In the town of Chincoteague, on Virginia's Eastern Shore, seafood and horses are as important as the family car. The 4,000 residents on the island rely on both for tourism and commercial interests. The wild horses attract many visitors to the community during the warm months, but it is the seafood industry in this town that continues to generate jobs and money throughout the year.
