Long ago ponies roamed free on Ocracoke Island. It is not clear where they came from, but we can try to figure it out. They could have landed here after surviving a shipwreck. Perhaps the pirates brought them here to help them with work, travel around the town, and carrying their things.
Because so many people visit the island they have had to pen the ponies so they can be safe from the cars. The ponies are cared for by the National Park Service rangers.
Aren't the ponies beautiful?
