Horse

The horse is large mammal native to Earth. Humans used horses as transportation for thousands of years prior to the invention of motorised transport.

The Trojan War ended when the Greek army, on the Doctor's advice, constructed a giant wooden statue of a horse, hid inside it and presented it to Troy. (DW: The Myth Makers) The Trojan Horse would go on to become a frequently used metaphor for hidden danger.

Horses are also known to have evolved on other planets, such as the Cheetah World (DW: Survival), Telos (BFA: Spare Parts), and, presumably, Augea (TDA: Sting of the Zygons)

A purple horse with yellow spots was a delegate at the Third Inter-Galactic Peace Conference. (DW: Frontier in Space)
