The Gayoe, also known as the kuda-Gayo is a pony from the island of Sumatra, found near Aceh.〔(FAO Domestic Animal Diversity Information System (DAD-IS) ), accessed December 8, 2007〕 The name is derived from the Gayoe hills in the north of the island.〔("About the Batak-Deli breed" )〕 The Gayoe is one of eight breeds native to Indonesia; the others are the Batak Pony, Deli pony, Bali Pony, Java Pony, Sumba and Sumbawa Pony (and closely related Sandalwood Pony) and Timor Pony.〔("Races de chevaux et d'équidés" ''Lexique du cheval!'' (Includes English section) ) Web page accessed December 8, 2007〕 ==Characteristics and uses== Gayoe ponies are generally solid-colored, usually a dark bay shade commonly called "brown." Adults are approximately 12.2 hands (114 cm) tall at the withers, and small-bodied.〔 They are primarily used for transportation on Sumatra, and the 1997 FAO Breed Survey indicated that the breed has a stable population of about 7500 animals, thus it is not endangered.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Gayoe」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
