Horses' tails stolen in Natrona, Converse counties

Authorities in Converse and Natrona counties say some residents are reporting that someone has been cutting their horses' tails off in the middle of the night. Natrona County Sheriff's Lt. Mark Sellers says it isn't the first time this has happened in the area. He remembers people were cutting horse tails several years ago and using the hair to make and sell items such as jewelry, hat bands and belts. Illegally cutting horse tails is a misdemeanor and only becomes a felony if the value of the hair stolen exceeds $1,000.
