Embedded firmly in the history of the Space Coast are two very disparate creatures: cows and sea turtles. Long before the rockets’ red glare, cattle were an important part of the area’s culture and economy. As for the sea turtles, they’ve been nesting on our beaches since well before the indigenous Ais were busy harvesting shellfish from the Indian River Lagoon.
The scene is bucolic, timeless. As the morning mist lifts, cowboys on horseback with dogs at their sides weave their way among a herd of cattle.
