Best Answer

The original Spanish explorers brought horses to North America. Many of those horses were turned loose when the Spaniards returned to Spain and they intermingled with native horses (horses that came from China over the ice cap). The Mustang is the result of that interbreeding. The first importation of Spanish Arabian horses was in 1934 when James and Edna Draper (from California) imported the first purebred Arabian horses to the United States.
