Shannon County

Many are choosing a lifestyle now that I cannot comprehend. A woman who is adventuring while living in her car just had an encounter with one of the wildest things you can see in Missouri - a wild horse herd.

Many don't know about this out-of-the-way spring in Missouri that you must hike to or float to for access.

Over two years ago, unidentified female remains were found near US Highway 60, west of Winona, Missouri, in Shannon County. Now, a Missouri man has been arrested and charged with first-degree murder and stealing in connection with those remains.

I would argue that there are few moments in Missouri that can compare to this. A brand new video share from a camper in Missouri reveals the moment when she realized that their campground was suddenly full of a wild horse herd.

There are officially no mountain lions in Missouri, but there is a photo that proved one of these big cats really did take down an elk this month and I can prove it.

There are many that believe mountain lions rarely make an appearance in Missouri. Perhaps they should be aware that authorities in the state have confirmed that one of these big cats just killed an adult elk this week.

There was a time when Missouri was truly wild. The wild horses of Shannon County are one of the last vestiges of that. There's new video showing the Rocky Creek herd from that region who still run free to this day.

If you go hiking in Missouri, you can expect to run into all kinds of wildlife. Deer, raccoons, snakes if you're unlucky and if you're this Missouri hiker, a herd of wild horses.

There is one part of Missouri that seems to be hidden away from the advancement of time and technology and that's a good thing. It's the heavily forested Shannon County, Missouri where wild horses still run free and you can still witness them today.

I was born and raised (and some say educated) in Missouri. However, I did not know there are wild horse in the state. Did you?
