Friesian horses
The West Frisian is one of the oldest breeds in Europe. Originally from Holland, is famous for its distinctive black horse and his coat still thick wavy hair often.
Strong horse, powerful and tireless, was used in the past, especially during the Middle Ages, as warhorse and today is especially popular in dressage, in the attacks and in horse shows. There are two types of races: Baroque stronger and lighter than the modern.
Tarpan horses
The tarpan, was a Eurasian wild horse.
The last specimen of this species died in captivity in Ukraine 1918 or 1919.
The Polish farmers often crossed the Tarpan with their domestic horses. The result was a small breed of horse, provincial conical.
Some animals, as konik, and also Sorraia, protected in Portugal, are being used to recreate the Tarpan, and to fill the niche remained vacant since their extinction in the wild. The pony Huçul, living in the Carpathians, is certainly the most direct descendant of the Tarpan.
Horses Mangalarga
Il Mangalarga, is the generic name for the two races Mangalarga Marchador Mangalarga Paulista and the Brazilian horse.
Were created by Gabriel Francisco Junqueira, Baron Alfenas, Alter Real horses with breeding stallions crossed themselves with the Portuguese colonial horses in Brazil. These crosses originated first race Mangalarga Marchador.
When the family moved to Sao Paulo Junqueira, sites and local culture led her to look for a horse with different characteristics and thus began to cross the Mangalarga Marchador with other races : Hackney, morgan, American Saddlebred, Hannover e Trakehner. This led to a completely different breed from the original Mangalarga Marchador: Paulista appunto il Mangalarga.
Arabian horses
The Arabian horse is one of the breeds of the oldest and used.
Its origin dates back to 3000 aC, but only from the sixth century. DC. we began to practice selective breeding as it goes nowadays.
In our day we know three main types:
- Bedouin Arabic represents the original type and is in turn divided into three subtypes: kuhailan, strong and powerful; siglavy, beautiful and elegant; muniqi, lightweight and fast.
- Arabic purebred is the descendant of the three mentioned types, and that's what we know as the Arab (spread all over the world).
- the Arab race including horses of Eastern blood, while respecting the morphology and the type Arabic character, have in their family tree relationships with the Berber, with Arabic and Persian with the Syrian.
Maremma horses
The Maremma the horse is native to the Maremma, vast area that stretches near the Tyrrhenian coast of southern Tuscany and northern Lazio.
Its origin could be traced back to when the Celts over the Alps and their horses Germans met the equine population of Eastern and African blood who were already living on the Italian territory: incrociandosi, these horses would produce the Maremma. Almost two thousand years later, in Renaissance, Lorenzo’ Doctors in Tuscany introduced its junction with the Arab and the race was divided into two types: the Tuscan and Lazio who had been closest to the initial type.
Horses bred Horse of the Jar
The Horse of the Jar (Equus caballus Giarae) the horse is a subspecies endemic to Sardinia, confined in the Plateau of Clara.
The origin of this horse is uncertain, some argue that descended from horses imported from the African Phoenician and Greek sailors in the V-IV century BC. According to others, had already been domesticated by the people nuragiche a millennium ago and would be a descendant of the wild horse in Sardinia since Neolithic times and whose fossils have been found 6000 AC. about.
The horse was released in the wild in Sardinia at least until the Late Middle Ages and is now found only in the Plateau of Clara, which takes its name, about 700 specimens. The characteristics of the plateau, with altitude ranging from 500 to 600 meters above sea level and the steep walls have been completely isolated flocks ensuring the conservation of typical of the breed.
Some specimens are also on Monte Arci, in the natural reserve of Capo Caccia in Alghero and Forest Burgos. The horses of the jar until the fifties were used for threshing grain in Sardinia before they were supplanted by mechanical harvesters.
They have a coat of color generally uniform wild bay, morello or burnt chestnut. They are characterized by a square head, with conspicuous tuft like mane and a strong neck. The withers are just given, the croup is short and tilted the tail is low. Eyes, slightly slanted. Low, narrow chest. The limbs are thin. The average height at the withers is approximately 120 cm, not a pony, but a horse of small size.
The horses are animals of Clara indomitable character and restless.
The horses of the jar live in stable family groups consisting of a male dominated and one to eight females. Each core has a territory of its own territory which may sometimes overlap partially with that of neighboring groups. Foals, as soon as they reach childbearing age are expelled from the herd. For the stallion instead reached 15 – 20 years is supplanted by a younger and will join a group of males only.
Despite the limited spread of the horse Clara not in the list of species protected by the LR. 29 July 1998, n.23. It is not considered endangered.
American Standardbred race horses
