These tours are administered seasonally by both the Corolla Wild Horse Fund and privately run businesses like Wild Horse Adventure Tours that specialize in bringing visitors to the wild horses' favorite stomping grounds, increasing a vacationer's chances of spotting one of these somewhat elusive local legends. On your next vacation, consider a day trip to the northern beaches of Carova to catch a glimpse of the wild horses, and remember to always keep your eyes peeled - the Corolla Wild Horses may very well be enjoying a nice beach day just around the corner.įor those who want a better chance at spotting the horses in their natural habitat, consider a Corolla Wild Horse tour. That said, admiring the horses from a distance is its own reward, and the photos that can be snapped of a small herd wandering along the ocean wash, or grazing lightly in the sand dunes, are easily the most treasured souvenirs of any Outer Banks vacation for lucky Carova visitors who just happen to cross their path. Fruits and vegetables can cause serious injury or even death to the horse. Wild horses have a very different diet from domesticated animals. It is illegal (and dangerous) to approach within 50 feet of the horses. Visitors are reminded that the Wild Colonial Spanish Mustangs are, in fact, wild. Obviously, vacationers won't be able to expect to ride the horses, or come close enough for a pet on the neck. It's because of this desolation, coupled with the help from the Corolla Wild Horse Fund, that the wild horses are able to thrive, relatively undisturbed by the limited development that has sprung up around them over the past 50 years. Stranded on the Outer Banks for centuries, but still enjoying the laid-back beach lifestyle, these feral and wild creatures are tolerant of the visitors who visit their beaches for the warm sun, cool waves, and miles of space. Shipping prices vary due to location.Visitors to the 4WD accessible beaches just north of Carova may experience a truly remarkable encounter with the area's oldest and most beloved residents, the Wild Colonial Spanish Mustangs.

The Pryor Mountain Wild Mustang Center is a public, nonprofit 501(c)(3) educational institution, unique in purpose and location.
It is the purpose of the PRYOR MOUNTAIN WILD MUSTANG CENTER to do just that. If lost, the herd cannot be restored and so its biological viability, together with its history, must be preserved. This tough little horse, derived from the horses of Portugal and Spain, has been present in this rugged mountain area for nearly 200 years. This herd of horses is very special because of its Colonial Spanish American heritage.
Wild horses still roam freely in the Pryor Mountains outside of Lovell, Wyoming.
