South West Equine Protection is a registered charity based on Dartmoor. We respond to wild pony emergency callouts on Dartmoor and Bodmin moors. Donations from the public enable us to respond to callouts and get veterinary help for ponies in distress. All the "wild" ponies on the moors are owned, but sadly many owners try to avoid their duty of care...

Dead Pony Bodmin Moor - Carbilly Tor
This dead pony was discovered by dog walkers on Bodmin Moor. The pony had an identification mark to link it to an owner and this was reported to the authorities. This was a young mare, who was 2.5-3 years old based on ageing her teeth. Our assessment showed there was not much condition on her neck, so we believe that this mare was in poor condition before she died.
