Schleich Farm Life Ardennes foalThe Ardennes is a heavy draft horse that is very lively in spite of the massive body. The Ardennes is one of the oldest cold-blooded animals and originates from the Ardennes - a wooded mountain range between Belgium Luxembourg and France. It is a real powerhouse but still quiet durable and reliable. For this reason in the Middle Ages the Ardennes were also popular as riding horses for knights to carry them effortlessly together with their heavy armour. Later they were used by Napoleon as warhorses and pulled heavy guns through mud and snow. Even today the Ardennes is popular for its ability to work in rough hilly terrain. * Binomial name: Equus ferus caballus * Global Home: Worldwide * Primary Habitat: Domesticated * Size: 7 × 91 × 22 cmWARNING!Not suitable for children under 3 years.
