The most spectacular winter wildlife event in Eastern Canada is on Sable Island when over 300,000+ grey seals arrive to battle, breed and birth. Almost 100,000 pups will be born before most parents head back to the sea and it’s a fascinating few weeks of the year with sights and sounds found nowhere else on earth.
Amidst this winter backdrop, the 450 wild horses are dressed in their woolly winter coats. The horses often spend less time eating and more time playing and napping in the harsher season. We’ll learn how the horses survive the winter, their rhythm of life, and their origins.
