The combined efforts of the motorists who spotted them, the Niagara OPP and the SPCA helped corral a couple of mini-ponies who had somehow stumbled onto the Toronto-bound QEW lane near Beck Road at about 8 am this morning (June 22).

Motorists who spotted the pair instantly pulled over to lead the salt-and-pepper duo back to the safety of the grassy area adjacent to the highway.

When the OPP and SPCA arrived, they were then herded into the back of a horse trailer and taken safely back to their home a kilometre away.

In a tweet, the OPP Highway Safety wryly noted: “If you leave your gate open, your children may wander off. #HappyReunion.”
