Dec 24, 2005: Happy Festivus! Dec 22, 2005: I think you are very smart people!!!! Dec 20, 2005: I am at work researching new ideas for our website and I want to let you know that your site looks good, you have great information. I work for a company that offers horse decor and chocolates. Dec 16, 2005: Hello -- I was enthralled by your site. I was reading a book called Wild About Horses, by Canadian author Lawrence Scanlan, in which the Sable Island horses were briefly mentioned, and I wanted to know more -- what a treasurehouse your Web site is! Wonderful, wonderful photos and so much information -- this is surely a model for what the Internet should be. Thank you! (BTW, googling "sable island horses" for Images brings your site up first, good work!) Now I have a question, about the late-season foals -- do they make it through the winters OK? I was quite surprised to see foals dropping as late as September. Now that I think of it, one topic I don't see much about is horse mortality, but I guess there could be good reasons not to discuss that publicly. I am a horse-lover and proud owner of a traditional-style Morgan, who is not so dissimilar to the Sable Island horses! Dec 15, 2005: hi you need more stuff about the sand doons!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Dec 11, 2005: I would like to know if there are rats on the island. I would like to think there is continued funds available to support research on the Island. Dec 05, 2005: I was watching a programme about trawlers out of Glouseter and Sable Island was mentioned. What a fascinating place and the website is superb, loads of info for the naturally curious.The photographs of the ponies up on the scrub in the snow could have been taken up on Dartmoor which lies to the west of where I live. Dartmoor also has wild ponies that are rounded up, known as the 'drift' in autumn.(approx 3,000) We have yet to see any seals or whale carcass's mind! Its encouraging to see that utmost care is taken over conservation and anti-pollution matters. The amount of scientific data is astonishing I would imagine an island such as Sable is heaven sent for this purpose, but how stable is it with the sea and weather pounding it and what is its highest point and what of the geology? Looking forward to yuor correspondence. Devon, England. Dec 04, 2005: Would love to be here someday. AMS Meteorologist Dec 04, 2005: Thank you for the info and photos. I am a grade two teacher on a small island off of northern Vancouver Island. I will use the info to teach my students about other parts of Canada and about marine pollution. I consider marine pollution a major concern of our planet. Alert Bay, BC. Nov 29, 2005: I recently saw the movie "Touching Wild Horses" with Jane Seymour. It was a wonderful story and was intrigued to know whether the island was "real" or not. I hopped on Yahoo and found out it was! I can't wait to read all the stories about the island and the horses. It's wonderful to know that there are still places like this on our earth.Thank you. Nov 27, 2005: I have been on this site for about an hour and a half, after seeing "Touching Wild Horses" on the Lifetime channel last night. I am enchanted and drawn to the stark beauty of the island and its adorable wild horses. I want very much to visit this place, as I am an artist and photographer and writer, as well as an amateur videographer and a lover of horses, and I appreciate the kind of beauty and isolation on Sable Island. It resembles some of the islands here in Maine. I am also a birdwatcher, and think I could be very happy here for a year or so. Thank you for this very informative and beautiful site and for the artistic photographs. Waldoboro Maine Nov 27, 2005: This is a beautiful website I stumbled on by accident. I delighted in the captions and photos of the horses, as well as, their history. I think it would be horrible if these historic survivors of the 1700's were to be obliterated, in the event that the Canadians elect to remove the station for their keep. I'm a photographer of wildlife and hope to go to Sable Island and photograph. Is there a place to stay? Nov 26, 2005: I am just now watching the movie "Touching Wild Horses" which inspired me to go to my computer and look up Sable Island. I am now more informed about a subject that has always been near and dear to my heart: horses. I grew up in Virginia, wanting to adopt one of the ponies from Chinctoteague. I shall return to your website and keep up with what is happening with the horses on Sable Island. Nov 25, 2005: What a relaxing journey I've spent, reading your website on the Friday morning after Thanksgiving Day in the US. I was lead here, as I'm sure are many today, by a link from the "Earth Science Picture of the Day". What a most amazing phenomenon, the Morning Glory. Your photographs of it, and all the photos and stories on your website are wonderful. Thanks! Durham, NC Nov 24, 2005: i like this web site but needs more detale on sable island Nov 21, 2005: i came to this site for a school project and it has givin me a great deal of info on sable island thank-you!!!! Nov 14, 2005: I am interested in the names probably because I am interested in the horses and their well being. A name is personal and a way to identify one from the other more than just appearance. I think a 'name' garners a closeness not offered when there is no name. Is there a way for me to contribute to the studies of these wonderful animals ? Nov 13, 2005: I was born in springhill, and love nova scotia and the horses of sable island. I now am 37 yrs old live on vancouver island and still to this day love the mystery and romance of sable island. Is it at all possible for someone to visit sable island? And how would or how could i name a new horse foal??? thank you. Nov 12, 2005: Hi Zoe… The pictures of the horses are very clear and appear to be quite close, are you using a high power telephoto lens? How close to the horses do you get? I liked the story of the girl from the NSAC that had the run in with the male horse, does this happen a lot? I imagine the horses could be really dangerous if they wanted to be and if you got in their way. Are any of the horses tame enough to get close to or to pat them, I had heard a story one time that they used to use the horses for transportation at the weather station, but that practise was stopped many years ago, is this true? I grew up on a small hobby farm so my sister and I always had our own horses and we even had pet cows, likely the only pet cows that were tame and just acted like a horse or a dog, they even came when you called their names. So I have always loved animals whether they were domestic or wild, thus the interest in your horses, I guess. Again I would like to say that your website (and your work) is amazing and I will tell everybody about it...bye. Nov 11, 2005: Excellent web site, I spent all evening browsing on it, very informative and very good photography. Looks like interesting work, how does one get a job in maintenance or something like that? What is the usual length of time spent on the island? How many people work on the island? Best wishes to you and your group. Debert, Nova Scotia. Nov 09, 2005:This is a very informative site, i wish i could visit the island someday. Nov 05, 2005: Excellent Site. Great pictures with a Full back ground of the work done on Sable. This place is a Jewel to not only Nova Scotians but for Canada in whole. This Research along with all the other actitivies should be Funded to it's fullest by our Federal Goverment for the future of our Children. It would be nice to see updated pictures of all the workings done day to day. I must say, you can surely tell the people who live on this Island, take pride to show us "Sable". Keep up the great work!!!!!!! You Must Be Proud!!!!! I'am!!!!!! Nov 03, 2005: Finally get a photographic peek of Gerry with the Minister of Fish. Time for a haircut Gerry. :-) Keep up the good work everyone. Forever Sable Island. Nov 02, 2005: Always like to drop by this site from time to
time. Brings back alot of nice memories. Hopefully, someday before I go 10
toes up, I will be able to just one more time make footprints in the Sable
Island sand. Oct 30, 2005: The site is exceptionally well-designed and informs the reader comprehensively. Text and pictures are truly excellent. Returning to New Jersey from Austria at the very beginning of September I was amazed to see an island in an area that I thought from all previous translatlantic flights to be water without any land. What an amazing surprise to see this slender arc from 30,000 feet above with a crest of green and calm waters surrounding it. I was indeed fortunate to see the unexpected. I am an art historian and also do visual arts; my husband too is involved in the arts. I would very much want to visit the Island. Nature of this kind is very dear to me and would like more information about say yachts or other boats that travel from Nova Scotia --Halifax? -- to Sable. Please inform. with many thanks. Oct 26, 2005: Sable island looks so cool, I really hope to oneday visit and see it for myself. Oct 26, 2005: Hi.That's pretty interesting, that we are so interested in names. I think I am because I want to "know" the horses. Horses have such personality, and beauty, I want to know what distinguishes them, what they are like, how they interact... and like with people, the first thing you want to know is the identifier or name. Imagine going to a party and learning about people's families or what they liked for dinner but not bothering to learn their name. I also wanted to know if people cared to name them... I know they are wild but if I were studying a baboon family I would prefer to know names, not numbers. Mammals have family relationships, for the most part, and identity within the "tribe" - names are important. Oct 25, 2005: I am in middle school and am doing a project on ocean pollution and your site has given me all the info and i will use your name and citation in my bibliography. Oct 25, 2005: Nice bit on Painter R. Savage. Always enjoy updates from Sable.Thankyou. Oct 24, 2005: Why the interest? Maybe to see if the names tell something about the personalities, or to see who is who and who is related to who. You don't know, perhaps horses, in their own particular form of communication name each other. And if they did, maybe they use personality to identify each others names. Oct 23, 2005: great site. Oct 22, 2005: I was looking at the website and thought the naming horses category sounded interesting... how and why do you name the horses. I loved reading through the pages, seeing the beautiful pictures and very interesting descriptions. I certainly could not keep up with the geneology, although fascinating to read who's related to who. Shows that the author, Zoe Lucas, has a superb understanding of the horses. Great job, and thanks! Oct 18, 2005: hello, I saw Sable Island twice from the air and i was fascinated and kept thinking how it would be "douwnthere" thanks to let us know, it is mutch more i suspected, it is just amazing. Portugal. Oct 18, 2005: I love the horses! They are some of the best looking horses I have ever seen Oct 16, 2005: I was looking for something on the oil around Sable Island when I came across this excellent site on Sable Island and everything to do with it. A perfect tool for school children. Did not realize there was so much going on on the Island. Keep up the good work! Oct 14, 2005: The photography is a click "beyond" photography excellence. The narrations accompanying the photos are clear and concise. The website allows easy access to answer any questions a website visitor may have. Bravo! Well done! Oct 13, 2005: this is such a great website. Oct 09, 2005: This is an awsome site with lots of information. I'm 13 and I was doing a project and I spent more than 50 percent of my time reading useful and fasinating information. Thank you very much. Oct 08, 2005: Hi I came to this website because I love horses and the variety of pictures you have is fantastic. I would love to see more pictures of the horses, as they are beautiful animals. Thank you for providing me with this site and take care! Sep 25, 2005: This is a GREAT Site Sep 23, 2005: Amazing website! Easy to navigate, interesting information and beautiful photos. It's a great way to learn more about Sable Island. A pleasure to read. I'll definitely send this link to my friends. I'd love to see those involved in creating this website, and also the people who work on the island. Dept Biology, Acadia University, Wolfville, NS. Sep 20, 2005: I first seen Sable working on the Dept. of Transport ship"Lady Larier" (spelling??) What stories and people there were then. All missed! Then we supplied it by (Sir William Alexander" long gone. Then my time with Sedco, but allways considered it part of Nova Scotia.Halifax even. One thing struck me was the texture of the sand. Rolling the bales of hay up the beach before the tide got them wet then it was too late. How nice it would be to chat with someone that did the same! Sep 13, 2005: WEB-SITE IS VERY INFORMATIVE AND BEAUTIFUL PICTURES. Sep 11, 2005: I liked the name page because it helped me keep track of which horse was which while looking at the other photos by looking at their markings and coloring. Sep 09, 2005: WE ENJOYED THE TRIP BY COMPUTER. AS AN OLD MARITIMER I LOOK ALL I CAN THANKS. Aug 30, 2005: Wow! Great site! It is very informative... We flew over the island on Sunday from Paris back to the states and I was amazed with the topography of the island and intrigued as to what the name of the island was. Upon exiting the plane, I asked the pilot, and he told me that it was Sable Island and that there were a number of wild horses on it. I thought I'd check it out on the web, and am pleasantly surprised with all of the information and photographs that you have uploaded. Great job! Chicago Ill Aug 25, 2005: I am interested because I am an owner of horses, and am always looking for good names for my new colts. Aug 19, 2005: Wonderful Pictures. Its amazing that thses horses are still there. I would like to know what different breeds are there, and the sizes they grow too, also how many are on the island from then till now. Is there a graph that shows numbers, and maybe how long they live. Aug 03, 2005: I live in the state of Maine, love the ocean and horses, we own 8, they are more supportive in their herds than i think humans are.Hope sable island never closes down, everything being researched there is important. If I could ever get away i would love to visit. Also i would hope if it does close somehow the horses could be removed, and placed in wide open space in canada, or adopted out somehow.

Jul 31, 2005: Been in touch with Radio amateurs on Sable Island from July 31,2005 to after August 10th. Reports have been very good about Island and they are making many thousands of Radio contacts with fellow hams around the World. Dayton, Ohio. Jul 28, 2005: I HAVE THOUROUGHLY ENJOYED READING ABOUT SABLE ISLAND. I AM A AMATEUR RADIO OPERATOR AND HAVE CONTACTED STATIONS THERE IN YEARS PAST. THIS IS VERY EDUCATIONAL AND ENJOYABLE READING. MANY THANKS FOR THE OPPORTUNITY TO LEARN MORE ABOUT THE ISLAND. Jul 23, 2005: I just saw the movie Touching Wild Horses and was interested in where the movie was filmed. Sable Island is a beautiful island and the website is fantastic. I hope that someday I will be able to visit this remarkable island. Jul 23, 2005: In the summer Sol 2005 (notes) is pictured a yellow cow lilly. I have never seen one before soooo beautiful. Thanks for showing the island in such detail. The Sable Island Green Horse Society has one of the best web sites bar none. One of the first sites I turn to each day for information and relaxation. Thankyou. Jul 20, 2005: We had read the existence of Sable Island in
a magazine and we did not know such a place existed in Canada. We hope that
it will stay like that forever and hoping that humans will not destroy such
a wild habitat for those animals. We will be checking very often for any
news on this. Keep us informed. Jul 19, 2005: Dear ZL, I believe that the camera is mine. I lost it over board while in the Fernando de Noronha Archipelago in Brazil. The second Photo was taken at Percé in the Gaspé with Rocher Percé on the left and Bonaventure Island in the background. The camera is digital and yellow in colour. That prooves that it is mine. Thank you for your understanding. Jul 17, 2005: THE REASON I WAS INTERESTED IN NAMES BECAUSE IT TAKES THE LOST FEELING I GOT WHEN I WATCHED THE MOVIE ABOUT HORSES ON SABLE ISLAND.nAMING THEM MAKES IT FEEL LIKE SOMEONE CARES ABOUT THEM. Jul 14, 2005: the pictures are extraordinary...how does one join the society, and will there be tours in the future...i am an award winning nyc photographer and just heard about the island...kindly send info, though i am aware its not open to ordinary 'tourists' thank you. Jul 11, 2005: My compliments to all dedicated to this unique presentation. You really have captured the essence to many of the facets of Sable. I most enjoyed the photos and stories in the "Notes" section. Jul 11, 2005: What a fascinating site! Thank you for this wonderful information. I saw the movie, "Touching Wild Horses" and it inspired me to investigate the island. I live in the Indiana Dunes and felt that I knew Sable Island just a little from the obvious comparisons. We don't have wild horses, just some wild people who leave litter and broken glass behind } - ;The site works very well and the information flows smoothly. I sent it to my friends. I feel almost as though I have been there. I could feel that wind-blown sand in my face, and I could feel the heat from the hot sand from those fabulous pictures. In total honesty, this is one of the best sites I have ever examined. Good job and thank you. Jul 07, 2005: Very interesting site ! Hpe qso and gl. 73 de F9OE Jul 05, 2005: you are so dumb Jun 30, 2005: I was in a library yesterday and came across a book called Sable Island, I couldn't help to pick it up. The book cover had the most magnificent and dignified black horse on it. I loaned the book and started reading it the same day. I never even heard of Sand Island before seeing the book. It facinated me and the horses left my heart and soul in awe. I was astounded by the horses beauty and adaptation to the islands environment. I hope these animals are always protected from man, they have certainly earned their freedom and their right to live freely, unmolested by man. Reading their story has rekindled alittle more of my faith in humankind. It has been my experience and observation that humanity lacks wisdom and doesn't see the spiritual value of the earth and it's non-human species of animals; only it's monetary value. Thank you, for allowing the horses to live free, especailly in a time when all mankinds freedoms are slowly dissappearring! Jun 29, 2005: Hello, I have just gone through your site,
its beautiful! I have always been interested in Sable island so mysterious
but yet beautiful. Now I was wondering if you knew anything about
volunteering with research projects if you could do that at all. Probably
not, just curious and again Jun 27, 2005: Thank you so much for all the material in your web pages. All was very interesting and informative. Fight as hard as possible to keep the island alive with reserch. Thanks again. Yarmouth Nova Scotia. Jun 23, 2005: a happy summer to all - just a little hello - i have a lovely poster and thought a little more information would be most interesting - we have kins and cousins in lunenburg and halifax and pubnico. Jun 14, 2005: You are wondering why people are so interested in the horse's names. My interest is picking a name for a male Shetland Sheepdog puppy who has a little island of brown right in the middle of his big white collar. We are going to register him as Macbarra Sable Island, so was looking for some type of place name to use as a fitting call/everyday name. Your site is excellent. Kingston, Ontario Jun 10, 2005: Photo's 5 6 and 7 from Bowdoin Notes do not correspond to the text printed below. Always enjoy new information.Thanks. :-) Jun 09, 2005: I am so impressed with this amazing work you have done. What a legacy! I know I just said it - but you are to be commended for this exceptional treasure of information. Love the foaling sequence. Jun 07, 2005: omg that was so cool i always wanted to c what sable island was like and here it was rite infront of me!!! IT WAS SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO COOL!!!! Jun 07, 2005: Thanks for your great website and all the info.re: beautiful Sable Island. We would love to visit this special, super-natural location and truly hope that the funds will become available to keep the Station up and running for future research projects and to continue the preservation of this wild and beautiful island. So many places have been ravaged by man's intervention and greed, it would be nice to see the government getting behind a truly worthy project and not just wasting money on other things as they continue to do so in many instances. My dreams continue to visit Sable Island, the horses, the seals and the breath-taking views. Best wishes from the Canadian Prairies. May 30, 2005: Your site substantially helped me write an essay for an air pollution class on tropospheric ozone. Thanks a bunch. May 29, 2005: cool i can now finish my project! o.m.f.g. May 20, 2005: You did very well on the site. The foals pictures are so cute!! I have one question... Why are the horses not afraid of humans? May 19, 2005: Hi Zoe, I loved hearing your talk about Sable Island. It is a big secret for the most part. I learned so much from you and what is all about and how important it is to keep it open as a research site with those 5 technical people there. Your photos are truly beautiful. It is great that you are there. I'm sure you are making a difference for this island. I have fwded your site on to my friend, who is majoring in ecology and environmental issues & is a webdesigner in Bangladesh. He may contact you after viewing your site. I may comment more later after viewing your site, but I just wanted to say hi and thankyou for your presentation. May 08, 2005: I just finished watching the movie "Touching Wild Horses", about the Sable Island horses. Until now I didn't know anything about the Island or its residents. You asked why the particular interest in the names of the horses...I have horses of my own, the names speak to their personalities and give them an individual identity. It's the same with these horses. I sincerely hope you are able to protect these animals and their habitat. There are so few places left where horses are able to live free and flourish like this. I live in Southern California and these horses would probably like our weather better, but we're being slowly pushed out with no room for our horses to roam as God intended. I wish you luck in your endeavor. May 07, 2005: I have always loved animals and,of course, have a few favourites, including horses. And being a maritimer (N.B.) I have a special place in my heart for Sable Island and its wildlife. I have absolutely enjoyed your website, and the information - obviously done with great care and appreciation for the island. I do hope the government will continue to play a role and be thoughtful and intelligent enough to take care of the island and the horses for always. May 07, 2005: Greetings! Your excellent web site is a great
resource about Sable Island and its wild horses. I am a wild horse advocate
in the US, among those here who feel that wild horses should be preserved
and protected, but managed in-the-wild with minimal human interference. I
watched the movie "Touching Wild Horses" last night -- and that's where I
learned about Sable Island. I am thrilled to learn that much of what
impressed me in the film is based on truths about how Sable Island horses
are managed, or rather NOT managed. I toured your photo gallery and enjoyed
learning about wild horse community life: what they eat, how they find
water, and what their life is like in this natural environment. Apr 28, 2005: I really lilked the site...I liked what Krista had to say about Acadian comming up to her and nuzzling her neck...that is a most memorable expirence and she sould be proud that she was the one to expirence...its not every day that you can come that close to a wild horse...I love horses. and I hope to one day expirence somethign like that for my self. Apr 21, 2005: Sitting here in Edmonton AB, moved from Hantsport NS; typed in sable island not expecting this cool site.I've always enjoyed info. on the sea and tides.Is there much of a rise/fall in the tide change? During high winds/hurricanes, do waves break close to shore or out farther? Being the "graveyard of the atlantic", is there any ghost stories you've come across? Very nice site!!! thanx. Apr 17, 2005: Simply "googling" "Sable Island" brought meto
this delightful site. All the information I could have asked for was here in
an easy to navigate and friendly layout. VERY informative, and interesting.
Apr 16, 2005: Since I was a young child and read the story The Pit Pony, I've always wanted to see the sable island horses... I have loved horses since I was a child ... and would do anything to be around horses. I believe people are interested in the names of horses cause it makes it more personal... I was reading the Canadian Geographic's story of the Chilcoltin Horses... and the fact they are called feral and not wild so they don't get protection from the government. I find that idea very pompous and a way out for not having to take a stand. I appreciate all the hard work that has gone into the website. I would have loved to have been one of the people doing the research on the Sable Island Horses. A true Raw beauty to be sure. Qualicum Beach, BC Apr 14, 2005: I just discovered your site after finding the address in the NC magazine. This is a beautiful site. I am amazed at the number of bird species that reach the island. It's so sad to see most of them battered and starving after beeing caught in the storms. It gives us an idea of the number that never finds a place to land. I have not had the time yet to read all on the horses, have you set any type of shelter or wall to provide a protection from the winter winds? Please keep up your good work, this island badly needs protection, not exploitation. Chicoutimi Apr 14, 2005: I am an italian radioamateur and in 2003 I contacted a canadian DXspedition transmitting from Sable Island. By means of Internet I found and ''visited'' this island and I am surprised to see so wonderful green grass in sommer so many horses and to know that once was a team of sailors to rescue wrek ships. All the best. Apr 13, 2005: great information ...actually looking up info. for my grade 4 son who is doing a project on sable island and its horses. My interest has been spurred by this site. I noted interestingly Dr. PY Daoust involvment in the seal research. I had an oppotunity to work with him myself as a student at the Atlantic Vet. College. Also noted is Joyce Barkhouse...her story is fascinating itself...inerestingly she spends her summer months not far from where I grew up...so all kinds of connections... Thanks… Sydney NS. Apr 05, 2005: Hello, I've just logged on to your site from
a grade 4/5 classroom. My students are going to do a study of the habitat of
Sable Island. This site appears to be a wonderful place to begin. Thanks! Mar 30, 2005: Hi Zoe! Glad to find your web page. I was out to Sable in the summer of 1996 and had 2 fellows join me later. We conducted a ham radio expedition, (those crazy radio guys with all the antennas.). The trip will live in my memory forever. Even though a lot of my time was spent in the triplex, the times spent visiting with you, Gerry, and the Island are very memorable. I wish you well in your endeavours and hope to someday make it back. New Brunswick. Mar 27, 2005: I just wanted to say thank you for you web site. I just watched a movie called Touching wild horses. I didn't know when I watched it that it was a real place till I watched the interviews with the write. I have been in love with horses all my life. I love the fact that there are places like these where horse can still run free. I leave in North Caroling where we have a place like that here. I would like to say thank you for protecting the horse. I think there is a great web site and put together great. I will revisite this sight often. So will my daughter!! Thank you again for all of your work. I look forward to hearing more about Sable Island. Jan 20, 2005: Thank you for this wonderful website, which I have only begun to explore. The photographs are superb, particularly the many pictures of the horses doing all of their horsey things amid the glorious marine and island vistas. I have just finished reading the de Villiers and Hirtle book, Sable Island, and was especially interested in reading about you, Zoe, and the many years you have devoted to this beautiful, unique place. I look forward to learning more about the island, its animals and plants, and the stewardship challenges it is facing. Cape Cod, MA Jan 19, 2005: Wow! I just saw your "Morning Glory" page,
and I'm reminded of my 1st year in the US Air Force at Wichita Falls, TX in
1966. I was out riding my motorcycle in the countryside late at night,
between 10 and 12 O’clock (a summer night). I saw this extremely linear
cloud coming toward me at an amazingly fast clip and seemingly only a few
hundred feet above the ground, extending from horizon to horizon (oriented
North - South, traveling West to East). It seemed as though some colossal
giant was holding Jan 11, 2005: I saw your website in "Seaworthy" *The Boat U.S. Marine Insurance and Damage Avoidance Report*. I'm glad I did! Your website is very informative and well organized and loaded with interesting historical facts. And a doff of the cap to the photographers who supplied the wonderful photographs. Does the SIGHS fund the station and the research activities? If not, then who does? Who funds the SIGHS? If these questions were answared on the website I must have missed it. |
