3rd International Wild Equid Conference in Kenya
Of seven wild equid species, four are considered ‘threatened’ in the wild, including the Mongolian wild horse. Around 100 dedicated experts from over 20 countries met in Kenya at the beginning of April 2025 for a week-long conference for exchanging knowledge and experience in the fields of science and species conservation and for strategising for the betterment of the future of all wild equids. The wild horse reintroduction projects in Mongolia, China and Kazakhstan were also discussed. The ITG was represented by its president Reinhard Schnidrig, veterinarian Angela Becsek and a delegation from Prague Zoo. The summaries of the presentations and posters can be read here.
