Anyone see the third PBS special about Cloud the wild horse?

I thought it was odd that both Cloud and the other stallion let those young stallions stay with the bands..From what little I know that's very unusual.

I am not a mustang person. I was born and raised on the philosophies of registered Quarter horses being the elite, but I like Cloud. His story is just pretty great. 8)

HS have you seen the "Blue Planet" series? Or "Wild Russia"? They are marvelous--awesome..Make me think.

Planet Earth has Birds of Paradice that hadn't been filmed before.
Wild Russia has Yakut horses that live out in Siberia in temps that reach 95f below zero!
I have great admiration for those film makers.
