Kiger mustangs are a rare breed of horses. They have a rich history and have been around for a long time. Some of the famous ones were used by the Spanish conquistadors in the 1500s. Today, there are about 3,000 mustangs living on the ranges of Southwestern US. Kiger mustangs generally stand 13.2 to 15.2 hands (54 to 62 inches, 137 to 157 cm) high. They are compact, well-muscled horses with deep chests and short backs. They are known for their agility and intelligence, as well as for the stamina and sure-footedness common in many feral horse breeds. They can be bold but also gentle and calm.
