ep198 Snow White Stallion

Warrior of the Woodland, struggling against extreme odds, traveling dangerous trails, fighting the many enemies of nature.

This is the job of the Guardian of the Forest, Ranger Bill, pouring rain, freezing cold, blistering heat, snow, floods, bears, rattlesnakes, mountain lions. Yes, all this in exchange for the satisfaction and pride of a job well done.

Hi there boys and girls, I'm Ranger Bill, here to tell you another story of the West. I wonder if you recognize that sound. Horses hoops you'll say and you'll be right. But there are different kinds of horses, a wild horse.

Yes, there are still a few herds of real wild horses left in the West, not very many, but a few. First day these horses are all descended from pure bread Spanish horses. Horses brought over here hundreds and hundreds of years ago by the conquest of tours.

Mostly they're what we call scrub stock, small and runny, and not much good for anything. But once in a while a real beauty will turn up, throw back to the original breed. Now remember, these horses are really wild and they can be very fierce and dangerous.

Our story today is about one of those special horses, certainly the most perfect, the most beautiful horse that I ever saw. What happened to him and to Henry is what I call the story of Snow White Standing.

Piyud? Huh? You asleep? I may not sleep. We are on big hunt now. Me quiet. Me watch. Me look. Okay. Me quiet. Me look. Me watch too. He's just a lion out here on the prairie and the sun makes a fella kind of sleepy.

I'm not Indian fella. Oh. Say, you think we'll see any of those wild horses today? I think so. Watch over by draw. Sun start to go down pretty soon. Horses come out of draw. Go get drink of water.
