Abstract:
The ponies on Ocracoke have been around for centuries. Some myths which have evolved around them say no one knows where they came from; the animals are wild; the animals are ponies; and the horses are unique to Ocracoke. Bragdon explores some of the more popular myths, such as these, and some 20th-century facts.
