| Przewalski's Horse Qualities | A horse with a stand out name, the Przewalski’s Horse is one wild animal.

They enjoy grazing and going through piles, the males have a habit of marking their own territory with urine as well. | Przewalski's Horse Appearance | One characteristic of the Przewalski’s horse is that they bode more chromosomes than the others. For example, they are born with sixty six while other breeds are born with sixty four. They are mostly known to be bred with a yellow dun coat and unique zebra like striping on their legs. Also, they bode a very thick neck compared to others and short hairs on the tail versus the more common long and frayed horse tail. They are a much thicker and more solid appearing animal over most other common breeds in this area. Their manes are usually trimmed neatly and not kept long. | Przewalski's Horse Upkeep | The Przewalski’s horse is a simple animal to maintain. They are generally kept out in the wild, which makes for very little owners aiming to domesticate them worldwide. For those that do wish to own them, they have strong tempers and will become aggressive when they feel it is necessary.

Appropriately named after the man that founded the breed roaming, Colonel Nicolai Mikhailovitch Przewalski, in the eighteen hundreds somewhere in the Gobi desert. Nicolai was a very famous geographer and explorer during this era. Some paintings dating clear back virtually twenty thousand years in Europe have images that experts believe to be quite similar to Przewalski’s horse. These horses today can be found mostly in parts of Russia, China, Mongolia, and Ulan Bator. Historians have stated that this particular breed has not been seen in China in over fifty years. Those interested in reclaiming this breed of horse are beginning to do so in lands in the Ukraine, Asia, the Netherlands, and back where they all routed from, Mongolia. | Przewalski's Horse Photos Przewalski's Horse Videos |
