Are there any wild horses left?
There are several groups of wild horses in the US. There is the wild mustang in the western range states "sharing" grazing land with cattle, and bison. The only problem with this court order "sharing plan" is that the wild horses really have no "owners" supporting their rights to graze on these lands. While the cattle and bison have the force and will of their owner's behind them, not only enforcing, but extending their range rights for longer grazing, and more acerage, anytime factors require extra feeding. The wild horses only support are non-profit organizations that petion the court systems to enforce their orders for no fences, and fear free grazing ranges. The another group of wild horses in the US is a small group on the Outer Banks of North Carolina. This is two small herds and they live in harsh conditions, on the shifting sands of the islands. They are subjected to hurricanes off the coast and their numbers are declining. There are about 110 horses in the Shackleford Banks herd and 89 in Currick County, in the northern Outer Banks herd. A breeding program has just been started, off site to try to save the gentic breed incase of a natural disaster or a gentic collaspe. Less than 100 horses in a herd is considered at extinction level. There is also a tiny group of horses the Abaco Wild horse in the Bahamas, off the Gold coast of Florida. I know very little about them, but I understand at one time there were over 200 in the herd and now there are less than 15.
What country did horses come form?
MexicoNo, they didn't come from Mexico. They came from the middle east. The first breed of horses were Arabians, found in Arabia, not Mexico. Horses didn't arrive in the Americas until the spanish conquistodors accidentally let some go.AnswerThe horse's origin prior to domestication (and not as regards fossil records) is a topic still debated. The "Four Foundations Theory" suggests the horse come out of northern Europe or northern/western Asia. (Neither Mexico nor the Middle East enters into the argument.) The earliest records thus far found indicate the horse was first domesticated in Central Asia some 4500 years B.C. Certainly archaeological remains of chariots have been found in the Ural Mountains of Asia that date back 2,000 years. Surf on over to Wikipedia where our friends there have collected some data that can be mined.

When did the horses of sable island become used for coal mining?
The Sable Island Ponies were not used for coal mining. The first of these horses are thought to have been survivors of shipwrecks, or that they were sent there for breeding and pasture. Later, the horses that the British seized from the Acadians were purchased and transported there in 1760. The only group of Sable Island Ponies ever taken from the island now live in Shubenacadie Wildlife Park on the mainland of Nova Scotia. Most ponies that were used for coal mining were Shetland Ponies, which are smaller than the Sable Island Ponies.
