Because mahogany wood is what's known as a 'hard wood' from the centre of the tree. This makes it ideal for carousel horses as it can stand up to years of 'wear and tear' from people sitting on them.

When did the use of horses on a carousel begin?

Carousels have always been associated with horses as they came from a cavalry training device used by Turkish and Arabian soldiers at the time of the crusades and back in Europe the term became used for mounted displays. But for the modern usage of carousel, then it is during the 1700s that they began to be used in fairgrounds where the wooden horses would be attached by poles or chains and would fly out via centrifugal force.
