[RC] Heidi/guard horses and elk - Ridecamp GuestPlease Reply to: Skyla SLStewart@xxxxxxxxxxxx or ridecamp@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ========================================== Heidi, I would "pay" to see a video of this, any chances that you could share with us in the future? This sounds like a $10K winner to me. :o) ***I free-feed my mares in the winter on big bales, and I was pretty concerned about the elk moving in and running them off their feed--I underestimated old-timey Arabian broodmares! They actually put "guard mares" along the fenceline that go stiff-legging around in front of the hungry elk like dogs parading in front of strange dogs--and if the elk get any closer than some imagined perimeter around the hay, the signal goes out, all the heads go up and the tails go up and it looks like a cavalry charge. And the elk go runnin'*** ============================================================ for a wet, tired female Endurance Rider! A good crew person has patience, a sense of humor, and knows that sometimes it's best to say nothing at all! ~ Jim Holland ridecamp.net information: http://www.endurance.net/ridecamp/ ============================================================
