Range Trotters are the result of crossbreeding Orlov Trotters, Finnhorses, Welsh Cobs (section C & D) and Hanoverians. Later crosses of Quarter Horses, Paint and Appaloosas to gain color and to give a boost to their hardiness.With a height average of 13-15 hands, they're a hardy breed with characteristics for various disciplines.

Created for use as work, carriage and leisure riding horses originally, they now serve as long-distance range horses, such as work with Park Rangers and mounted officers.

Willing and eager personalities, most are quickly trained to be bombproof and therefore trusted mounts in all lines of work; some are being seen in local show jumping competitions, others are notably used in therapeutic sessions for their calm temperaments. Harness races and endurance trials are common for the breed, as they are able to sustain an extended trot without tire. Cross-Country competitions see some of the taller Trotters, but due to their cob lineage this is still uncommon.

Despite the variety of competitions and work these horses are being seen in, they are still famously skilled as endurance racers. Many competitors have chosen Range Trotters due to their tireless work ethic, as well as the ease in which they can be trained. Many have become champions in endurance trials, and they have quickly become a sought after breed for their natural ability.

Prompt: Have you ever wondered why pirates wear eye patches? Wonder no more! It was to keep one eye dark-adapted. When a person’s eye is not used to bright light after spending long periods in darkness, they may experience discomfort and impaired vision. By covering one eye with an eye patch, pirates could quickly adjust their vision from dark to light settings or vice versa. This was especially useful when they had to judge distances during nighttime battles or when boarding an enemy ship.

Prompt:

Pirates burying their treasure isn’t as common as you might think. It is mostly done as a last resort and the most famous pirate who had actually buried their treasure was Captain Kidd and he would go back and retrieve it eventually. Pirates usually divide the treasure amongst themselves. Most of their treasure aren’t gold or jewellery as well. It was mainly textiles, food and medicine.

Prompt:
Did you know that water falls underwater? The tallest waterfall on Earth is the Denmark Strait cataract, located between Greenland and Iceland, and drops 3,500 m. Compare this to the tallest land-based waterfall, Angel Falls, which drops only 979 m. The Denmark Strait cataract is caused by differences in pressure either side of the strait, where cold water from the Nordic Sea sinks rapidly below the warmer waters from the Irminger Sea at a rate of 5 million cubic meters per second — about 2,000 times faster than Niagara Falls.
