Existing today in nearly perfect replica of its ancestors, the Abaco Barb is thought to be untouched by any other strain of equine blood, thus qualifying as the purest strain of the Spanish Barb anywhere on earth. A single remaining herd of 12 Abaco Barbs lives on Great Abaco Island in the Bahamas, with the powerful Capella, one of its stallions. Your purchase of the Capella model contributes to the protection of this truly endangered breed!
