Feral horse

Feral horse can have two different meanings:

1. All horse species (including extinct ones) which are closely related to the (domesticated) horse, but which were never domesticated
2. A population of horses, that were once domesticated, but are now free-roaming. There are many such poulations, which are often managed as wildlife.
