Some of them were even complicit in it when it came to retiring their \\u201cbroken\\u201d and \\u201clame\\u201d horses.\\n\\nManda feels like quitting, even frequently so. She\\u2019s very emotionally invested in the pursuit to change the perception of wild horses and doing as much as she can to change their fate.\\n\\nManda works with Moses Brings Plenty, who appears on the hit show Yellowstone. Together, they\\u2019ve gone on multiple excursions to save horses.\\n\\nFox 5 anchor Rosanna Scotto was interviewing Manda and her horse Pila when Pila decided he needed to relieve his bladder a little too close to Rosanna!\\n\\nTo learn more about Manda\'s mission, please visit https://canafoundation.org/\\n\\nThis episode of #thePOZcast is sponsored by Caraway Cookware.
