Cyprus donkey
The Cyprus donkey is the donkey breed of the Mediterranean island of Cyprus.〔(Breed data sheet: Cyprus/Cyprus ). Domestic Animal Diversity Information System of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations. Accessed December 2013.〕 There are two principal strains: a large dark-coloured type with a pale belly, probably of European origin; and a small grey African type which represents about 20% of the total population, which in 2002 was estimated at 2200–2700.〔Waltraud Kugler, Hans-Peter Grunenfelder, Elli Broxham (2008). (Donkey Breeds in Europe: Inventory, Description, Need for Action, Conservation; Report 2007/2008 ). St. Gallen, Switzerland: Monitoring Institute for Rare Breeds and Seeds in Europe.〕
Some hundreds of Cyprus donkeys live in a feral state on the Karpass Peninsula in the Turkish-controlled northern part of Cyprus. They were abandoned there by Greek Cypriot farmers during the Turkish invasion in 1974. In 2008, a group of Greek and Turkish Cypriots organized to save the animals from extinction after several were found shot to death.
