horse tail

Equine rear appendage

A horse tail is simply the tail of a horse, the long flowing hair that grows from the hindquarters.

Horses use their tails to swat flies and signal mood.

Horse tail hair has practical uses in crafts, upholstery, and as bow hair for stringed instruments.

The term sometimes appears as two words to distinguish it from horsetail, the primitive spore-bearing plant with jointed hollow stems.
