Ob
Pony
The rare Ob pony, also known as the Priob, is from western Siberia in Russia and is used as a draft pony.
Similar to the Narym Pony, the Ob pony is bred in the Khanty–Mansi national district near the lower areas of the Ob and Irtysh rivers. The climate is severe with extreme cold, deep snow and lack of grain foods, creating difficult conditions for working horses. They are used chiefly as pack animals in winter and also work in forests. During the summer months the horses do not work and are left free to graze the marshes.
