liberty! Gus was my first love, first picture of a Wild Colonial Spanish Mustang. I hope to see him again one day! ❤️
Libertad! He’s my favorite. I remember when he was born - can’t believe it’s already been 6 years.
Such a handsome boy ❤️..he looks alot like Rambler, but he's darker more black than Liberty I think
Such a great job to have. Study the lives and habits of wild horses. I’m jealous🥰
I remember when Liberty was born. He’s looking great! ❤️
Will you keep an eye on the mare that he may have to see if she had a baby. Just curious about the tracking
Fighting so hard for his mare, must be love! ❤️ Looking forward to the beautiful babies these two will create! 🐴❤️
Is he the only black stallion with both back hooves white? If so I have seen running about, so beautiful!
Thank you Corolla Wild Horse Fund…. Now I have a name for this shiny stud! And Autumn also!
He’s absolutely beautiful! Love all of them ❤️🐴❤️
Which mare was his prize?
We see him and a buddy on our road a lot. Love his socks. He’s a sweet boy! 🤎
He's grown to be absolutely beautiful!!
Maybe he will be the “one”!🎉🎉
I wish I could identify them by name - I see them every August 😊😊
I remember seeing him as a baby!
Wow! He is very handsome and she’s stunning! Should be beautiful babies!
Just saw horses on Sunday morning moments of nature♥️🐴
He is spectacular!
I have to ask, as I do every now and then, ant sightings of Gus?
On top of the world!
If you are visiting our beaches this weekend, please remember to air down, slow down, and stay 50ft from the horses at all times. 🏖
And if you don’t know if you are 50 foot from them, you are too close.
We so enjoyed our vacation in Duck. Knowing we were going to look for the horses, we took the time and stopped by the museum for some horse education. I highly recommend this. Made our “there they are” moment so much more special, because the dos and don’ts had been spelled out.
We have been riding the beach over 40+ years and never have we taken air out of the tires! A good four wheel truck or Jeep will get thru the sand. Definitely watch for horses, dogs and people! It has gotten extremely busy over many years there! We are native Carolinians 🥰🐎
Bob drove a Toyota Tundra, Bob didnt air down. Despite 4w drive, Bob got stuck…..dont be Bob…..
And, this should go without saying since people must stay 50 feet away, but...DO NOT FEED THE HORSES!
I’m wondering, since these horses have mustang blood lines, is there any way your organization can advocate for the wild mustangs in the west. Their land is slowly being taken by grazers that have money The BLM is planning another round up, these horses need help. I love your post and one day I hope to come there and see them.
And if the horses come your way, get out of the way and back in your vehicle!!
Air down, it’s those who don’t that cause all the ripples in the ruts, and not airing down causes your vehicle to work harder and overheat easier, thus those whose vehicles have caught fire.
There is a current post asking what the speed limit is on the back roads up in that area. Some are saying 35MPH?????? And it's a "no fault" if a kid or horse is hit/killed? Seriously?? Can't possibly be. IS there a speed limit on those back roads?? I can't imagine it would be ore than 25mph and even at that.....
Such a beautiful sight!
Beautiful picture! ❤️🐴❤️
And do not feed them ANYTHING !
Best Picture Ever…. August can’t come soon enough 😊😊
Dos and don'ts are extremely important. Thanks for sharing. 🐎🐎🐎
And please, do not feed the horses!!!
And no parking without a permit! Order early because they go fast!
Beautiful View
Beautiful shot!
See you in August!
A gift to see! 😍
CROWDED UP THERE ‼️ONE WAY IN AND ONE WAY OUT. Easy access Kitty Hawk and South.
Love this ❤️

We were talking about Star (pictured below) at the open house today. He is the grandfather of several of the Dews Island mares who live at the farm now. Star was an iconic stallion who was tragically hit and killed on Rt 12 in the early 90s. He was not the first horse to lose its life on the paved road, and his death was the final straw for a concerned and dedicated group of citizens who were determined to protect these special horses. This award-winning film tells their story - click on the link below to watch the trailer and purchase your copy!Watch the free trailer and download your copy from the Wild Horse Museum and Giftshop Here! www.corollawildhorses.com/shop/the-secret-of-corolla/

In my opinion, this movie is a "must have" for anyone supporting the Corolla horses and the Corolla Wild Horse Fund. It's a magnificently made documentary with incredible imagery and videos, poignant narrative, and amazing music. I've watched it numerous times as have my grandchildren. I can't adequately express what a magnificent documentary this is. ❤️
I still have the poster of Star, as well as the Outer Banks Magazine featuring him on the cover. God, he was beautiful. Broke my heart when he died.
Hé used to come in our yard with his pals and was the most beautiful stallion. We have them on video. I cried the day I heard he was gone. You are doing a wonderful job protecting the horses. I thank you. ❤️❤️❤️
Star and his photo on the cover of OBX magazine are the reason I love the corolla horses to this day. He started it all for me. 🖤
When I was little I “adopted” Star and a few others - one of y’all’s very early fundraising efforts. But I never forgot him & our family has never forgotten your mission 💔 Absolutely incredible where you all are today. Thank you for re-sharing the film - Whitney (Jim & Suzy’s daughter)
I am so looking forward to watching the film. We vacationed on the Outer Banks for 4-5 summers in the early 90’s and loved it. I vividly remember hearing of Star’s tragic death, and saved the magazine with his photo on the cover for 30 years for some strange reason....
I’m a huge fan of Corolla Wild Horse Fund. I miss living there. Was active at the Corolla Chapel before they moved it, tour guide at Whalehead, and loved the horses when they stop by to say hello! That was 20 years ago. I was married in that chapel! Miss my old friends. ❤️
I do remember when he was tragically killed. And was so glad to see this beautiful herd saved from being wiped out at that time. Watching people in Corolla feed them, seeing them knock over trash cans to rummage was not what I wanted for this herd in my special place. Thank you to all who have supported and taken care of this herd over the years. To see them still in the OBX after my first visit as an adult in 1988 was awesome.
Need to get this! How I Love the Wild Horses & would Love to know more of the history about them! ❤️🐴❤️
I remember Star from when I was a kid! He was a beautiful horse!! Devastating loss for the herd.
I saw Star a few times back in the 90's. He as magnificent!
He was beautiful
Visiting the wild horses of Corolla will forever be one of my favorite memories. ❤️
See you next month! Save us a copy
Will see you in Early Fall... So Beautiful!!
We lived in Duck at that time & Star was Magnificent
We always love our horses who used to wander around our property! we miss them!
I’ve lived on the OB (from U.K. 🇬🇧) when I was 20/21 back in 1996. Best 2 years of my life ❤️
Do you have any calendars with the horses on them?
Susan Van Arnam Haritos Cheryl Van Arnam Woodward whatever happened to the picture grandma and Grandaddy had of him?
So many wonderful memories and comments on the great stallion! He is still inspiring and working to protect the Corolla Wild Horses to this day! I will at some point share the story of tracking down the original photographer for this magnificent photograph! He is a gifted artist that was willing to share his work with us all! Thank You Drew Wilson for sharing your talent to mark this story in North Carolina history forever! You have inspired so many people over generations! I am honored to have included your legendary photograph in my film.
The gentleman at the museum we met last fall was amazing. Kind and informative. Bless all the volunteers.

Good reminder from Currituck Outer Banks! Stay 50ft away at all times and always be aware of your surroundings! The horses are wild and unpredictable. Admire from a distance and everyone stays safe!#StaySafeSunday Please remember to stay at least 50 feet or further away from the Corolla wild horses at all times, and only admire them from afar. Please respect their space and give them room... It is for their safety as well as ours. Please also do not feed, lure, or entice these precious animals as these acts are all dangerous and against the law. We are so thankful that the Corolla wild horses live and roam free here on our beach... They are our treasures and your help is greatly appreciated to keep them WILD and free. If you see cruelty or laws being broken, please call the Currituck County Sheriff at 252-453-8204 or the Corolla Wild Horse Fund at 252-453-8002. Stay safe out there! Thank you very much! 🥰
Do you ever just post pretty pics without spouting all the rules? Such a buzzkill
You keep reminding people that the horses are WILD. When you post beautiful photos and cute ones of the little ones, people think they're friendly. It's your responsibility to warn people. Thank you for your hardworking and education of these beauties.
Corolla Wild Horse Fund thank you for the pictures of these magnificent animals. Also for educating the public that these are wild animals and we are on their turf not at a petting zoo.
Alex Harbison if people would follow the rules they wouldn’t have to keep posting them- 🙄Corolla Wild Horse Fund y’all are amazing 🎉🙌🏼 keep posting the rules!!!
They post beautiful photos all the time. They are committed to keeping these beautiful horses (as well as humans)safe.
Please tell me the rules a million more times if it saves any of the herd.
I’m happy if you begin every post with “the rules.” Maybe if people read them enough, they’ll actually understand!!! 😒 Besides, although I do enjoy seeing the horses, I’m pretty sure your objective isn’t to please the general public!!! 😜 Thank you for your hard work and dedication in caring for the herd. 👏🏻 🙏🏻♥️
It also will help save their lives!
If there were no rules there would be no pictures of beautiful horses. Get a grip and respect the tireless efforts of the Fund.
Given the randomness of what people actually see on fb, every part is an opportunity to teach someone and maybe make a difference
I hope for a day we don't have to keep telling 'Merica the rules. Until then - keep up the amazing work, and posting the rules!
Thank You for trying to get it across for the Umpteenth time to People not to FEED or Stay ur Distance from them💕💕. They r so Beautiful and we want to Keep them Around and their Baby Foal’s🙏🙏 Corolla Wild Horse Fund Thank You for what u do!! I wanted to let u know that. We seen the Horses twice. Such Beauty🥰 We wanted to come and do it again about 2 wks back but it didn’t work out. Hopefully there will be more times. Fingers crossed 🤞
Thank you Corolla Wild Horse Fund for speaking up for these beautiful horses. We are truly blessed to have them living at the Outer Banks!
If you can't obey the rules, go back where you came from!
Thank you for reminding us how lucky we are and how people need to be reminded over & over to just let them be!
You don't want a protective stallion coming for you!!!
I can’t believe people are stupid enough to try and get close to them to “pet the horsey!” 🙄
One of the issues is that these people, hundreds of thousands, are visiting every year and they need reminding, obviously.
These are needed because signs worked so well in Yellowstone.
Many people have been to Assateauge Island & been around the horses. They think they can act the same way with the Corolla horses. It's a shame how there is no respect on Assateauge. If you get all those stupid people going to Corolla you're going to have a lot of dead horses.
Sunday morning brawl!!
Just enjoy these beautiful creatures !!
Thank you for everything you all do!
Hey, that's my house! I think I got this on my Arlo!
If SOME would follow the rules, maybe there wouldnt be alot of posting. The horses welfare comes first
Cricket today (she was born at the beginning of May) with her mom and the stallion they’ve been with since she was born. It’s unlikely he’s her sire but he’s taking great care of her nonetheless. Good boy, Knight! DNA is the only surefire way to determine who a foal’s father is, and once Cricket is a bit older we’ll be able to get a tissue sample for analysis. Then her genetic information can go into our database and be on the record forever! 🧬🐴
It's so amazing to see the family dynamics you share with us. Thank you!
Family or not they are beautiful together!
Thank you for sharing the family histories with us!
Why do you think he is not her sire?
I'm curious -- where does the tissue sample come from? (I'm guessing it's a fecal sample??)
Thank you so for sharing the relationships of the wild!
Can't wait to visit with you at the farm next week!!!
I can’t wait for our vacation in Corolla this summer. After following your page for a few years, I sometimes can recognize the horses in their groups when we see them! Especially if we see a foal, they always make it easier lol. Little cuties are recognizable and memorable for sure.
It’s so interesting how you all keep track of their heritage.
This is so beautiful! Is it unusual for a stallion to accept another’s offspring? I thought they would reject and possibly even harm a foal that wasn’t his. We as humans can learn a thing or two about acceptance of others. ❤️
They're such a beautiful family!
I love what you do for these horses. Thanks for sharing.
Cricket is adorable!!!! Beautiful picture!!!
What a beautiful family photo! Who cares who her "real" dad is for photo purposes 🙂 But what makes you think he isn't her sire? I'm just curious...
Thank you for all you do to keep these horses safe and thriving
Beautiful family, sire or not. ❤️🐴
She's adorable!
You’ve probably been asked this before but how do you come up with the names?
I love reading your posts especially the babies..how many so far this year?? Ithink last I saw it was 4?
I know cats, not horses, so don't laugh at me...is mom pregnant?
What a beautiful trio!❤️❤️❤️🙏🎁
Yes, thanks for sharing your knowledge , didn’t realize it was actually done through DNA , very cool
Cool very very cool Camp thanks for sharing love you girlfriend hope everything is well hope to see you soon
Do horses naturally not select related family to breed with? How do you control in-breeding?
Beautiful horses!!
One of the most common questions we get is “do the horses get in the ocean?” When it’s hot and buggy, they do! And today was both of those things. This is Surfer with his mares Cora and Peaches, and yearling colt Bravo. 🌊 Surfer saw something down the beach that got his attention and moved everyone on not long after this video was taken. (Second video in the comments!)
I was staying in a beautiful rental in duck and three stories high. Came out in morning and was headed down the stairs. Well one of the horses was halfway up the stairs!!! Omg. Scared me to death. I ran right back up! lol
Love it. They're smart!
They are gorgeous!! Surfer is very handsome & protective! Thank you for all your posts & hard work! Prayers for a safe summer for these wonderful creatures!
He is truly magnificent! Copper beauty!
Do they get dehydrated like humans in the salt water? Btw I read your page every post.. these horses are spectacular.. I only know some re: horses as my daughter rides for the last 11 years.. I do love learning about these horses .. & am mystified why anyone would approach as they are wild .. keep on sharing and thank you.
Awe Surfer visits us every year. Last year he was all alone. I’m so happy to see he has some ladies now!
They are absolutely beautiful. That would be awesome seeing them.
Absolutely gorgeous!!! Surfer is taking care of his ladies.
I'll bet that warm salt water feels good to the bug bites and helps heal them! Very lucky horses to have their own swimming pool
Been a great joy to see these beauties in person yearly since the mid 80s. Their beauty, majesty and history never get old .
Hi Corolla Wild Horse Fund! We LOVE this video...it is so sweet. Thanks for sharing! We are wondering if you'd be willing to share it with our news station so we can share it on our newscasts?
This reminds me of the wild horses on Chincoteague Island in Virginia.
Do they sand colic much?
So beautiful. Pray they have a relaxing summer without too many people.
Gorgeous horses, so shiny, healthy, and loving their beach life!! Thanks for sharing this great video!!
They ran up behind us as we were walking along looking for shells. It was a once in a lifetime thing. We just stood perfectly still as they ran by, we had no clue until they were right behind us! Absolutely amazing 😍
Silly question...when they are in they water, do they sink in the sand like I do, when I stand in one spot very long? That one in they waves doesn't look like she's having a problem. They are absolutely Stunning!!!🤗❤️
Excellent videos 🤩 I so love the fascinating and beautiful wild horses of Corolla 🥰
I witnessed this in person and it was the most amazing and beautiful seeing them. Nature in its glory! ♥️♥️♥️
As always they look happy healthy and loving life! Thank you Corolla Wild Horse Fund
Surfer is a very good looking horse! Almost looks like he has some Arabian in him….?
He is gorgeous. How old is Surfer?
Oh my he's gorgeous gorgeous, I love how they get to live there and feel the ocean still like all their ancestors.
I'd run as far away from humans as I could if I were them. Gorgeous!!! ❤
