It is interesting to note, however, that some equine breeds are not considered ponies. There are several wild breeds of pony, and these have often been captured and bred for various purposes. Used for hauling loads of coal up from the mines, for freight transport, as children’s mounts and for entertainment, and later as competitors and performers in their own right. They were also ridden (and continue to be ridden) by adults, as ponies are usually very strong.
