The Kiger Mustang Breed
The Kiger Mustangs is a breed of horse that has not been around too
long. In fact, the horse was actually discovered back in 1977. It was
round up in southeastern Oregon in the United States of America. After
the horses where roundup, some of them were sent to the University of
Kentucky so that the horses could be studied. What people found is that
the horse actually had DNA that was very close to another breed of
horse. They say that the DNA was related to the DNA of the Spanish
horses that were brought over to America in the 1600's. After this, the
horses were spread out to other locations around the United States. Now
the Kiger Mustang is, of course, an established breed of horses. The
funny thing is that most of the Kiger Mustangs of today can be tracked
back to one single horse that was named Mesteno. This is a name that
means stray in Spanish. It is just amazing to track all of these horses
back to just one horse.
The colors of these horses are usually about the same. In fact, most of
the Kiger Mustangs have a dun color to them. However, some of them do
have some markings on them that are kind of zebra-like on their legs
and sometimes on their shoulders. The Kiger Mustangs are known for
being very agile creatures. They can run like the wind, and they are
very hard to catch. To make matters worse, they are very intelligent
animals as well. Thus, when they do not want to be found, they will not
be found. To top things off, they also have a very high stamina, which
means they can out run a lot of other horses. They may not be the
fastest, but they can run for a lot longer. The horses are not scared
of many things, and they do have a lot of courage. Overall, their
performance and endurance is just flat out amazing. They do have a very
calm and gentle nature when they are brought up around humans. It is
for this reason why the horse is a good horse to get for pleasure
riding people. They do not like to work, and they prefer to just go out
for runs every now and again. In fact, this is a horse that likes to
run, and sometimes it can be hard to make them walk. They prefer to be
moving fast.
If you have ever seen the movie Spirit, the mustang in that movie
(called Spirit) is actually based on a real Kiger Mustang. This is a
great horse that you are going to want to see. They have a great color
to them, and they are very beautiful to watch. In fact, this is a breed
of horse that a lot of people own just because they like the look of
them. Others know what a great horse these horses can be, and they get
them for that reason. No matter what kind of Kiger Mustang horse you
get, or for whatever reason you get them, this is a horse that will be
able to live up to your exceptions.
