Meet the Mustang: Trident, a Nevada Stallion

Trident, a remarkable Nevada stallion, was born in the summer of 2015 in the Virginia Range. His early life was marked by the presence of his sire, Bodie Braveheart, and his dam, Pinkie. With a distinctive triangle star on his forehead, Trident grew up surrounded by his family, including siblings Spats, Sandra, Rapunzel, and Steener.

As Trident matured, he became a bachelor, often seen roaming the range alone. His journey took a turn when he became the Lieutenant for Two Socks, a role that involved protecting the band. This was a poignant development, as Trident's sire and Two Socks were once rivals.

Recently, Trident showcased his strength in a battle against Stockton, who attempted to take over Two Socks' band. Trident emerged victorious, reaffirming his position as a powerful stallion.

During a snowstorm, Trident reclaimed Two Socks' band from Stockton, solidifying his leadership. The future remains uncertain as to whether Two Socks will rejoin the band or if Trident will continue as the sole leader.

Trident's journey from a foal to a band stallion has been extraordinary, and his story continues to captivate those who follow the lives of Nevada's wild mustangs.
