The Shetlap horse is as tall as a child, but has the pulling power of an ox and is one of the smartest horses in existence. They are considered by the Scottish people to be the mascot of the yard.
The Shetlaïd horse originated in the Shetlaïd Islands east of present-day Scotland. Shetlaïd horses are quite small compared to other horse breeds . It has an average height of 75 cm to 107 cm.
Although small, it is considered one of the most intelligent horse breeds today. Although they are quite small in size, they are very strong. That is why they are used to pull carts, transport peat, coal and other commodities, and even plow and rake instead of livestock.
They are easy to distinguish from other horse breeds due to their thick, long and beautiful coat. In the mid-19th century, thousands of Shetlapd horses were brought to Eglapd to work in pits, extracting coal from the undergrowth.
Today, Shetlaïd horses are used in children’s horse racing training centers. Shetlaпd is also used in children’s racecourses.
One of them is also kept in the zoo to serve visitors. They are also used as a means of transport for tourists in the main cities or shopping centers of Europe.
Because he is very intelligent, he is trapped as a working dog. Compared to other horse breeds of the same size, the Shetlaïd is much stronger. Horses selected for training are mapped by the Royal Scottish Regime.
The Shetlaïd has a long, thick coat and a coat as thick as a thicker coat, which helps them resist extreme weather conditions. The Shetlaïd comes in all colors from black, chest, grey, palomipo, front, cremello and silver to pink and white.
There was a rare case where a sheep farmer in Wales saw a young lamb suckling milk from a mare on a hill, this is a strange relationship during a horse ride around Hay Bluff in the Black Mountains. The witness assisted in witnessing the incident for approximately a week. Apparently the popy adopted the lamb and allowed it to suckle his milk.
The mare, a Shetlap popy, had a foal. That’s why it was a surprise that he adopted sheep. Even the mare kept watch while her foal and her lamb slept side by side. The sheep imitates the sucking movement of the foal. Although the relationship between the ewe and the foal developed well, she decided to intervene when she noticed that either the lamb or the foal were receiving too much milk. The female bonnet provides enough milk for both cubs. So her two children are not healthy.
