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:

Oh gosh, I love African wildlife! I really want to go one day. If I do go, the first thing on my list to see will be lions. Though it may seem like a basic choice, I have loved lions for a long time. Watching documentaries and studying their lifestyle is really interesting, and it constantly shows me that the wild is really unexpected.

For example, how they hunt. The fact that they can create a strategy and follow through with it shows the intelligence of these wild cats. Not to mention their strength, to even take down prey larger than themselves, with the power of numbers. Not to mention the fight for reign over a pride, they take it extremely seriously.

It's a really hard choice between the birds, antelope, Oryx's, zebras, wild dogs and more, but overall lions have really taken my heart.
