Horses in Russia
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The presence of horses in Russia is attested by prehistoric fossils and has been constant throughout its history, particularly during the Soviet era, thanks to the integration of territories with a strong equestrian tradition. Trick riding stems from the military traditions developed by the Russian Cossacks. Russian equestrian culture is characterized by the exclusive use of the "duga" yoke, known in particular through the troika.
