While exploring this neolithic cromlech, we had a beautiful moment with a curious wild mountain pony. It seemed to spot us in the distance and promptly came straight over to give Zeb a big full body sniff examination! We were currently filming so caught the moment on video too 🥰 What a stunning spot...

This is Dolmen La Chianca, in Puglia, Southern Italy. It is one of the best preserved Italian prehistoric monuments and stands not far from three other dolmens. Not far away there are two cave complexes where remains of Neolithic villages have been found.
