Yes, wild horses do have a natural craving for salt, as it is a necessary mineral for their diet. They will seek out salt licks or mineral deposits in their environment to satisfy this need. Providing salt supplements for wild horses in controlled amounts can help ensure they receive adequate nutrition.
Why do Americans call it 'Horseback Riding'?
In American English, that is called "bareback riding," so perhaps "horseback riding" implies the difference between riding with or without a saddle. The first horse races I went to, at a county fair back in the 50s, did not have the jockeys sitting on the horses' backs, but rather in sulkies drawn behind the horses.

Can horses breathe through their nose?
The nasal passages of a horse are large and flexible and designed to take large amounts of air into the horses lungs. When a horse is exercising at their maximum ability, the amount of air coming in increases ten times the normal. At the back of a horses throat, they have 2 "trap doors", so to speak, flaps of tissue that prevent food and other material from going into the horses lungs. These are called the soft palate and the epiglottis. The soft palate is a flap of tissue at the top of the back of the throat and hangs down. The epiglottis is a flap at the bottom of the back of the throat that points up. Working in harmony, these flaps open and close, letting only food and water go into the horses stomach and only air go into the horses lungs.

Why do wild horses not need shoes?

No. Horses are herbivores that eat grass, not carnivores that eat fish
A strange fact is, that the Icelandic Horse used to actually "catch" fish and eat them. They used to walk into the shallow water and stomp the fish with their hoofs. It was a great source of protein for them! Today, there are still some Icelandic Horses who eat fish, often dried fish. They also like cod-liver oil, it is great for their skin and shiny coat.

Of course stallion Boys of the stallion riding club don't exist! They only existed on romance novels,the precious hearts romances i think.They existed because of man's imaginations, i mean creative and effective imaginations to the point that ordinary people believed they really do exist.
no.no.no.. the SRC boys and girls does exist but the love story does not.. only the characters..
Actually, horses did not evolve at all. God is the Creator of everything, and He made everything (including animals and humans) to never change. In other words, nothing has evolved and there IS NO PROOF THAT EVOLUTION IS REAL!!!! But I actually DO have proof that evolution is NOT real. So sorry....no one can answer that question.

AnswerThe horse's origin prior to domestication (and not as regards fossil records) is a topic still debated. The "Four Foundations Theory" suggests the horse come out of northern Europe or northern/western Asia. (Neither Mexico nor the Middle East enters into the argument.) The earliest records thus far found indicate the horse was first domesticated in Central Asia some 4500 years B.C. Certainly archaeological remains of chariots have been found in the Ural Mountains of Asia that date back 2,000 years.Surf on over to Wikipedia where our friends there have collected some data that can be mined.
How do you describe a horse running fast?
The four basic gaits are the walk, which is much like our walk, the trot, which in slow versions is like our jog, and in faster versions, more like our run. The canter is the next gait, and the gallop is the fastest. Horses have 2 gallops- the in-hand gallop, which is a slower, more collected and controlled gallop, and then the full-out gallop. Running is often used as a substitute for the full-out gallop.
How tall is a race horse in feet?
Horses are measured in "hands," which represent the width of the average man's palm, standardized at four inches. A horse is measured from the ground (front hoof) in a straight line up to the highest point of the withers (above the shoulder, where the back and neck meet, roughly where the mane ends). The average Quarter Horse is about 15 hands, times 4 = 60 inches, so about five feet tall from hoof to withers. Hanovarians can be as tall as 17 or 19 hands.
