Charolais horse
The Charolais or Charollais is an extinct breed of warmblood horse from the Charolais region of France surrounding the town of Charolles, now in the Saône-et-Loire department of Burgundy, in eastern central France. Like other French warmbloods, it was the result of crossing local agricultural horses with the Thoroughbred, and was known by the name of the region in which it was bred. The Charolais never had a breed-specific studbook. The Charolais and other French warmblood breeds were fused in 1958 in order to create the national warmblood studbook for a unified breed, the Selle Français. It was originally used as a multi-purpose horse for riding, driving and agriculture. During the late 19th century, additional Thoroughbred blood was added and a new type emerged that was principally used as a light cavalry mount. It was also used for dressage and show jumping.
==Characteristics==
The Charolais breed was small, and most closely physically resembled the Morvan horse, another now-extinct French type.〔 The breed had a short head with small ears and a short, strong neck attached low on the shoulder. The body was short and rounded, with a broad croup and strong legs.〔 They were generally considered to be small and inelegant.〔 They were strong, robust and hardy, the last of these traits especially so before the breeding changes of the 19th century,〔〔 and were known for their pulling power.〔
The Charolais was appreciated for its gaits and endurance.〔 It was known for its ability as a cavalry horse,〔 and in 1933 was called a perfect war horse. It was also used for dressage and show jumping,〔 and members of the breed competed in international events in these sports. It was considered to be a better galloper than the Anglo-Norman horse, another French breed.
