Horses

Notice the horse in this LDS depiction of the Stripling Warriors from the Book of Mormon. Scientists say that the
modern-day horse did not exist in the Americas during BOM times. it is universally accepted among mainstream
archaeologists, anthropologists, and historians that there is no evidence of the existence of a pre-Columbian horse,
excepting the long-extinct species.
The following is taken from wikipedia - Book of Mormon anachronisms (as of May 20, 2010):

Horses are mentioned fourteen times in the Book of Mormon, and are portrayed as an integral part of the cultures
described.[1] There is no evidence that horses existed on the American continent during the 2500-3000 year history
of the Book of Mormon (2500 B.C. - 400 A.D.) Horses evolved in North America, [2] but became extinct at the end of
the Pleistocene.[3][4]). Horses did not reappear in the Americas until the Spaniards brought them from Europe. [5]
They were brought to the Caribbean by Christopher Columbus in 1493,[6] and to the American continent by Cortés
in 1519.[7]
