The Real Horse Whisperer

Buck Brannaman's ability to communicate with horses is a wonder to behold, a gift on fascinating display in the documentary Buck. If you haven't heard of him, he's the cowboy who inspired the book and movie The Horse Whisperer.  And how he came to develop his empathy for animals -- after a childhood of physical and emotional brutality -- is deeply inspiring. Buck gave us a demonstration of how he calms a high-strung horse for this piece that aired on CNN in 2011. Kareen Wynter is the reporter.
