The Sable Island Pony also known as the Sable Island Horse is a type of feral horse found on Sable Island an island off the coast of Nova Scotia Canada. The first horses were brought to the island for pasture in the late eighteenth century and additional horses were later transported to improve the herd's breeding stock. The horses are protected by law in their feral state. The horses live only at Sable Island and at the Shubenacadie Wildlife Park in nearby Shubenacadie.
