Personalty: Maple is a sweet little mare, though she is slightly wild. She is slow to approach new people and is very skittish, but once she trusts you, you won't be able to shake 'er.
picture/gif and description of an unique horse breed: the Sable Island Pony (surprise it's actually a horse)

The horses were introduced to the island in the 1800s and by the 1950s were being rounded up and sold off to slaughter houses. So much of their population had been depleted that they nearly became extinct. Which is why by the 80s they were protected by the government of Canada and were not to have interference from humans. Research groups then started studying them from afar and that's when it was understood that their genetics were different enough for them to matter. After that they became conservation animals and Sable Island became a national park to offer them the most protection.
