History — on the hoof
Two recently bom Przewalski’s foals explore their pasture at the Smithsonian’s National Zoo Conservation and Research Center near Front Royal. Both foals were sired by a 9-year-old stallion named Frog, the most genetically-valuable Przewalski’s horse in the North American breeding program. The dams were shipped from Europe to breed at the CRC in order to boost the endangered species’ breeding program. The Przewalski’s horse is native to China and Mongolia. They were declared extinct in the wild in 1970. Currently,^there are approximately 1,500 of these animals maintained in zoos throughout the world and in several small reintroduced populations in Asia.
