Also known as Bagazan, Baguezzan and Kinaboutout, the Bagzan horse is a light saddle horse which comes from their namesake Bagzane Mountains in Niger. While they don’t appear to be an official breed, they are usually considered a strain of the Arewa<\/a> with notable Arabian<\/a> influence. This breed is deeply ingrained in the mythology of the nomadic Tuareg people who keep them, although some oral traditions say their foundation studs were from out of the area, but they were always bred to local mares. The Bagzan is given legendary status among their people and are valuable mounts, which are given burial rites when they die. <\/p>\n Average height 13.8 hands <\/p>\n Head is short and square with a broad forehead Generally grey<\/a> or black<\/a> but can also be found in other colors<\/a><\/p>\n Hardy and energetic<\/p>\n Riding
