In the equine world, there are many different terms used to describe the color of horses. And it isn't as straightforward as you might think! Whilst we have solidly colored horses such as black and gray, we also have horses that come in very specific shades and color combinations.
One example of this is a dun horse. This color means that the horse has a body that is light brown in color - often described as golden or straw colored. The horse will also have distinctive black shading to the head, lower legs, mane, and tail hair.
