Chincoteague pony and Caribbean Colonial horse DNA

 Salvete Omnes,

a short entry - links really - but worth exploring I am certain of it. 



some 3 years ago they published this article -  link Analysis of the earliest complete mtDNA genome of a Caribbean colonial horse (Equus caballus) from 16th-century Haiti, Nicolas Delsol et la. 



Chincoteague Pony came up in this research, as well as the Spanish Andalucia and even Central Asia. 



You can always read the famous American novel - The Misty of Chincoteague


especially the one illustrated by Wesley Dennis.

more ponies





enjoy
