The annual round up of the wild ponies from Chincoteague National Wildlife Refuge on Assateague Island on Virginia's Eastern Shore has captured the hearts and minds of visitors since 1925. Made famous by Marguerite Henry’s book, Misty of Chincoteague, hundreds of spectators watch as the Saltwater Cowboys (volunteer firemen) round up the ponies on Assateague Island and swim them across the channel to Chincoteague Island where they rest before being paraded down Main Street to the carnival grounds to be auctioned.
