They have tried to selectively breed walers back using the main bloodlines from the horses they would have had then…..the aussie stock horse is similar to the waler though

The Waler was used in the first wold war its name came from the state it came from NSW. Most of them were shot and didn’t return after the war :(. So realy we don’t have “our” horse.

Hi Barbara,

Thanks for your comment, it’s always fun to learn more about horses local to each area. 🙂

Australia has its own breed of horse called a “Waler”, it was almost extinct but for a few which now have been brought back from the brink.

Hi Cheval Noir,

You’d think I’d seen The Man From Snowy River enough times to make sure I had that right! Thanks for the correction, it has been fixed. 🙂
