Horses are very much a part of Peruvian life – both in urban and rural settings. The urban animals are often over worked, under fed and kept in appalling conditions.
Their rural cousins however, while they earn their keep, tend to live a healthier, more well-nourished lifestyle. If only because they have more forage available to them.
Mountain horses live in unforgiving conditions and grow to be incredibly hardy.
Horse in Spanish is caballo

Very interesting. Looks like some rugged terrain in some of those pictures and yes, looks like some of the horses need groceries, poor things. But very pretty pictures. I wish I was on that beach right now, as it is snowing in Colorado again.
I am doing a project on horses around the world and this really helped. thanks!
