WCAX does not have the video up yet, but you might be interested in hearing what Shirley Langlois of North Fairfax has to say. As soon as they have the video up, I will give you the link so you can see it if you wish.
Interesting how they round up these wild horses:
"Greene is an equine specialist for the University of Vermont. In 2010, she witnessed one of the roundups in California as part of a group sent to monitor the process. The Bureau did use a helicopter and then a trained horse.
"They have one horse that has been trained to run back to the pens for feed and they call it the Judas or Prada horse. So basically they turn that horse loose and all he says is look, come this way. The horses all follow and it is amazing to watch," Greene said."

Shirley Langloise of Fairfax adopted a mustang in 2000. She comes back every year to encourage others to adopt, too. She admits there are many challenges to training these wild creatures.
"And I try to tell people about them and they do make wonderful horses, but you have to be patient. That is the main thing, having patience," Langloise said.
