There are still wild horses in China, but they are in an endangered state. Przewalski's horse is the only remaining wild horse in the world.

Population status of the Przewalski's horse: The Przewalski's horse was first discovered in 1879 by the Russian explorer Przewalski in Kobdo, western Mongolia, China. In 1881, this wild horse was also officially named after the explorer.

, because it was generally believed in society that there were no wild horses anymore, this discovery caused a sensation, but large-scale hunting also followed.

In the 20th century, due to human hunting, war destruction, expansion of pastures, and human social production activities, the ecological environment was destroyed, causing the distribution area of ??Mongolian wild horses to shrink sharply.

It was not until 1967 that people saw the last wild population, and the last time they saw wild individuals in 1969. After that, the wild Mongolian wild horses completely disappeared from people's sight, and the protection status of this species also changed from "endangered" to "extinct in the wild"

".

In 1977, three men from Rotterdam, the Netherlands, founded the Przewalski's Horse Conservation Foundation. The foundation has two main goals. One is to use computer processing of pre-creation Przewalski's horse pedigree record data to establish a Mongolian horse pedigree record database;

The second is to initiate the release of Przewalski's horses into the wild.

In 1981, the Przewalski's Horse Conservation Foundation began to purchase Przewalski's horses and try to select wild horses with distant blood lines for breeding.

In 1986, the foundation began to cooperate with the Institute of Animal Evolutionary Morphology and Ecology of the Soviet Academy of Sciences. It is expected that by 1988, the cooperative research will be carried out to find suitable remaining grassland protected areas in the Soviet Union and Mongolia.

Finally, a 24,000-acre Hustanulu Grassland Reserve was established in Mongolia (formally established in 1998). In 1992, the first batch of 16 Mongolian wild horses were transported to the reserve for wild release. Due to the smooth progress,

The foundation sent two batches of 16 Mongolian wild horses to the reserve in 1994 and 1996. As of January 1, 1998, there were approximately 60 Przewalski's horses in the Hustan Nuru Grassland.

On August 14, 1986, the Ministry of Forestry of China and the People's Government of the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region formed a special agency to be responsible for the "return of wild horses" and built the largest wild horse in Asia covering an area of ??9,000 acres in Jimusar County, Xinjiang, on the southern edge of the Junggar Basin.

Breeding and breeding center.

With the return of 18 wild horses from Britain, the United States, Germany and other countries, the history of wild horses in the hometown of wild horses ended.

In 2008, the protection level of the Mongolian wild horse was adjusted to endangered in the IUCN Red List.
