I hoisted myself up onto the sturdy wooden fence and swung my leg over. Sliding down onto the other side, I bent my knees to soften my fall and avoid spooking the monochrome mare. Still, her eyes widened when I landed inside her pen. She took off trotting in circles before finally settling down as she realized I wasn’t chasing her. Her nostrils flared as she turned into the center where I was, blowing hard as if to uncover my true intentions. Cautiously, she took a step forward, pushing her soft nose into my outstretched hand. I gently walked my hand up her head to the red twine holding her number on her neck. Slowly, I retrieved a small pocket knife from my pocket. “It’s okay, I won’t hurt you,” I reassured her. I opened the knife and sawed off the twine. It fell to the ground silently. “Your name will be Orca,” I whispered, “I think it suits you well.” As she turned her head and walked off, I bent to grab her tag, and left to go find a suitable place to display it.
