Yonaguni Conservation status FAO (2007): criticalCountry of origin Japan Distribution Yonaguni Island Height
Female:
average 116 cm[1]
The Yonaguni or Yonaguni uma (与那国馬 is a critically-endangered Japanese breed of small horse . It is native to Yonaguni Island , in the Yaeyama Islands in south-western Japan, close to Taiwan. It is one of eight horse breeds native to Japan.
History [ edit ]
In 1968 there were 210 Yonaguni horses. By the early 1980s, the number had fallen to little more than fifty. Numbers subsequently recovered slightly;[2] : 94 [1] conservation status of the breed was listed as "critical" by the FAO in 2007.[3] : 71
In 2003, genetic analysis using microsatellite data found the Yonaguni to be most closely related to the Miyako and Tokara small-island breeds, and less closely related to various Mongolian horse breeds than were the Dosanko and Kiso breeds of the main islands of Japan.[4] : 378
Characteristics [ edit ]
Like the other Japanese island breeds, the Yonaguni is small. Average height at the withers is 116–120 cm (11.2–11.3 h [1]
