Fire Fly is a darling mustang filly. Fire Fly was born in the Litchfield BLM pens in the summer of 2017 after her mother, Estrella, was rounded up from the Devil’s Garden herd.
In late October of 2017, a devoted supporter called to inform the staff at Redwings that there were some Mustangs from the Devil’s Garden Herd in Northern California that were in desperate need of homes. These mustangs were all mares with young foals, and with winter fast approaching, the local supporters were working hard to find homes for the pairs. Redwings acted immediately and agreed to take some of the mares and foals. The mustang advocate graciously offered to pay for 30 days of gentling with a trainer who specializes in gentling mustangs, as well as their board, during their stay with the trainer.
Finally, in late January, the mustangs were ready for their journey to the sanctuary. The staff worked with Fire Fly every day after her arrival. Fire Fly leads, stands for the farrier, and had her first bath. Fire Fly has a very friendly and inquisitive personality and is extremely smart. She is now happily adopted.
