Meet The Stunning And Endangered 'Black Forest' Horses Of Germany

All horses are beautiful in my opinion. But there are some that are unique and catch your eye and hold your grasp. The Black Forest Horse of Germany is certainly one of these horse breeds that you cannot resist admiring. It's characterized by a dense golden mane that pops against the rich chestnut color of their coat. Be prepared to fall in love with this light draft breed that's evolved over centuries in the Black Forest of southwest Germany.

Many people are devoted to increasing the breed's population so that it will never become extinct. According to TheEquinest.com, in 1896, a German group was created to conserve and maintain this rare breed of horse. This gorgeous breed was regulated and documented by the organization, which stipulated that only Belgian draft blood may be used in breeding to improve the horse's size.
