I liked this

i thought this Australian Brumby was really cool, so here he is.

Australian Brumby

1. The Australian Brumby, first arrived here in 1788. Because of their natural warm climate in Australia, only the fittest survived. Some of them even died on the trip here.The first horses where used for farm work. When horse racing became a sport in 1810, high quality Thoroughbreds where imported from England and brought to Australia.

2. The Australian Brumby is not any particular color or size because domestic mares sometimes escape and join wild herds, so a strong fence is necessary. They are also sometimes mixed breeds like Draught horses, and Thoroughbreds because they love to escape.

3.This breed is resourceful, Strong and can consume poisonous plants.


 This particular AB (Australian Brumby) is Bay Dun in color with two coronet markings on his hind legs and dark eyes.

1.The Spanish brought Appaloosa horses to North America at around 1710. Somehow the Appaloosa found their way into Indian hands which they used to trade to other Indians in which they spread around America.
