No one came back for them.
Wild Livno
This is the story of the wild horses above Livno.
Their ancestors came from the villages below the mountain.
They ploughed the fields and carried the loads.
When they were not needed, they were let up the mountain. When they were needed, someone came up for them.
1970s
People from these villages went to work in Germany.
They came home and bought tractors.
The horses were not needed anymore.
No one came back for them.
In 2010, volunteers counted them. There were 167.
- 167
- 418
- about 500
- more than 1,000
In the summer of 2026, ponds on the mountain dried up.
People came up with water for the horses.
The horses belong to no one.
Today they live without fences, stables or owners.
