The mustang horse
The mustang is an extremely well-known horse which is revered by many as a live symbol of the historic and cowboy spirit of the Old wild west.
Even though Mustangs are usually referred to as 'wild' horses, the more accurate phrase is 'feral' horses as almost all free-roaming horses living in The usa are related to horses that were first domesticated animals shipped over to America by the early settlers.
In most cases, these imported horses were of European or Arab breeding stock, but included all possible colours and many horse lovers breed types.
Some of these independent horses went wild or were stolen by indigenous americans, and soon spread all through the whole of america
