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...

Mare Having Difficulty Foaling
We received a late evening call from a member of the public reporting a Hill pony mare having difficulty foaling on Dartmoor near to Ivybridge. It was witnessed that the foal was stuck inside the mare. SWEP reported the pony to the Commoners – they contacted a local farmer who said it wasn’t his and if he couldn't find the owner he would send someone out.
