🐎 “I want you to know who I am.”
I am Iris. I am a Salt River wild horse, only the most important one! (genetically speaking) Out of the five foals of 2024, only three of us made it… and I am the only female. That makes me the youngest Salt River mare.
I have survived mountain lions, floods, extreme heat, and drought.
🧬 Through my mother Venus and my father Orion, I carry the bloodlines of four historic Salt River stallions—Sarge, Halftail, Moon and Wisdom—lines that helped shape this herd, now carried forward in me.
I am Iris and I just wanted you to know who I am. Iris.😉
