INTRUDER

The mustang was well adapted to roam
the western plains. when winter snow ano
ice began to cover his grazing gkound t tne
mustang did not migrate south like manv other
animals. seldom travelling more than twenty
miles, he used his sharp hoof, digging through
7h£ snow to peed on buffalo grass .'

WHEN HE WAS THIRST/, THE MVSTAWG USED
HIS POWERFUL LEGS TO BREAK THROUGH TNE
ICE OF FROZEN STREAMS TO REACH THE
FLOWING WATER BELOW.

When the hungry panther attacked, the strong
wild horse would try to shake himself- free ano
crush the attacker w/th repeated blows of his
sharp hoops.

Mares taught Their Colts to rest
their heads on mother's back while sw/m-
ming the swiftly flowing streams. the
mustang colts learned at an early age
7he tricks of surviving in the wilderness.

Civilization has all but wiped out the
mustang. a few herds still roam gemote
western stretches to remind us of k
thousands thundered over the plains.
