Equus ferus caballus
The word "pony" derives from the old French poulenet, meaning foal, a young, immature horse. Domesticated ponies of all breeds originally developed mainly from the need for a working animal that could fulfill specific local draft and transportation needs while surviving in harsh environments.

Yo hasta ahora veo estos tan peludos
Gracias, Ismael! Aqui hay tantos en el campo y a mi me encantan estos mini caballos regordetes :-)
Hermoso!
I adore ponies! and here in the neighborhood we have so many that I could not resist to finally post them in Noah :-)
They have such heavy coats you would think they were Shetland ponies.
