Austrian Warmblood and Arab-bred stallions to achieve their cavalry goals. Born in Syria in 1830, the part-Arabian horse Shagya became the most famous of these Arabian-bred stallions. He came to Bábolna in 1836 and founded a strain of light cavalry and carriage horses which were taller and heavier than purebred Arabians, but which retained distinct Arabian type. A chestnut Arabian named Gidran followed soon after, crossed on mares who were more Thoroughbred in type. Respectively, these two sires founded the Shagya Arabian and Gidran Anglo-Arabian breeds. The Nonius, Furioso-North Star, Shagya, Gidran, and several other strains are often collectively referred to as
Animal genetic resources for food and agriculture assessments of livestock biodiversity: "The State of the World's Animal Genetic Resources for Food and Agriculture" (2007) and "The Second Report on the State of the World's Animal Genetic Resources for Food and Agriculture" (2015). Although many diverse species and breeds of animals are currently available for food and agricultural production, there is more work to be done on classifying their risk of extinction: in 2014, 17% of the world's farm animal breeds are at risk of extinction and 58% are of unknown risk status, meaning that the problem may be underestimated. The world's pool of animal genetic resources is
