  • well - i have an email contact to Antonio Vicente from Portugal. he might know some. and also Antonio DÀndrade. send me an email.

  • @lykkebianca Why would they only sell stallions? I was thinking of starting up a preserve and know where I can acquire some stallions, but will need mare eventually

  • I know a breeder i germany that sell Sorraia horses. if anyone is interested. They do not sell mares. Only stallions.

  • @lykkebianca

    You are completely right, I´m just not sure about the 10.000 year episode...

    Some people get annoyed about facts and can´t produce any contra evidence, except their raw opinion as you are experimenting now.

    I´m on your side and Zebro Valley Refugee is another excellent opportunity to visit these wild horses on their environment.

  • What a stupid way to treat a wild horse...

  • lol! Sorraia is a horse, not a ponie!

  • Well, i guess that ur friend must have the Sorraia now, but if not, one place where he can look for is in "Coudelaria Nacional de Alter do Chão". The may horse that they breed is "Alter Real", but they have Sorraia and some Przewalski. I just dont know if they sell tha last one.

  • Who is your historical expert that states the Sorraia is an ancient breed that goes back 10,000 years? Please tell me you have someone that uses something other than color and poorly drawn cave paintings that look more like the Mongolian wild horse to prove their point.

  • ummm it isnt mDNA it is mT DNA. The mt part stands for mitochondria. It is how the cell produces energy and is ONLY passed down on the mare line. You can have a 99% Draft horse that has an Iberian mtDNA pattern if it is a solid female line bred to Draft studs. mtDNA does not prove anything. You need to speak with Dr. Cothran of Texas A & M. Also you should tell the experts that I got my historical data from that they have a lot to learn from their own field of study.

  • in a pasture near my home there is one sorraia foal!
