thousands of Newfoundland ponies once roamed Newfoundland. In the 1960's, the Newfoundland pony was replaced by ATVs, tractors, snowmobiles and other mechanical equipment. Fencing laws were enacted and breeding was discouraged.  Many ponies were sold by their owners who thought they were going to new homes but in fact most were sent to  horse slaughter and meat processing plants in Quebec. They were taken off the island in tractor trailer loads. 

ONLY ABOUT 400 SURVIVE TODAY WITH ABOUT 250 LEFT OF BREEDING AGE.

Since 2013, We have been involved with ensuring the welfare of and rehoming almost 80.

Newfoundland Pony Conservancy Center cares for 23.

  Groups such as the Newfoundland Pony Society, EQUUS SURVIVAL TRUST and the Newfoundland Pony Conservancy Center  
​are hard at work taking measures to save the breed.
