The Hoofprints Guide to the Wild Horses of Ocracoke Island
Wild horses, once vital to the Outer Banks livestock industry, remained on Ocracoke after forces of “progress” had obliterated them elsewhere. Pony pennings lasted until the 1950s, and the world’s only mounted Boy Scout troop persisted until the 1960s. Reduced to a roadside attraction, the herd nearly died out. Recovery has been slow, and the prognosis is uncertain.
