Two ponies have arrived on The Sharpham Estate to help with rewilding.
The Konik ponies are mimicking wild horses that roamed the lands thousands of years ago, nibbling and browsing vegetation and keeping a check on plant growth naturally.
The ponies join Belted Galloways and Mangalitza pigs as part of a National Lottery Heritage Fund project Wild For People – restoring nature on former farmland near Totnes, South Devon.
