On the farm (14) : The Belgian !

With its heavy muscling, the Belgian is one of the strongest draft horse breeds in the world and weights more than 1 ton !

At the end of the 19th century, the Belgian became very highly sought and many of them were exported for use all over Europe, Russia and America.

Recently there has been a boom of interest in the USA for this heavy draft breed.
