The Przewalski’s Horse is a rare and endangered species of horse native to the steppes of Central Asia
. It used to be extinct in the wild
, but thanks to the conservation efforts of the Prague Zoological Garden in 2011 (coordinated with other contries), individuals bred in captivity were transported into Mongolian national parks
. Today, thanks to that effort, the Przewalski’s Horse can once again be found in the wild
You can see the Przewalski’s Horses in Prague Zoo
, but there are four females and one male at Dívčí hrady whom you can see for free. These are the individuals we’ll visit, along with a tour of Prokopské údolí
– a nature reserve right here in Prague, with amazing biodiversity and many rare species of plants.
We will also take a brief detour to visit Děvín, the ruined castle of the legendary Czech “Amazons”
