A young spring foal cuddles up to its mother for protection. The wild horses of Sable Island, Nova Scotia are the only unmanaged wild horse population in North America. They survive despite the odds, on a small windswept island off the Atlantic Coast, about 300km from Halifax. The island is famous for its sand dunes and shipwrecks and is known historically as the Graveyard of the Atlantic. The wild horses have been there since the mid 1700's, brought in by settlers long ago and are now considered a "naturalized species". The island is now a National Park, uninhabited except for a small team of Parks Canada personnel and a handful of researchers that come and go throughout the year. Access to the island is by permit only and photographer Debra Garside is the only professional photographer to have accessed the island for long term expeditions in all four seasons. She has dedicated the last 15 years to capturing unique equine images of this iconic wild horse.
