Przewalski's Horse is believed to be the last remaining wild species of horse. I have read about these horses but have never seen one. With only 150 horses in North America, you would probably have to visit a larger zoo.

Mustangs are commonly referred to as wild horses but are actually descended from horses brought to North and South America by the Spaniards. They are actually feral horses which, by definition, is a horse that is untamed and free-roaming, descended from domesticated horses. A true "wild" horse is descended from horses that have never been domesticated.
