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...

Herd of 40 Abandoned Ponies on Bodmin Moor
Our officer also visited a herd of 40 "abandoned" ponies. Again, all the adult ponies had ear notches relating to one farmer. The private land owner has repeatedly tried to move the ponies back to where they should be living but the next day the gate to the moor is open and the ponies return to the private land.
