The wild horses in the Φαρμακοβούνι Filiates and the mountains of Souli, an integral part of nature.

Until about 30-40 years horses and mules were necessary for the farming operations… it Changed my life, changed society, for better or for worse, this is for discussion, and useful quadrupeds have been abandoned by their owners freely in the hills. So in Φαρμακοβούνι Filiates and in the mountains of Souli.
From this, arose the wild horses, who live today in the mountains these tumors and are second and third generation. Born in the mountain, under conditions of difficult survival, it is “ξεπετάλωτα” and survive almost αυτοσυντηρούμενα. The researcher Leonidas Tzanis wrote about the horses in the Φαρμακοβουνίου Filiates: “When I stood in Λυκορράχη (1240μ) and the Σελόκαστρο (1,150 m) and when I approached my heart skipped a beat. I had heard of Free Horses in Φαρμοκοβούνι but I didn’t expect to meet them. It was there on the western slopes of the mountain. It is Freedom itself… did you see the moves, the look, the shake of the head. Galloping with them, sound is the neigh of a small colt, the strike of hooves on stone steep slopes. Freedom is these wonderful creatures. Freedom that won withstanding the rigors of the mountain, to the attacks of the wolves.
Freedom that no man should take it away from… yes, approaching passed through my mind ways to help them, but I finally realized the mistake we can make. And in good faith can interfere with the man for “protection”, it will automatically deprive them of what they enjoy up there. They may become prey of the predators of the wild animals, the hunger to decimate….but that will do will do will end up… will have lived freely”. Also of special interest are the wild horses in the mountains of Souli, who belong to the race of Pindos. So this has been catered for, since at various points, mainly in the area of Lakka Souli, were placed troughs and ταϊστρες.
