The New York Times reports the first Przhevalsky horses will arrive in weeks from St Petersburg. Maj. Gordon W. Lille plans to cross two mares and a stallion with American mustangs on his Pawnee Oklahoma ranch. The wild desert breed, discovered in 188% by Nicolaus Przhevalsky, is argued by Lille and Russians to be a distinct species.
