Classic dun Norwegian Fjord horse - a photo on Flickriver

            Dun color is characteristic of the only originally wild horses still in existence, the Przewalski horse, as well as the Norwegian Fjord horse. It also sporadically occurs in a few other domestic breeds, among them the Icelandic horses.
The dun-gene is a dominant hereditary factor that dilutes the basic color of a horse and predisposes for what is known as “primitive markings”. These markings consist of a line of black or the undiluted basic color in the middle of the mane continuing along the back and down the tail and also more or less distinctive “zebra stripes” across the legs, and sometimes the withers. A black basic color with the dun gene produces a grey color known as “grullo”, “grulla”, “black dun”, “blue dun” or “mouse grey”. A brown or bay basic color with the dun gene gives a tan or gold color known as “classic dun”, “bay dun” or “zebra dun”. A red or chestnut basic color with the dun gene results in a pale reddish color called “red dun”, “fox dun” or “claybank”.
