Slow connection? Watch in lower quality

Another of our popular films in High Quality. See Ardennes horses working with logs. Glorious shots of these magnificent animals, with plenty of information from the Working Horse Trust

I work with Ardennes too, such kind-hearted beasts with a calm disposition… but strong as hell 😛

@bluemoondiadochi The name already says it, this race originates from the Ardennes mountain range (Luxembourg/Belgium) but you can find them all over Europe… though the chances are higher in that particurlar area if you want to find a pure "Ardennais" =)

large parts of Europe still and always have used, Horses ponys and donkeys on a daily basis I would suggest you visit eastern Europe and take a look at how common place working horses really still are.

I read that Gaius Julius Caesar used these horses for his equestrians, and later been used for the Clibanarii and byzantine Cataphract. and, for use in legionary baggage train.
