Spirit isn’t only one of animation’s most beloved horses — there is a real mustang behind the character, and he has now turned 31 years old.

The real Spirit is a Kiger Mustang stallion originally named Donner. Chosen while still young, his powerful build, wide-set eyes, flowing mane and unmistakable personality made him the perfect living model for the hero of the 2002 film *Spirit: Stallion of the Cimarron*.

Animators carefully studied his appearance and natural movements, using what they observed to help create a character who could express courage, curiosity, defiance and tenderness without speaking a single word.

After the film was completed, Spirit moved to a wild horse sanctuary, where he became an ambassador for America’s mustangs. More than two decades after his animated counterpart galloped onto cinema screens, the real horse continues to live under the dedicated care of those protecting him.

At 31, Spirit remains a beautiful living connection to a film that taught an entire generation about freedom, friendship and a heart that could never be broken. ❤️🐴

🌎🐴 Horse welfare standards vary around the world, but they all share a common goal: supporting the physical health, mental well-being, and natural behaviors of horses.

Some countries have regulations around turnout time, social interaction, transportation, feeding practices, air quality, stable lighting, and even whether whiskers can be trimmed. These guidelines are designed to help improve equine welfare and encourage evidence-based management practices across the industry.

To help make this information more accessible, we created the Global Horse Welfare Database, a free resource that compiles equine welfare laws, regulations, and recommendations from countries around the world.

The database allows horse owners, caretakers, veterinarians, coaches, and industry professionals to explore how different regions approach a number of topics.

Welfare science continues to evolve, and understanding global standards can help spark important conversations about best practices in horse care and management.

Our latest arrival, Marvelous, who returned last week after being adopted 10 years ago, joined his new herd with Akira, Stardust, and Miakoda this morning. We have been letting Marv get acquainted with his new friends over their stall walls this past week. This morning he was allowed to explore his new pasture and gradually added the other horses one by one starting with the most dominant. For now it seems Marv has chosen the old gray gelding, Akira, to be his companion.
