World's Oldest Twin Horses?

The BBC web site in Great Britain has created a little slide show about what is believed to be the world's oldest surviving pair of twin horses. The pair are currently in the care of the Veteran Horse Society (VHS) in Wales, at their farm by the sea.

The VHS is a wonderful organization that not only serves in a rescue/retirement/welfare capacity but also has a strong educational and promotional mission, encouraging the continued use and fitness of older horses. Prizes are given to aged horses competing in shows and in public view.
