Their affect in the environment and how you can help
Their part in the environment
The Przewalski's Horse is a herbivore & primary consumer, mainly eating grasses and other vegetation. The Przewalski's niche is to be a primary consumer and decrease the plant population. Before it went extinct in the wild its natural predator was the wolf. As it is being reintroduced into the wild, they are being threatened by hybridization with domestic horses and competition for food and water with domestic horses and other livestock.
