How many foals can a Clydesdale horse have at one time?

Horses usually produce only one live foal with occasional
instances where two live twins are born.
Twin pregnancies in horses can be very problematic and while
draft horses (like the Clydesdale) and Standardbred horses seem to
be more successful at producing live twins they may require
significant veterinary care in order to survive.

How long is the lifespan for the Arabian horse?

Most horses live for between 18 and 25 years. Horses that are
exercised hard and strained when they are young often wear and die
faster, around age 13 or 14. This is only likely to be the case
with an Arabian if it was raised in Arabia or parts of Africa where
horses are ridden and raced as yearlings. Horses will live longer
if they are well cared for and given good nutrition.

Why aren't we horses enemies?

In the wild horses live in herds so they have a pack and they
are like a little family.
But in captivity horses look at their owners as a part of there
herd especially if they don't live with other horses, so they
wouldn't want to be enimes with the people that feed them care for
them and are part of their herd.
Horses are only really 'enimes' with humans if they have been
treated badly but they can over come that if they are given time
and care.
