The Marwari Horse
Marwaris are great horses. These Indian horses are thin skinned and hot-blooded. They have unusual ears that curve until they touch or almost do. Marwaris have a strait or convex head set on a muscular, short, well arched neck. They are strong, fast, and responsive which makes them excellent athletes. Marwaris are also tough and enduring. This adds to their athleticism.
Marwaris are a wonderful and rare part of the world that we must promote in the U.S.

- Be useful to find a photo of those ears. Maybe something on Flickr? Some stuff there is Ok to upload, some not... takes some getting used to the site to find the cc-2.0 and other acceptable images, but doable (go to Wikimedia commons, click upload file and read the stuff about uploading an image from Flickr to figure out what to do). Another interesting thing would be to find out how many Marwari horses are in India and outside of India, add in some statistics, and citations where you located info (careful not to add advertising links though) Good luck.

[edit] Edit move
This bit was unsourced and appears to be original research, but there may be something in it of use, so moving it to the talk page here in case someone can verify and incorporate it. Montanabw(talk) 03:14, 13 February 2008 (UTC)
Western vandalist historians and indian anti Maratha elements states that this breed is not of Indian origin and badtard offshoot of Arabian horde. Very untrue and vandalism. I was in search of our local Maratha horde breed Bhimthadi horde. Due to vast urbanisation its number is reduced. But i have seen some horse possesed by Dhangar tribse and other nomadic tribse of Maharashtra. Their small but standing and moveing ears attracted my attention. The breed seems too much hardy and i wondered that what food, care may have provided to them. When i was a boy in my home villege we had a horse of this breed and i still remembers the hardy few rides with him. I think that the present Marwari horse breed is originated from Male horse of this Maharashtra breed and female of Arabian horse. Edit summary was to "-- Vishal1976"
