Although each of the following is an option, which animal is preferable to pull your cart?
Answer Oxen
While mules and horses were sometimes used to pull the wagons, oxen were the preferred haulers. Although they were slower, they weren't as bull-headed as mules, and they were super strong and not picky about the grass they ate. You'd need six oxen to pull a large wagon.
