Kaimanawa Horse Muster.

Kaimanawa horses are a population of feral horses in New Zealand that are descended from domestic horses released in the 19th and 20th centuries. They are known for their hardiness and quiet temperament.

Horses were first reported in the Kaimanawa Range in 1876. The herds grew as horses escaped or were released from sheep stations and cavalry bases. The number of horses declined as large-scale farms and forestry operations were built on the ranges, and there were only around 174 horses by 1979. The government started protecting the Kaimanawa horses in 1981, and there were 1,576 horses by 1994. Roundups have been carried out annually since 1993 to manage the size of the herd. All suitable horses are available for rehoming after the roundups. The Kaimanawa horse population is listed as a herd of special genetic value by the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization.
