Equus ferus przewalskii

Przewalski horse’s description

Stocky and steady, I am a wild horse : Man never domesticated me ! Though, I live by his side since several millennia. The drawings on the prehistoric caves’ walls picture my ancesters !

2,000

About
2 meters

Size

Up to 300 kilos

Where do I live ?

I gallop across the steppes of oriental Russia, Mongolia and Kazakhstan.

Which threats ?

When occidentals discovered me, I was the aim of repeted hunts and my young foals were captured to be exposed in zoos. Nowadays, the coexistence with domestic horses could lead to the loss of my genetic patrimony.
