A pony is any of several different horse breeds with a specific conformation and temperament. Compared to horses, ponies often exhibit thicker manes, tails and overall coat, as well as proportionally shorter legs, wider barrels, heavier bone, thicker necks, and shorter heads with broader foreheads.

By definition for many forms of competition, ponies measure less than 14.2 hands (hh) (1.47 meters or 58 inches) at the withers. Horses are 14.2 or taller. However, the term "pony" can be used in general (or affectionately) for any small horse, regardless of its actual size or breed, and some horse breeds may have individuals who mature under 14.2 but may still be allowed to compete as horses.

The pony originated from original wild horse prototypes that developed small stature due to living on the margins of livable horse habitat. These smaller animals were domesticated and bred for various purposes, especially in Great Britain and Ireland. Ponies were historically used as "pit ponies" hauling loads of coal up from the mines, for driving and freight transport, as children's mounts, for recreational riding, and later as competitors and performers in their own right. Larger ponies can be ridden by adults, as ponies are usually very strong.

Ponies are generally considered intelligent and friendly, though sometimes are described as stubborn or devious. The differences of opinion may result from an individual pony's degree of proper training. Ponies trained by children, rather than by experienced horse trainers, frequently turn out to be spoiled because children typically lack the experience base to correct bad habits. Properly trained ponies are appropriate mounts for children who are learning to ride.

Lets make a deal. I'll tell you what a pony is. But you must tell me what a moron is, since you seem have experience in that area.
