Running Wild 2013


Running Wild: The Life of Dayton O. Hyde     Dayton O. Hyde is a cowboy, conservationist, award-winning writer and he is 88 years old.  He was always drawn to horses, when he witnessed the ill treatment of wild mustangs, he had to do something about it.  He established a sanctuary to help them and to preserve their bloodline.  The Black Hills Wild Horse Sanctuary in South Dakota has 12,000 acres and more than 500 mustangs.  All the wild horses were rescued from the wild horse roundups.  He also raises cattle to supplement the income needed to run the ranch.
     This cowboy has had a long and interesting life.  He cares about people too and many people are changed after they visit the sanctuary.  He also offers a place for Native American Indians to do their sun dance.  There are many scenes of beautiful animals and the unspoiled land.  3 ½* (I liked this movie)

Note:  Imdb 7.6 out of 10. 100% audience on Rotten Tomatoes.
