In pictures: 3,000-mile journey to save rare horses
Two female Przewalski's horses, Shara and Togs, bred at Marwell Zoo in Hampshire, were transported 3,000 miles to Kazakhstan to aid the species' reintroduction into the wild. Once extinct in the wild, the horses are now part of a global conservation effort to revive their population, which remains critically endangered. The journey involved a combination of air and land transport before their release in Kazakhstan. This relocation supports ongoing efforts by European zoos to restore the species to its native habitat.
