Range Trotters are the result of crossbreeding Orlov Trotters, Finnhorses, Welsh Cobs (section C & D) and Hanoverians. Later crosses of Quarter Horses, Paint and Appaloosas to gain color and to give a boost to their hardiness.With a height average of 13-15 hands, they're a hardy breed with characteristics for various disciplines.

Created for use as work, carriage and leisure riding horses originally, they now serve as long-distance range horses, such as work with Park Rangers and mounted officers.

Willing and eager personalities, most are quickly trained to be bombproof and therefore trusted mounts in all lines of work; some are being seen in local show jumping competitions, others are notably used in therapeutic sessions for their calm temperaments. Harness races and endurance trials are common for the breed, as they are able to sustain an extended trot without tire. Cross-Country competitions see some of the taller Trotters, but due to their cob lineage this is still uncommon.

Despite the variety of competitions and work these horses are being seen in, they are still famously skilled as endurance racers. Many competitors have chosen Range Trotters due to their tireless work ethic, as well as the ease in which they can be trained. Many have become champions in endurance trials, and they have quickly become a sought after breed for their natural ability.

Prompt: This one is probably super boring considering how common they are, and everyone knows what a ladybug is... but these little dudes are one of the few creepy-crawlies I actually welcome near me. I have an irrational fear for spiders, fat-bodied moths and JUNE BUGS... but ladybugs? Protect the babies. (especially from my cats, we got 5 so I gotta be quick--)

Also I'm sorry, the show name is from a line in A Bug's Life. The markings on this Trotter remind me of fireflies, sooo...

Prompt: Ohhhhh man, I have so many favorites!!! Caterpillars, moths, praying mantises, ladybugs, butterflies, etc.! I'd have to say that butterflies or moths probably take the #1 spot for me right now, but caterpillars are close behind!

1. Moths and butterflies
2. Caterpillars
3. Ladybugs
4. Praying mantises (only down here cuz they like to hurt me lol)

I also like the unspecified little green bugs that are in my yard. Not sure what they're called, but they're kinda... triangle shaped? They so funky!
