Here are several suggestions from AHP members.
San Diego Zoo Safari Park and Przewalski Wild Horses
AHP members with serious editorial interest in the Przewalski wild horses at the San Diego Zoo’s Safari Park, should contact PR rep Dani Dodge Medlin right away! She’s offered to organize a special media visit for a limited number of journalists to see the park’s Przewalski horses!
Once known as the San Diego Wild Animal Park, today's San Diego Zoo Safari Park was renamed to capitalize on safari-type options at this nearby Escondido attraction which is home to 14 of the world's rare Przewalski wild horses.

See the Pure Spanish Horse
Panadero XLVI, the legendary Pura Raza Española stallion of Liberty Exhibition fame, comes from the world-renowned bloodlines of the Cárdenas Stud of Spain and the Yeguada Militar. The Pure Spanish Horse, or P.R.E., is a rare breed not often seen in the United States and is one of the oldest breeds in the world today. Born in 2002, Panadero’s journey from Spain to the U.S. was the accomplishment of his owner’s dream and passion for this special breed, its temperament, versatility, athletic ability, and intellect.
