What are the similarities between zebras and horses?

Answer 1

A pony is a horse, just a smaller breed.

^ Correction. A Pony is NOT a horse. Though they may seem to be just a smaller version of a horse, they also have many differences. Horses (to be considered a horse) stand 14.3 hands high, or higher, whereas a pony stands 14.2 hands high or shorter. The thickness of the manes and tails is also a difference, because ponies tend to have thicker manes and tails than a horse.Most Ponies also have a far more stubborn and higher spirited temperment, making them harder-to-ride mounts for riders, especially for the younger ones.

But they also have quite a few similarities. For example, both are considered Equines. They have many physical similarities aswell, such as hooves and manes and tails (which are obvious). The work horses and ponies can do are also pretty similar. Horses and ponies can both haul, but ponies just tend to pull smaller loads depending on their size. They can both carry people and can be used in sports, such as dressage and jumping, and other horse sports. (THe only thing ponies arn't quallified for are things like horse-racing, that is left for thourougbred race horses). There are many other smiliarities between the two.
