Why did the eatons bring horses on their boats rather than slaves?

This would have been done mostly if they were travelling to an unknown place. Horses would provide transport and food, where as slaves would have needed food which would have taken up more cargo room. Horses can forage for food in most anyplace and if they became lame or injured could be killed for food, leather, and other provisions.
