The Akhal-Teke is a national emblem of the country Turkmenistan in Central Asia. A very old breed (at least 3000 years) it was bred for the desert. The coat often has a gold "shimmer" which may have helped for camouflage in the hot desert. The Akhal-Teke is most known for its speed, stamina, and trainability and is only found on the deserts of Horse Isle.
