Al Khamsa Arabian horses are those Arabian horses in North
America that can reasonably be assumed to descend entirely
from Bedouin Arabian horses bred by horse-breeding Bedouin
tribes of the deserts of the Arabian peninsula without admixture
from sources unacceptable to Al Khamsa. Al Khamsa reserves the
right to determine which horses are called Al Khamsa Arabian
Horses. By this rigorous definition, only about 2% of all registered
Arabian horses qualify as "Al Khamsa Arabian Horses."

| Preservation breeding is an attempt by many animal breeders to preserve bloodlines of animals, either of a rare breed, or of rare pedigrees within a breed. One purpose of preservation breeding is to protect genetic diversity within a species, another is to preserve valuable genetic traits that may not be popular or in fashion in the present, but may be of great value in the future. |
