[ INDEX ] Equine Type: Horse Breed: Harness Cukurova [ PREV ] [ NEXT ]
About:
The Cukurova was created at the beginning of the 20th century by blending Turkish Arabians with Uzunyaylas (and later with Anadolus.) Some horses received more Turkish Arabian blood and were later developed into the Saddle Cukurova. Others received more Uzunyayla blood and were developed into the Harness Cukurova, similar to its Uzunyayla ancestors who were used for pack work and for pulling carts.
Conformation:
The Harness Cukurova is heavier and fuller than the Saddle Cukurova. Its facial profile is convex, its eyes are smaller, its girth is deeper, and its legs a tad shorter than the legs of the Saddle Cukurova.
In addition, they also have a long head, long and upright ears, a long neck, prominent withers, a long and slightly sloping croup, and a narrow body. The mane and tail are thin, with the mane growing to medium length at most.
