American Cream draft horses are cream in color with white points and are smaller in size than most other draft breeds. The breed is very rare, numbering about one hundred animals, all in the U.S. (This breed is not to be confused with the American Albino or American Creme, neither of which are draft horse breeds.) For information, contact the American Cream Draft Horse Association, R.R. 1, Box 30, Charles City, IA 50616. Exmoor ponies – The Exmoor pony gets its name from the Exmoor region in southwest England, where it originated. This breed is one of the most ancient equines, documented by archaeological records of 60,000 years ago. The Exmoor was shaped almost entirely by natural selection, and ponies are extremely hardy and intelligent animals, capable of thriving on meager rations in a harsh climate.
