The Pantaneiro horse originated in Brazil in Mato Grosso area. This Brazilian horse is mainly found in gray, black, bay and white colors. It is also found in brown color sometimes but it is very rare. The Pantaneiro has survived the extreme weather conditions caused due to the ever changing weather in the Amazons and also the severe flooding of the Amazon in the Pantanal region of Brazil. As a result the Pantaneiro has been found to be resistant to diseases like Equine anemia. These horses were used to travel in the swampy regions of the Pantanal.
