The Akhal-Teke is usually 14.3-16.3 hands high. Akhal-Tekes are usually a pale golden color with black points, but can also be bay, black, chestnut or grey. A notable feature of this breed is the metallic "bloom" of its coat, with some horses "shimmering" more than others.<br /> It is thought that this type of coloring helped them camouflage easier in the desert. This breed is tough and has adapted to the harsh land of Turkmenistan, where it came for the Karakum desert.<br /><br /><font size="2">Information from <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org">Wikipedia</a><br /></font></span><font size="2"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Citing_sources" title="Wikipedia:Citing sources"><span title="This claim needs references to reliable sources since March 2007" style="white-space: nowrap;"></span></a><span style="font-family: arial; font-style: italic;">Image used with permission from <a href="http://canaryzoo.com/horse%20species.htm">CanaryZoo</a> for use without economical profit.
