The season has officially started! A reminder if you’re visiting the 4x4 beaches this weekend and all summer long:

It is illegal to intentionally come within 50ft of the horses, and this applies when you are inside a vehicle too. If a horse approaches you, move away from it. Not only are the horses dangerous, but encouraging this kind of behavior can lead to habituation that could result in the horse’s removal from the wild. Feeding kills. Apples and carrots are not part of their natural diet and can cause fatal choke and colic. Don’t be the reason a horse loses its freedom, or even worse, its life.

Foals are adorable and everyone wants to get a good photo, but crowding and stressing harems with foals can lead to all kinds of potentially life-threatening issues. Foals can get separated from their mothers, stressed horses can become aggressive towards you and each other, and foals can become exhausted and dehydrated from constantly moving around. Please keep your distance and do not put undue pressure on these youngsters.

If you’re 50ft away that means you aren’t feeding the horses, habituating them, or putting yourself in danger of being kicked by an irritated mare. Everything is great! It’s really easy to do and you’ll have just as much fun, we promise. If you see someone breaking the law or behaving in a dangerous manner, please immediately call 252-453-3633 so that law enforcement can be dispatched and CWHF notified.
