How about no

Good fanfic idea

That is the best pony skeleton I think I’ve ever seen O.o
 
Anyways, since people were talking about pony sizes:  

@Agent Tasmania  
It probably is, and would certainly make quantification hella easier, but in a world where “daylight” is an optional feature, I try not to take anything too much for granted. The writing and editing staff have, after all, specifically said that other measurements like “moons” are deliberately nonspecific to keep them from writing themselves into a corner because of details rather than just telling a good story. I think it’s safe to assume Human foot = Pony foot until canonically stated otherwise, but I wouldn’t be too upset if they stated otherwise.
 
etymology be damned  
I’d want to research it before I laid money on it, but a cursory look around seems to indicate that the word is actually old enough– pre-Hellenic Greek and Sanskrit– that it apparently meant the terminal apparatus of any leg, not just the Human foot. Assuming Equestrian to be a fantastical analogue of American English, I could easily see Ponies having the word defined as “base or bottom end of an object”, and all it takes is one ancient ruler who decided that the foot end of [important ceremonial or social object] would thereafter be standardized as a certain exact length for a comparable measurement to be established.

@TexasUberAlles  
The candy cane was the only thing with a nominal size, and an Equestrian foot is almost certainly the same as an Imperial foot, etymology be damned.

@Agent Tasmania  
assuming the EqG is the same height as a real human  
That’s the thing that really throws all the attempts at logical extrapolation into doubt; most of them assume that objects like apples and rabbits and eight foot candy canes and hairless apes are roughly comparable to the sizes of such objects in this world.

@Background Pony #7040  
That’s still in the typical ballpark, assuming the EqG is the same height as a real human.

@Agent Tasmania  
The only ones I’ve seen that make them that huge use really, really unreliable comparisons.  
Comparison I’ve found most reasonable is >>387940  
It’s based exclusively on canon material; it gives ponies heads about the same size as, a little larger than, humans’; it’s reasonable from a mechanical stress standpoint (80 pound heads do not belong on those necks, nor should hooves that huge be flung around easily); and it corresponds relatively well with the relative sizes of the non-ungulate, real-world life on the show.

The skeleton in the middle would have to represent g1.

The pegasus flight is mostly magical, but they do possess a second pair of socket joints above and aft of their normal shoulders and some very compact but dense flight musculature.

“Wait how would the pegasus wings work musculoskeletally?”

@Homfrog  
Most attempts to derive an Equestrian Pony’s height I’ve seen are about 4 feet at the crown for the ordinary mare body.

houyhnhnms  
also the modern pony from most accounts is around 3 feet tall at the head, so…

@Shademeister  
it’s a dotted line, i.e. sometimes there

>Equus sapiens zacherlei  
Equus sapiens zacherlei faustus?

very useful info. thanks in advanced

Intermediary is E. sapiens zacherlei.

No comments on how the Pinkie Pie X-ray has a unicorn horn? Okay

ídon’t forget to add Eq Girls humans :D
 
Giant heads and stick bodies (how do their spines even support that?)

shit got weird when “magic” started leaking out of the ground.

’Maximus Adorabilis? Damn right.

So what you are saying is… this is how ponies will evolve after mankind either goes extinct or leaves earth for the stars beyond?
