The Mustang Horse
The mustang is an extremely famous horse and due to its unique place in history, is held by many as a symbol of the romantic and pioneer spirit of the American wild west.
But Mustangs are often called 'wild' horses, the more appropriate name is 'feral' horses as most so-called 'wild' horses present in The u.s. are descended from horses that were first domesticated horses shipped to The usa by the colonists.
Most of these foreign horses were of Spanish or Arabian breeding stock, although they also had amongst them all conceivable colors and many horse lovers types and breeds.
Clearly, some of these independent and clever horses escaped or were acquired by the indigenous peoples, and swiftly spread all through the whole country.
