Przewalski’s horses were once found in the western region of the Gobi Desert. They were last observed in the wild in 1968 within the remote semidesert steppe country located on the boundary between Mongolia and China.12

While the Przewalski’s horse was previously considered extinct in the wild, reintroduction programs in Mongolia and China have been established to restore their population in their native habitats.3
