Shackelford's Banks Ponies of North Carolina Coast
The long sand banks along North Carolina's eastern boundary host the wild ponies known as Shackelford's banks bankers. About 1,200 ponies, 13 to 14 hands tall, live on the banks feeding on marsh grass and leaves, with some swimming to the mainland during storms. They are owned by local individuals who brand and pen them, and their ancestors trace to Barbary horses sent by Sir Walter Raleigh.
