A blog that focuses on our unique program that teaches natural horsemanship, heritage breed conservation, soil and water conservation, and even folk, roots, and Americana music. This blog discusses our efforts to prevent the extinction of the Corolla Spanish Mustang. Choctaw Colonial Spanish Horse, Marsh Tacky, and the remnants of the Grand Canyon Colonial Spanish Horse strain.

Who Cares?
It turns out that a lot of people care about the future of the Corollas and they are quite a diverse group. This week I received some very helpful information on DNA and its application to our offsite breeding program from a mustang expert in Germany. I am always open to learning while at the same time being very hostile to modern technologies. It seems to me that the suggestions that I received will go a long way towards maximizing the limited amount of genetic diversity that exists among these horses.
I certainly appreciated the information.
