The early ancestors of modern horses spent their time in soft, primeval forests. Eventually, these early ancestors (who had three toes), moved to steppe land where speed was important to outrun predators. In order to gain this advantage, the horse ancestors began to have longer limbs and strengthen the third toe. Eventually this lead to the modern horse and its single toe and hoof combination.

Hyracotherium, also known as Eohippus, is an extinct genus of early horse that lived during the Eocene period, around 55 million years ago. It was a small herbivorous mammal, about the size of a dog, with multiple toes on its feet. Hyracotherium is considered an important ancestor of modern-day horses.

Hyracotherium is Genealogically recognised as the start of the horse Linage, it had 4 Hoofed toes on the front 2 feet and 3 hoofed toes on the back 2. Over millions of years of evolution they evolved into what we now call today's Modern Horse. Most of the Evolution is believed to have occurred on the North Hemisphere.
The first known ancestor of the horse was a creature called Eohippus (greek for Dawn Horse). Its scientific name is hyracotherium. This creature had four toes on each front foot and five on the hind foot, a short tufted tail, and was about the size of a domestic cat. This animal evolved into the modern horse. A number of intermediates are known, with gradually fewer toes. First the fourth toe on the forefoot, and the first and fifth on the hindfoot, shrink. Then the two outer toes on each foot shrink until the horse stands on the tip of a single toe as the modern horse (Equus caballus) does. One of the intermediates was Merychippus, which stood on one toe but had two others present.
