The Wildling Museum is pleased to announce a special presentation by acclaimed equine
author and photographer Deborah Kalas on Sunday, March 15, 2020 from 3 – 4:30 p.m. Kalas will share her
experiences working with wild horses, along with highlights from her latest publication, The Wild Herd: A
Vanishing American Treasure.
Kalas’ work provides a unique glimpse into wild herds of horses that have roamed North America for
hundreds of years, with a special focus on the wild herds of North Dakota’s Theodore Roosevelt National
Park. Kalas follows bands of horses throughout the changing seasons and the animals’ distinct changing
cycles of life, capturing rare moments of untamed horses roaming the wild.
The Wild Herd also highlights the dangers faced by these wild horses, due to current government policies and
a lack of public understanding of their historical and cultural importance, which Kalas illuminates with helpful
links to key organizations involved in protecting these herds.
Copies of The Wild Herd: A Vanishing American Treasure (Hardcover, 180 pages, color, $65.00) are available
for purchase in the Wildling Museum Store.
