There was little prospect thirty years
ago of the discovery of genuine wild
horse There are. to be sure. the so-called
wild horses of the Americas, hut they are
the descendants of horses that the Spaniards
brought to the Western world some centuries
ago. While evidence existed that wild
horses we're probably az abundant in pre-
historic times in the south Of Europe as
zebras are to-day in British East Africa.
most naturalists believed that true wild
horses with an unhrOken line Of wild an
cestry we're extinct.
Then. in 1870, the Russian explorer
PrjevalsI<y reported that he had discovered
a new and quito distinct horse in the Cobb
Desert 10 the west of Mongolia Two
years later POliakof published description
Of the horse to which hc gave the name
Equus prjevalskii. Then the brothers Grum-
GrjimailO saw the horses in the desert and
learned many new facts about them.
The Russians were greatly interested and
il was decided to capture "a number OF the
animals and bring them to Europe. These
efforts were successful and five years ago
a herd Of about thirty Of the Prievalsky
horses. after no end Of trouble. were landed
in Europe. Most of them are still in Russia,
but a few we're taken to England, where
they are kent on the estate of the Duke of
Bedford.
The English naturalists did not make
a scientific study of the animals in that
country because the Russians have had
a most borough investigation n progress,
