  • A Chincoteague pony (Equus caballus), also known as an Assateague horse, grazes in a marsh on Assateague Island in the Chincoteague National Wildlife Refuge in Virginia. Chincoteague ponies are small — typically 12-13 hands (about 4 feet tall) — their growth stunted by the limited food and harsh environment of Assateague Island. About 300 wild — technically feral — ponies roam the island on the Atlantic coast. There is some dispute as to how the ponies ended up on the island. Some researchers believe the ponies are survivors of the wreck of a Spanish galleon, La Galga, which sank just off the coast in 1750; the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service believes they are descendants of horses owned by early colonial settlers.

  • A burro (Equus asinus), also known as a donkey, stands among the Calico Hills in the Red Rock Canyon Conservation Area in Nevada. Burros were introduced to the area in the 1800s by miners and ranchers who used them to haul heavy cargo. Some escaped or were freed, becoming wild (technically feral). The Red Rock Canyon area is part of the Mojave Desert and is a harsh environment, but the burros are able to survive by finding spring water and feeding on grasses.
