Talk:Nokota horse

Untitled
The Nokota horse information is great but it doesn't list the web site for the Nokota Horse Conservancy which is the authoritative source for Nokota horse information and the breed registry.



Please visit the site and see lots of great photos! Maybe you'll want to help "Save the Native Horse of the Northern Plains."

This is a nice article, but strays from the truth when stating that the Nokota horses at the Kuntz ranch are the only remaining decendants of the orriginal wild feral horses that ran in the park in the early years of it's existence. The Nokota Horse site and other authoritative documents (Castle McLaughlin's report, written in 1989) state that Leo Kuntz crossed the early Nokotas with Quarter Horse and Paint, amoung other breeds because of a fear of inbreeding. It is clear from Tom Tescher's records, (Tom was the only one to keep accurate records of the horses for 50 years) that most of the horses that run in the park today are not of other breeds. There is no Arabian blood and very little QH blood left. The bucking horse was the only one to be very successful in passing on his blood, and his is quite diluted. My question is, why should they not also be accepted as Nokota Horses? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.97.227.157 (talk) 16:36, 17 October 2008 (UTC)
