Which is larger a bull elk or a female horse?
For purposes of this question, I am assuming you mean Wapiti, which are also known as "elk". The complete answer depends somewhat on the subspecies of elk and a great deal on the breed of horse. Obviously it matters whether you are talking about a Clydesdale mare or a Shetland Pony mare.
Bull Elk weigh an average of 320 kilograms (710 lb), standing 1.5 meters (4.9 ft) at the shoulder and averaging 2.5 meters (8.2 ft) in length. Males of the largest subspecies, the Roosevelt Elk get to be about 3 meters (10 feet) in length, stand about 1.5 meters (5 feet) tall at the shoulder and can top 600 kilograms (1,300 lb).
The size of horses varies by breed, but also is influenced by nutrition. Light riding horses usually range in height from 1.42 to 1.63 meters (4.7 to 5.3 ft) and can weigh from 380 to 550 kilograms (840 to 1,200 lb). Larger riding horses usually start at about 62 inches (1.57 m) and often are as tall 1.7 m (~6.7 feet), weighing from 500 to 600 kilograms (1,100 to 1,300 lb). Heavy or draft horses are usually at least 1.6 to 1.8 meters (5.3 to 6 feet) high and can weigh from about 700 to 1,000 kilograms (1,500 to 2,200 lb).
It is probably not too far off to say that a bull elk is about the same size as a female horse (as long as you aren't including those huge antlers they sport).
The Eurasian Elk, Alces alces, which is called moose in North America, is even bigger than the Wapiti. On average, an adult moose stands 1.8-2.1 m (6-7 ft) high at the shoulder and weighs 380-720 kg (850-1580 pounds). The largest of all is the Alaskan subspecies (A. a. gigas), which can stand over 2.1 m (7 ft) at the shoulder, has a span across the antlers of 1.8 m (6 ft) and averages 634.5 kg (1,396 lbs) for the bulls. The largest confirmed size for this species was a bull shot at the Yukon River in September 1897 weighing 820 kg (1,800 lb) and was 233 cm (92 in) tall at the shoulder.
A bull moose (Eurasian Elk) would be expected to be bigger than a female horse unless you are talking draft horses like Clydesdales - which would be close to the same size but heavier.
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.
