A horse's keen sense of smell will always give you the first warning. 🐻
Our Dad, Clark Kelley Price, loves to paint some of the high-stakes moments that real cowboys face when out on the range alone. His painting "Scent of a Grizzly," drops you right into one of the most undesirable situations a rider can find themselves in.
The duties of the ranch have required this cowboy to return to the cow camp long after dark. To get there, he must navigate his mount through a thick, timbered area by moonlight—a stretch of country known to be heavily frequented by Grizzly bears.
In the pitch black, human eyes are useless. But right at this exact second, the horse freezes. Its ears pin forward, its muscles tense, and its nose catches the distinct scent carried on the night breeze. You don't see the bear, but the horse knows exactly what is waiting out there in the shadows.
It's a masterpiece of subtle, psychological suspense, captured with dad's signature dedication to authentic Western detail. Anyone ever had their own experience like this!? Let us know in the comments below. 👇
