Horse is to quadruped as human is to biped.
Biped.
A human is a biped, meaning we walk on two legs like fancy show-offs while horses use all four like the humble creatures they are. So, next time you see a horse trotting around on all fours, just remember they're the real multitaskers of the animal kingdom, unlike us two-legged humans who struggle to walk and chew gum at the same time.

Quadruped
Yes. A "quadruped" (Latin having four feet) is any animal with four legs.
A horse is a quadrupedal mammal while a Kangaroo is typically a bipedal marsupial.

The term "equine quadruped" carries a neutral connotation, primarily used in a scientific or formal context to describe horses or horse-like animals. While "equine" specifically relates to the horse family, "quadruped" simply denotes four-legged animals. Together, they convey an objective and descriptive tone rather than evoking emotional or cultural associations.
The scapula of a quadruped, such as a dog or horse, is located on the back, near the thoracic region. It is responsible for connecting the forelimb to the trunk of the animal and plays a crucial role in facilitating movement.
Kangaroo. It is the only marsupial.
