Equus alaskae was a Pleistocene species of horse, now extinct, that inhabited North America.
Fossils found from Alaska to Mexico have been identified as Equus alaskae, and it has been referred to as the most common equid in the southwest of North America. The species was medium to small-sized, around the dimensions of a cowpony.
