Shetlands have a special place in my heart :) I've moved this spotting to the Pets category for you. This helps separate the wild and domestic/captive spottings.

Thank you for your fast action! Here's the correct Scientific name for you: Equus ferus caballus http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shetland_pony

Hi TTaylor! Coiud you please crop or replace this image so that the little girl is not showing. On Project Noah we ask users to refrain from showing people on their spottings, especially children. This is for safety reasons, and to maintain the focus of the site on nature only. Thank you in advance http://www.projectnoah.org/faq
