Musey Pony

Origins

The Musey Pony comes from North Cameroon and was developed by the local people specifically for their needs of hunting & war. However while they were shaped by mankind’s violent needs, they were also a very essential part of daily life. In fact, they were the subjects of rituals & care that actually gave them a measure of humanity. Later, as the needs of war were replaced by agriculture, they remained an integral part of society still.

Sadly as those agricultural needs become increasingly more mechanized, this animals place in the local society is changing & their numbers are dwindling.

Do you have images or know more about the Musey Pony breed? I’d love help completing this page, please contact me to get involved.
