About the
Photographer and Co-founders of Wild Horse Spirit Bobbi Royle and Betty, co-founders of Wild Horse Spirit, were fortunate to live harmoniously among free roaming bands while living in a foothill community east of Reno, Nevada. They learned first hand of their natural beauty in the wild, their highly evolved sensitive family structure, their great intelligence, their sound bodies, their tolerance at the hands of not so well-meaning people, and, of course, their "Spirits". They fell in love with them. Once rehabilitated and gentled, some were adopted to loving and responsible homes, but most remain on the sanctuary. In 1994, Bobbi and Betty moved and brought the rescued "Spirits" to their new larger Wild Horse Spirit sanctuary in Washoe Valley, near Carson City, Nevada. Bobbi and Betty continue to be activists for the survival and rights of free roaming wild horses and burros as a native species of North America and to remain free on their native home ranges.
