the feral horse I saw in Patagonia


Explanation:
From the link below:
Feral horses are the most widely dispersed of equids and populations are found throughout the world.... Domestic horses were introduced to most parts of the world in the 18th and 19th centuries by European colonists....The breeds represented in different populations vary, however all are descended from domestic horses that were released or escaped and became feral. The largest populations are now found in North America and Australasia.
