Back in the 1800 people often used all sorts of farm animals to pull carts and a big pig was perfect for a cart ride with the little ones. I just hope he didn’t start rolling in the mud.

If you want to live on the dangerous side of life you could always get pulled around by a lion! Zoo rides back in the early 1900s were a little riskier than today’s ones.

If you want raw power you can do far worse than take a cart ride with two buffalo. But I do know buffalo are quite grumpy and will run off when annoyed.

Knowing the top speed of an Ostrich which is 70 km/h (45 mph) I can only imagine this is a very fast ride indeed. Until it stops, turns around and tries to peck your eyes out that is.

If you like your cart pulling animals to have a lot more prance you might want to consider getting a llama to pull your cart. They are nice and strong but might spit at you every few miles.
