Description
Cumberland Island is one of a handful of places on the East Coast that are home to bands of feral horses. The horses on Cumberland are usually called "wild" horses, but like the Chincoteague Ponies, the Australian Brumbies and the Mustangs out west, Cumberland's are actually feral. This means that their ancestors were once domesticated and that these horses have been left to fend for themselves in the wild. It's not unusual for the Cumberland horses to reach 15 hands (5 feet tall at the shoulder), and they are longer legged and longer backed than other East Coast feral horses.
