- Posavina Horse - |
|||
 The Posavina Horse developed in Croatia, by the flood plains of the Sava River. Its breeding background includes the Arabian, Spanish, Italian, Nonius, and Liptsa horses. They can be black, bay, or grey, and stand about 15.2 hh. They are characterized by their noble heads and broad, concave, ecliptic ears. They were used for pulling and for managing the vegetation....basically, they were used as lawnmowers!! They are very resistant to diseases of various kinds, and they are used to living in harsh conditions. They have broad, flat hooves that are very strong and good for grazing on the flooded plains. Although these horses are not endangered, there are not very many left in existence today.
