Best Answer

Feral can be considered the 'type' itself as feral horses tend to develop many of the same characteristics no matter where they are found. However many feral types go by different names according to their location. Some of them are as follows: Mustang, Brumby , Kaimanawa , Sorraia, Garrano, Sable Island horse, Chincoteague / Assateauge ,Vieques , Banker horse, Cumberland Island Horse, Danube Delta horse, And many, many others.
