As shared via Disney’s Animals, Science and Environment Facebook page: “We can hardly rein in our excitement as we introduce our new male Shetland pony Patches to the Tri-Circle D Ranch family! Born to mom Fancy, Patches loves to horse around in the sunshine with her. Patches will start spending more time near Guests at the Ranch in the days ahead, so keep your eyes peeled on your next visit to see if you can spot him!
