Indian Country Bred is the common name for the inter-bred mixture of Bhutia Ponies Spiti Ponies and Tibetan Ponies. These animals have been interbred for years so that many of the individual characteristics of the Bhutia and Spiti have been lost and they now are categorized as Indian Country Bred. They originated in the Himalayan region of India and are now found in the Buhtan Sikkim and Darjeeling regions of India.
