Discovering the Horses of Sable Island

SABLE ISLAND
IS HOME TO 500 WILD HORSES OF MYSTERIOUS
ORIGIN

THEY ARE RULERS OF THEIR OWN ISOLATED KINGDOM


Writers of their own
destiny & the only
full-time occupants
of this untamed land

Icons of Survival

Their breed is a testament to the resiliency of
Mother Nature

ONE OF A KIND

Sable Island’s 13 sq. miles are like nowhere else on Earth

Man has failed at colonizing this wild enclave. Because of this, the horse’s continued existence is

surreal

GRAVEYARD OF THE ATLANTIC


Shrouded in fog
125 days a year, the
island is home to a
record number of
shipwrecks

The colors of Sable are as unique as the island itself;
a blanched white beach, bright blue water, and unbelievably vibrant green appear painted onto its shores



"Drew’s images of the Sable Island horses form a lasting testimonial to a group of very special horses that have learned to live as truly wild beings; it is a triumph of art, tenacity, and a passionate vision of the love of the wild."
