The votes are in! The three Przewalski's horse colts are named Gobi Wan Kenobi, Steppenhoof and Takhi Twist. #MyLittlePhorse

The Smithsonian Conservation Biology Institute welcomed four endangered Przewalski’s (cha-VAL-ski) horse foals (affectionately referred to as P-horses) in spring. We need your help naming three colts!

The foals live in a herd with their mothers and are quickly growing into mature horses. They are very relaxed, but will quickly vocalize if they are not in visual contact of the herd. Despite being close in age and living together, the foals are developing distinct personalities.
