We saw these Navajo ponies near Canyon de Chelly on one of our visits there. It was nearing sunset and they were up on a plateau heading somewhere. You can barely see their silhouettes against the orange sunset. Somebody asked me if they are wild or not. This herd was. The stallion was very wary of us and moved his herd away. We have seen others loose that were branded, so I really don't know. One time we came upon a mother and foal and the foal was very friendly! We left some water out for them that summer as it was very hot and dry! The mare drank it all! The foal nearly climbed into our rented van!!! So, I really can't answer that question!
