It is believed that a merchant from Boston named Thomas Hancock took the first horses to Sable Island by boat. Thomas was a relative of John Hancock, one of the signers of the Declaration of Independence.
The Sable Island horses were most likely placed there by farmers or owners that could no longer afford the taxes on their animals. Some however may have come ashore from ship wrecks that happened around that time.

The only island with wild horses remaining on it is Sable Island. ^^
There are also wild Mustangs, but yes, and Newfoundland ponies.
The Sable Island Ponies were not used for coal mining. The first of these horses are thought to have been survivors of shipwrecks, or that they were sent there for breeding and pasture. Later, the horses that the British seized from the Acadians were purchased and transported there in 1760. The only group of Sable Island Ponies ever taken from the island now live in Shubenacadie Wildlife Park on the mainland of Nova Scotia. Most ponies that were used for coal mining were Shetland Ponies, which are smaller than the Sable Island Ponies.

No. Sable Island is a national park reserve, an island that is to be kept wild, not one that is suitable for humans to live on it.
The population density of Sable Island is 0.14 people per square kilometer.
Black is a color and not a breed. Appaloosa horses can be black.
All horses can cross breed with each other.
