In reply to Dave S.. Finally! Someone else who knows what the Abaco Barb are! It drives me nuts that they aren't recognized enough! There is only one left now but they still haven't made onto many "rarest horse breed" lists!

In Peru, there is two breeds in risk of extintion: Caballo Morochuco y Caballo Morochuco Chumbivilcano. Both relate with an old equestrian culture from the Andes, so adaptated to altitude over 4,000 meters above sea level and able to take advantage of poor forage…

The extinction of certain breeds of horses is unfortunately “our” fault.
Breeds of horses come in to and out of favor all the time, you can see this by just looking at the numbers (example: over 6 million Quarter Horses). A lot of breeds get passed by simply because they never were in favor. Some breeds
like the Abacco Barb were never noticed by horse people (and in their case) they are the most endangered of all breeds <—-this breed will be the first to leave us (simply because we took "notice" far to late to save them). The bigger reason for breed extinction is "US" we look at and favor the breeds we know about and pass by the horses that don't appeal to us. There extinction is a fact that can't be denied, and it's all because of popularity.

Mustangs are so pretty! They’re the story of the west and are now parasites to farmers, the history of the west is fading with the mustangs.

In reply to Robert Rio. Not that I know of yet. I am still trying to connect with other breeders myself. Heidi Bemis and her partners have some beautifull stock in Florida. They may can offer AI if you ask them. There are other breeders here in Texas, I just don't know them. We have one stallion ourselves and may one day also offer AI after we resolve our registry problems.
