The very last Tarpan passed away in a Ukrainian game preserve at Askania Nova in 1876. A primitive kind of wild horse, which once roamed from Southern France and Spain eastwards to central Russia, the Tarpan become extinct within the wild during the late 1800s. Causes of its extinquishing would be the wreckage of its forest and steppe environment to create room for humans; hunting by farmers saying their crops were being eaten and mares stolen; also assimilation inside a growing domestic horse populace. There have been numerous tries to replicate the Tarpan through re-breeding, producing horses that in fact look like their vanished forebears.

Horse Best Animal Wallpaper
Horses physiology permits them to make full use of velocity to escape predators and they've got a well-developed sense of balance and a good fight-or-flight intuition. Connected with this need to run away from predators in the wild is a peculiar characteristic: horses have the ability to sleep both standing up and laying. Female horses, called mares, carry their young for about 11 months, and a young horse, termed as a foal, can stand up and run soon after its birth. Most domesticated horses commence training under saddle or in harness in between the ages of two and four. They reach full adult growth by the age five, and have almost lifespan of between 25 and 30 years.
Quarter Horse
Quarter HorseThe principle development of the Quarter Horse was in the southwestern part of the United States in Texas, Oklahoma, New Mexico, eastern Colorado, and Kansas. Some breed historians have maintained that it is the oldest breed of horses in the United States and that the true beginning of the Quarter Horse was in the Carolinas and Virginia. Nye1 has suggested that the Chickasaws secured from the Indians were the true beginning of the Quarter Horse. These were small blocky horses, probably of Spanish extraction, which the planters secured from the Indians, and which were adapted for a variety of uses. The colonists were quite interested in short races, and it was only natural that they should have attempted to increase the speed of their horses; to this end some of the best early Thoroughbreds that were brought to the United States included the horse Janus, brought to the United States before the English Stud Book was established, were instrumental in the improvement of these local running horse. Later Imp. Sir Archy and other Thoroughbred stallions were used.
