This extraordinary animal was bred at Marion, Oregon, United States. He is eight years old, and his mane measures 14ft and his tail 11ft.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This extraordinary horse, bred in Marion, Oregon, United States, in 1895, holds the record for the longest mane and tail in the world. At eight years old, this horse's mane measured an impressive 14ft in length, while its tail reached an astonishing 11ft. The meticulous care required to maintain such an extensive coat was a daily routine. Both the mane and tail were washed and combed every day, divided into thick tresses, and knotted near the ends. At night, these tresses were rolled up and tied in separate bags, with an astonishing five bags used for the mane alone. This horse's remarkable coat was a sight to behold during the late 1890s in America, making it a true equine anomaly.
