We all have Hooves, Right?
As you know, You are a pony. 4 hooves, A cutie mark, a mane, Etc. As you may know, There are other creatures fairly similar to us. Cows, Donkeys, Sheep, Pigs are known to reside in the main land while we also know Zebra's from the Plains, Famous for their Black and White stripes as well as having Cutie Marks as well. Recent Encounters established connections to the Buffalo tribes of the West like Appalossa and the Caribou Tribes of the North near Stalliongrad. But, There are others related to us that do not either Ally or care or something about Equestria.
The Cursed Ponies of Tramplevania
While these are Ponies almost like us. Same body structure, Same mane style and same Cutie marks. But, they carry twisted versions of our 'Unicorn and Pegasi". While Most of the country are Earth ponies, They are known to give birth to Dicorns and Bat Pegasi. Dicorns are like Unicorns, but have two horns instead of one. This allows better balance in charging and casting, but A Dicorn also has half the magic supply a normal unicorn of the same health and age would have. Bat Pegasi are no different from Normal Pegasi except that there feather wings are Leather and hairy. These ponies are said to be the product of Nightmare Moon tampering with subjects when she used the Dark country of Tramplevania as her Main Stronghold for it's Black Mountains and Mountainous landscape. The ponies also continue some traditions like their common tongue being an old code used by Nightmare Moons troops (See Page 125 in the book "The Dark Years: The Tyranny of Nightmare Moon and her Tactics") and for Cruel Leaders like Vlad the Impaler, Who would steal his subjects food and toss them on to a spike bed for fun.
Deer and Moose
Long Legs, Thin bodies, and are twice the height of ponies. Known as being 'Worshippers of the Earth', Deer are know for their grace and their vast knowledge on Healing and Purifying. They live in the Secluded Forest and travel in roaming caravans. Along with them are Moose, Great Wizards who's Males Heads are adorned by Gigantic Sturdy horns while the rests seems more like a bulky deer. Most is unknown about the Culture and Life style of these beings, But they prefer not coming in contact with Ponies
Changelings
A recent discovery showed a Ponylike Creature that is able to copy a ponies appearance. It may be related to the Boggart, (See Chapter: Odd Spokes, Scares and Other Bumps) as they both can change their appearance. They are Black Insect like Creature that resemble Minature Alicorns. Most about them is unknown, But a theory states that they act like a hive after a discovery of a large hive of them flying somewhere in May 998 CR (Celestia Rule).
Terrible beasts stalk such places like the Everfree Forest Near Canterlot or the Triptale Forest Near Baltimare. From Swamps to just a bunch of tree's, there will always be a nasty beast out there for you. From Magical in Nature to Evil and Corrupting, This should help you in your time of 'read'. (Get it? Read, Need? Awww Screw it...)
