Jack,

Everyone in Nevada’s Virginia Range has a Two Socks story.



Two Socks is more than just a wild stallion. He’s part of the legacy left by Wild Horse Annie, the legendary advocate whose tireless work helped protect these very horses decades ago. Two Socks’ story reflects the deep bonds, fierce loyalty, and generational strength that define them.

For years, Two Socks roamed with his companion, affectionately called “Grandpa,” who helped him defend his band. Even one of his mares, nicknamed “Meany Momma,” joined the fight when needed. Together, they protected a family that remained united for more than a decade.

Now older, Two Socks has passed leadership to his lieutenant, Trident, the son of Pinkie, and Bodie Braveheart. In a twist of fate, Bodie was once Two Socks’ rival, their battles more about strength and respect than harm.



Today, Two Socks is a bachelor again. But recently, his son Randal spotted him across a field. The two reunited briefly, playfully wrestling before going their separate ways.

Stories like this remind us that these are not just horses, they’re living history. Wild Horse Annie’s horses still roam the Virginia Range. And it’s up to us to keep them wild.

That’s why our team is on the ground every day, implementing a humane fertility control program to keep horses like Two Socks and his family on the range where they belong. It’s a proven, cost-effective solution that ensures these stories continue for generations to come.
