I think amoebas take the prize.
All I know is, horses give the loudest, longest, most musical farts ever. Especially when they're galloping or bucking.

Not when they're galloping or bucking, I'm afraid. More like when they're standing facing away and I walk by.

Yeah, horses do seem to take a special pleasure in giving out nice, long, musical farts as people walk by, but they DO fart when they're moving too. You watch a frisky horse that's just been turned out to get some exercise, and he'll gallop (bucking every stride or two) down the side of the fence, and he'll give out these short little spurts every stride. It's hilarious.

I swear on my life, I just saw a squirrel fart at me today. I was walking along, and I heard this strange puffing noise, and up in the tree there was a squirrel with its tail raised above its head, farting away. He must have had a lot of gas, because it just kept on going.
