not extra in some cases they may have less, but this is not always true. Arabians usually are more compact in the back area and therefore can carry more weight for longer distances than a similar size hores of another breed.
Yes. Sea-horses are real. There is actually a site with quite a bit of information on them. I will attach it so you may learn more about them if you wish.
Most of them do, but it really depends on the horse.
One may eat them until there is no more, while another could shun it completely. They also like carrots and, if used very moderately, peppermints. But you should check with your vet before ever feeding a horse anything strange like people food.
Just to improve this answer a little, you can give your horse a apple now and again but it not recommended to give him/her more the 2 a day. Apples as you know contain acid, this could cause problems for the horse in his/her's stomach so its recommended you keep a close eye on how many you or someone else is feeding apples to your a horse.
They normally stand about 14.1 - 15.1 hands high.
Well the original old type of Arabian had a kind of 'ewe' neck where the bottom was longer and/or stuck out farther than what was considered acceptable by breeders. The horses also tended to carry their heads and necks very upright and sometimes held back towards their withers. Modern Arabians now have a more graceful neck where it is highly arched and carried either forward, level or straight depending on the horse.
There is no set cost for a horse of a specific age or breed. Many things go into figuring the price of a horse, these include but are not limited to; Breed, age, sex, pedigree, level of training, show record, height, color, location and local economy.
The Arabian horse of course has all the same adaptions that other breeds and types of horses do, but they also developed the ability to go long periods without water or food, and to survive off of sparse food. They adapted a light springy gait for moving over the deep sands of the Middle East. they have large nostrils for pulling more air into their lungs as they run which aids in their endurance. They also adapted a smaller more compact body which helped them to survive.
Arabian horses originate possibly in Egypt. They are one of the oldest breeds of horses. They were bred by Bedouins, groups of Arabs that often raided to make a living. The Bedouins bred the horses to be quick and hardy specifically for the purpose of making a quick get away after a raid. They are very tough horses and tend to be rather short, around 14-15.4 hands high. The most common coat colors for the breed are gray, chestnut and bay. On rare occasions, they are mouse gray, black, flaxen liver chestnut, and roan. Today, Arabians are commonly found performing many disciplines. These include Western Pleasure, Saddle seat, endurance, dressage, cross country, and many more.
It depends. Any breed can be a barrel horse, its just whether the horse loves to run and has the desire to do it. If it doesn't have the desire, it will be a pain trying to force it to run.
They can for a starter horse, but to get to the upper levels, you would need a horse more like a quarter horse, with good hindquarters, built for sprinting and turning on a dime. And the desire to barrel race is important too.you won't do well on a horse who doesn't like his job because he will protest all the way.
Scientifically speaking, the Arabian horse belongs to the class Mammalia.
As far as the breed is concerned though, they are often classified as "hot-blooded" creatures, meaning they are spirited and quick learning.
Average is 110
Normally, a horse's temperature will be between 99.8 F and 101.3 F. Keep in mind that the weather can affect temperature. In warm weather or during exercise, stress, or excitement, a horse's temperature will naturally rise.
Hope this helps :D
The only animal that hunts and eats the Arabian oryx are wolves. The Arabian oryx is a type of antelope that was almost extinct at one time. The wild ones were completely wiped out, and the population was built back up in zoos and on sanctuaries.
I do not know a precise number, but this is the best i could get, I hope it helps. According to "Saudi Business" Some 237,000 horses are registered in the United States, Canada, and Mexico, and some 100,000 owners listed.
the average weight of a Arabian is just under 1000 pounds, standing about 14.3 hands on average.
Arabians measure from 14.2 to 15 hands so they would range around 800 to lower 1000's. (From my mind)
The breed has 17 ribs, five lumbar bones and sixteen tail vertebrae. All other breeds have 18 ribs, six lumbar bones and eighteen tail vertebrae.
Answer2:
Arabians display a higher rate of having less ribs and vertebrae, but generally this is because two vertebrae bones tend to be fused together making it look like one bone instead of two. All other breeds of horse have the ability to be born with one less rib or vertebrae also, which means this trait is not unique to the Arabian breed.
Arabian Facts
The Arabian horses have a beautiful and unique appearance. They are generally small in stature but readily recognized by their dished face and fine features. As they were bred in different parts of the world various breeds emerged including the Polish Arabian, the Shagya Arabian in Hungary, and the Egyptian Arabian. The Arabian blood contributed to the development of many other fine breeds as well, such as the Lipizzaner and the Thoroughbred, and it is still used to improve and refine other breeds.
In early times they were renowned for their incredible endurance and courage. Today Arabians are known for their "people-oriented" nature and loving disposition, which makes them great pleasure horses and pets. They are also known to be very intelligent. They are quick to learn and willing to please.
The distance a horse can maintain a gallop depends on their build and physical fitness. A well conditioned horse can easily maintain a gallop for a mile to a mile and a half. At two to two and a half miles most horses will feel fatigued.
It all depends on the person selling the horse...or the particular breeding.
They can run from 250 on up. You might want to check breeder sites and the classifieds online to find mini horses for a good price. When you get them as foals they will be cheaper.
All horses require the same things. A horse in the wild would search out grass and edible weeds, possibly even tree bark if nothing else is around. They will also lick rocks and soil to get minerals and salt.
Arabian horses are one of the worlds oldest breeds, and no one knows exactly when they where bred, or came to America.
Arabian horses live just like other horses live depends on how good u take care of it but most of the time 20-28 but i have a friends horse that's is 40 years old and she still rides hime!
Arabians are used as racehorses. They are the fourth fastest breed of horse. Thoroughbreds can run at speeds of 30 to 50 MPH, Quarter horses can sprint at 30 to 55 MPH, Akhal-Tekes can run at 25 to 35 MPH and Arabians can run at 18 to 30 MPH.
Arabians like all other breeds can maintain a stable condition through many ways. To regulate their temperature they can sweat, drink water and find shade. To keep warm they can eat grass and hay, find sunny spots in the open and move around. To stay full they will eat what is available and drink as much as they can when they find a water source.There are of course many other ways they can maintain stable conditions, but there are far too many to list here.
Arabians are a tiny bit slower than thoroughbreds. There are race in the UK, that I have been to, which are Arabian horses only. These are usually flat races.
There are also Anglo-Arabian races. These breed of horse is 50% Arabian and 50% thoroughbred. They are fast like a thoroughbred and have great stamina like arabians.
