User's notes

Single extremely skinny horse, i belive an escapee as it was shod. Not sure if we confirm as a brumby or not.

This is how all the feral horses began - escapes from domesticity, so I have confirmed

I have also heard from locals of people deliberately releasing unwanted horses into the park.

They definitely do that. But no, it cant be right. Dont you know these are all 'brumbies' descended from god and interbreeding between John Brumby and all the horses in the charge at Beersheeba?
