Australia's Wild Horses: The Remarkable Fight for Survival

High up in the rugged, windswept peaks of the Snowy Mountains, a remarkable story of survival against the odds plays out every single day. Originally brought over by early settlers and later abandoned due to mechanization, Australia’s wild horses, known locally as Brumbies, have forged a hardy way of life in one of the flattest yet most extreme continents on Earth. From enduring scorched summer droughts to digging through freezing alpine snow blizzards, these resilient creatures have completely adapted to their environment. This is a look at the beautiful, complicated reality of the free-roaming herds caught between natural selection, devastating bushfires, and human intervention.
