  • Summary

  • Jennifer Lynch Fitzgerald tells the story of her relationship with Maddie, a mustang rescued in Habersham County, Georgia from a man who was collecting horses to sell for meat.  When Maddie was found, she’d been tied to a tree for months, was malnourished and very angry.  Jen tells how, in spite of her limited experience with horses, she learned to train or "gentle" Maddie.  She discusses what she's learned about horse language and what it's meant to her to develop a relationship with an animal who was once wild.  This is the first installment of a short series of episodes on horses.  Horses have played such a significant role in human history that they are an important part of the nature/ culture nexus.  Before we delve into the history, however, I wanted to start with a story of a relationship between one human animal and one horse animal.
