    Kim, just to let you know: JungleDragon has policy to only allow for wildlife photography. This allows nature landscapes and animals, plants and fungi both in the wild and in zoos. It excludes people, buildings, objects and pets, those are considered off topic on this site.

    This particular photo is in the grey area, I'll keep it for now, but I just wanted to let you know the policy.     Posted 11 years ago

The Domestic horse

The horse is one of two extant subspecies of "Equus ferus". It is an odd-toed ungulate mammal belonging to the taxonomic family Equidae. The horse has evolved over the past 45 to 55 million years from a small multi-toed creature into the large, single-toed animal of today. Humans began to domesticate horses around 4000 BC, and their domestication is believed to have been widespread by 3000 BC.
