australian pony
Since the continent had no native horses or ponies prior to the arrival of European explorers and settlers, all equidae that now live there are from imported stock.
The Australian Pony's ancestors include the English Thoroughbred, the Hackney, the Welsh Mountain and Cob type, the Timor, the Arab, the Exmoor, and Hungarian ponies.
In 1931 the Australian Pony Stud Book Society was formed to establish and document a standard of type.
