When early Spanish explorers accidentally released wild horses (Equus cabalus) to the continent in the early 1500s, they returned an American original. Although the remnants of the escaped Spanish horse are protected by the 1971 Free-Roaming Wild Horse and Burro Act, each year thousands are removed from public lands across the American West to reduce competition between horses and domestic livestock. El Caballo documents one of the most complex wildlife management issues today. Where do modern wild horses fit in our view of the natural world?
Customer Review: Lets us roam
Living with horses for more than 15 years this DVD supposing about horses, reviles for a defiant fact, the fractious behavior of mankind toward this beautiful and gentle creature. The outrages acts of BLM in the name of management reminds me on the "acts" and managements of native Indian in America that brought them almost to physical extermination and for spiritual dome. I was shocked by the torture of Horses shown driven into cages tracks and round pans the horses terrifying eyes shivering bodied bringing spirit to self-inflicting death. This is not really about horses it is about the destruction nature of humans and deceptions of governmental agencies, the horse serves here only as victim. I recommend this film to everybody who cares and have influence to change man attitude towards nature.
