One of our missions here at the Black Hills Wild Horse Sanctuary is helping to preserve rare breeds of American and Spanish Mustangs that helped to build our nation and create the American West.

Meet the Curly Mustang

The Native Americans considered the Curlys to be special mounts for Medicine Men and Chief. Artwork from the Battle of the Little Big Horn shows warriors riding Curly Mustangs in the battle. Join us in celebration of this unique, friendly little horse that whose beautiful curls and gentle ways will win your heart. Help us to support and promote this special mustang breed.

The Curly Mustangs here at the Sanctuary all came here to live and help to teach others about their place in History.

Lakota Song is the dun and white tobiano Curly Mustang Stallion. He was gifted in 2011 by the Sacred Way Spirithorses & Buffalo  Sanctuary. This gift was in honor of the traditional relationship between the curly horse and the Indians of the Great Plains.

The sorrel Curly filly is Misty and she was Lakota’s first band member. Catlapa is the oldest and she is a grulla Kiger Mustang Curly. Rosy is the youngest of the band and she has bloodlines that goes back to wild mustangs.
