Bio: In the Dakota language, 'tanka' means big and this pony certainly thinks he is. Tanka can often be seen out in the field instigating mischief with horses more than twice his size. Tanka is full of character and he makes a wonderful children's pony. He is tireless, intelligent and brave! When it comes to show jumping, this little pony boldly gallops around the ring clearing everything in his path. Tanka was born and raised on a Dakota reservation.

Tanka is adopted by Karen and David Shuttee.
