Spring is a time for renewal, and what better display of rebirth is there than a new foal?

A newborn colt was foaled at Ottawa’s Mādahòkì Farm and is a rare Indigenous horse breed known as the Ojibwe Spirit Horse. We wrote about the breed and Mādahòkì Farm in 2022 and how the horses were being used for reclamation, education, and celebration of indigenous cultures and traditions.
There are fewer than 200 of the Ojibwe Spirit Horses in the world today, and it’s a native breed even older than the American mustang. The rarity of the horse makes this new foal all the more exciting and precious.
