The pony (Equus ferus caballus) is one of two surviving subspecies of Equus ferus. It is an odd-toed ungulate warm blooded animal having a place with the ordered family Equidae. The pony has advanced in the course of the last 45 to 55 million years from a little multi-toed animal, Eohippus, into the huge, single-toed creature of today. People started taming fools around 4000 BC, and their taming is accepted to have been across the board by 3000 BC. Ponies in the subspecies caballus are tamed, albeit some tamed populaces live in the wild as non domesticated ponies. These non domesticated populaces are false wild ponies, as this term is utilized to depict ponies that have never been trained, for example, the jeopardized Przewalski's pony, a different subspecies, and the main staying genuine wild pony. There is a broad, 

Ponies are adjusted to run, permitting them to rapidly get away from predators, having an incredible feeling of equalization and a solid battle or-flight reaction. Identified with this need to escape from predators in the wild is a strange attribute: ponies can rest both standing up and resting, with more youthful ponies tending to rest fundamentally more than grown-ups. Female ponies, called female horses, convey their young for around 11 months, and a youthful pony, called a foal, can stand and run in no time following birth. Most tamed ponies start preparing under a seat or in a saddle between the ages of two and four. They arrive at full grown-up improvement by age five, and have a normal life expectancy of somewhere in the range of 25 and 30 years. 

Pony breeds are inexactly partitioned into three classifications dependent on general disposition: vivacious "hot bloods" with speed and perseverance; "cold bloods, for example, draft ponies and a few horses, reasonable for moderate, overwhelming work; and" warmbloods ", created from goes between hot bloods and cold bloods, regularly concentrating on making breeds for explicit riding purposes, especially in Europe. There are in excess of 300 types of pony on the planet today, created for a wide range of employments. 

Ponies and people interface in a wide assortment of game rivalries and non-serious recreational interests, just as in working exercises, for example, police work, horticulture, diversion, and treatment. Ponies were verifiably utilized in fighting, from which a wide assortment of riding and driving strategies created, utilizing a wide range of styles of gear and techniques for control. Numerous items are gotten from ponies, including meat, milk, stow away, hair, bone, and pharmaceuticals extricated from the pee of pregnant female horses. People furnish trained ponies with food, water, and haven, just as consideration from masters, for example, veterinarians and farriers.

Horses are systematically indistinguishable creatures from ponies. The differentiation between a pony and horse is usually drawn based on tallness, particularly for rivalry purposes. Be that as it may, stature alone isn't dispositive; the distinction among ponies and horses may likewise incorporate parts of phenotype, including compliance and demeanor. 

The conventional standard for stature of a pony or a horse at development is 14.2 hands (58 inches, 147 cm). A creature 14.2 h or over is normally viewed as a pony and one under 14.2 h a pony,[30] however there are numerous special cases to the customary norm. In Australia, horses are viewed as those under 14 hands (56 inches, 142 cm). For rivalry in the Western division of the United States Equestrian Federation, the cutoff is 14.1 hands (57 inches, 145 cm). The International Federation for Equestrian Sports, the world overseeing body for horse sport, utilizes metric estimations and characterizes a horse similar to any pony estimating under 148 centimeters (58.27 in) at the shrivels without shoes, which is simply over 14.2 h, and 149 centimeters (58.66 in), or simply over 14.2​1⁄2 h, with shoes. 

Stature isn't the sole measure for recognizing ponies from horses. Breed vaults for ponies that normally produce people both under and over 14.2 h believe all creatures of that breed to be ponies paying little heed to their stature. Then again, some horse breeds may share includes practically speaking with ponies, and individual creatures may every so often develop at over 14.2 h, yet are as yet viewed as horses. 

Horses frequently display thicker manes, tails, and generally speaking coat. They likewise have relatively shorter legs, more extensive barrels, heavier bone, shorter and thicker necks, and short heads with expansive brows. They may have more settled personalities than ponies and furthermore a significant level of insight that could possibly be utilized to help out human handlers. Little size, without anyone else, isn't a select determinant. For instance, the Shetland horse which midpoints 10 hands (40 inches, 102 cm), is viewed as a horse. Alternately, breeds, for example, the Falabella and other little ponies, which can be no taller than 30 inches (76 cm), are characterized by their libraries as little ponies, not horses.
