Horses that have grown up in the wild, and living in the wild, eat a wide variety of plants including some that are mildly toxic such as sagebrush. Just as "man does not live by bread alone," wild horses do not live by grass alone. What they choose to eat can relate to availability, time of year, nutritional and health needs, and mechanical needs. The last item may sound odd, but all horses have teeth that constantly grow and that is because a wild diet includes some woody shrubs. Roughage.
