About the Faroe pony
The Faroe pony, Faeroes pony, or Faroese horse, is a small pony, with a height between 11.1 to 12.1 hands. Technically this animal is a pony due to its height, but in the Faroe Islands it is called a horse because of its strength. Since the Faroe pony only lives on the Faroes, it is not well known in other countries. In 2021, there were only 94 Faroe ponies left living on the Faroes.
