When domesticated, they make good horses for children, and they are quite approachable and friendly even when living in the wild.
Once called the New South Walers, the Waler breed comes from Arabian, Cape, Timor, and Thoroughbred lines, and it is accepted that they include heavy draught horse genetics. They were famed for their hardiness and stamina, especially during the colonization of the country. Walers measure between 15 and 16 hands and have been used as warhorses and for their incredible stamina over the centuries. These seven breeds are considered Australian breeds, although many other horse breeds are also found in the country.
They are still used for ranching and transport, but the most common uses for these incredible breeds are for pleasure riding, teaching, and competitive eventing.

In Australia, the most common breed of horse is a Thoroughbred. A type of racehorse bred for speed and stamina and also Arabian Horses which have a very regal appearance. The Australian Native Horse is a breed that was made to be a truly all-purpose horse.
The breed can be ridden, turned into eventers, compete in show jumping or do endurance racing. The breed stands at about 14 hands tall one meter and bears the tan and brown colors of their native country.
They are tough, agile horses known for having boundless stamina and incredible speed when galloping on the open range. The first horses in Australia were brought over by the Europeans who settled here.
The first recorded introduction of these animals to this land was in The Australian Brumby is a wild horse breed that was initially found in the barrens of Australia. The horses are descendants of domesticated animals from Spain and English breeds, but they have retained much more primitive characteristics than their hybrid counterparts like Arabians or Thoroughbreds.
Staunchly defended by many as a symbol of the Australian Outback, these horses are now facing extinction. Australia has a thriving horse racing and equestrian community. I live in Perth, Western Australia myself and there are around 15 horses stabled in a property just a couple of miles down the road from me. The first horses arrived in Australia at Sydney Cove, like many of the introduced stock animals. The horses brought to Australia by the First Fleet, came from England.
No horses originated. Although, these African horses were brought over by the first fleet from England. No one specifically put them there. When people move to Australia they brought horses with them. Over the years some have escaped and bred.
These are the horses that are called wild or feral. Horses are found where there are people. Except for the few wild horses left in the world horses live where people live. In Australia most of the population is on the east side of the country. This is where you will find the largest horse population. The Brumby is a type of horse that developed in Australia after domesticated horses escaped or were turned lose. They are not an actual breed, but a type of feral horse.
The first horses were imported to Australia in and thereafter. Since that time horses have reverted to their feral behaviors once lose and begun to breed and form the herds of Brumbies that run feral in Australia. The top four benefits of pet ownership described by pet owners are: [ 1 ].
