Wild steppes of Europe/Asia border and Przewalski’s horses | Orenburg, Russia

Orenburg isn’t a popular place to visit in Russia but in vain. It’s one of the country’s biggest regions which contains masses of preserved corners of pristine nature, the Ural Mountains, salt lakes, the spirit of the ancient history of the tribes and endless steppes with the world’s last preserved wild horses named Przewalski’s. Przewalski’s horse is the last species of truly wild horse left on Earth. It was discovered in 1879 by a famous Russian traveler and geographer Nikolai Przewalsky in Central Asia. The species almost died out completely twice in history but now the horses are revived in the centers of reintroduction like Orenburg nature reserve. So far in Russia, this center of reintroduction of Przewalski horses is the only one.
