| Summary |
In 1995, while filming America's wild horses in the mountains of Montana, Ginger Kathrens discovered a striking, almost pure white colt just hours after his birth. Kathrens named him Cloud. She feared that his distinctive coat would make him an obvious target for mountain lions; but he survived and Kathrens continued to follow him in his adventures. In Cloud: Wild Stallion of the Rockies this wild horse developed from a bumbling, unsteady colt into an adventurous, defiant youth. In Cloud's Legacy: The Wild Stallion Returns, Cloud is now a band stallion with a mare and her children, a yearling and a foal. Cloud struggles to keep his family intact in the face of challenges both natural and manmade. These threats include rivals, the climate, predators, the horses' dependence on public grazing lands shared with cattle, and government agencies struggling to manage both human and equine interests. |
