Exmoor ponies enjoy the hazy summer sun in Littlebredy, Dorset, near the Valley of Stones national nature reserve in the last decade of August 2023. The “Little Horses of Exmoor” are still a critically endangered breed, but their numbers have now risen to 3,500. In 1948, two ponies were sent to London Zoo to highlight the fact that only 50 ponies remained on Exmoor. (Photo by Guy Edwardes/Animal News Agency)
