Horses on Kauai

On Kauai, horses were a utilitarian necessity and part of the island’s rural and royal heritage contributing to the sustainable aspect of each plantation community. The first horses sent to the King of Hawaii became cow ponies, did plantation work, plowed fields, played polo, pranced in parades, raced on race tracks and were incorporated into hula.
