Horses

If you mean when did people first start using horses then that would be stone age times.

Actully Indians thought they were big dogs when they saw the American Mustang. They didnt use horses in the stone age. The Indians had always used dogs to pull there equipment around when they saw the hosres thinking they were big dogs they cought them traind them became there friends and used them to pull more equipment. The Spanish have always used horses though, but not in the stone age.

No. A horse is a placental mammal. Monotremes are egg-laying mammals, and horses do not lay eggs.

Possum urine is toxic to equines.

Horses tell eachother apart by smell. White horses, for some reason, smell different, so they are often loners within a herd.

These are only two but are pretty interesting.

Generally carass weight includes the bones in the main part of the animal.

The percentage of meat and bone (% yield) from most animals that are bred for slaughter (cows, sheep, pigs etc.) are in the 50-70 percent range based the type of animal.

Horses probably run in te low end of this range as they are not bred for slaughter.

Certain of the more muscular breeds of horses, especially those that have lighter bone would yield higher.

An animal with a live weight of 1000 pounds would have a carcass weight between 500 and 600 pounds.

The other answer is that no horses have edible meat (whether this is because they are loaded with chemicals or can't be slaughtered humanely) so zero pounds.

Depending on the breed of the horse you can go to the official breed websites but you have to be a member on it. For example like the American Quarter Horse Association you would go to their home page. And if your horse is a Thoroughbred race horse you can go to pedigreequery.com and you can type the name of the horse and just pick the one with the right country and there you go.

The first BREED of horse ever was the Eohippus, which lived in the same times as mammoths and saber tooth tigers.

Un-backed, they need to be backed in order to be ridden.

An "untamed" horse may also be called a green horse, an un-broke horse, etc.

They may also be called feral in most parts of the world. Mustangs are wild horses in both the USA and Canada; Brumbies are wild horses in Australia.

Horses become very agitated and nervous when separated from their herd. As naturally grouping creatures, and prey animals at that, horses know they are in far more danger alone than with a group.

Wild horses have developed adaptations for survival in their natural habitat as opposed to a domestic environment. One such adaptation is the learned behavior or pawing at the edges of ice-locked ponds to access fresh water.

Chincoteague Pony is pronounced Shin-co-teeg Pow-knee

You cannot translate CCs to horsepower. The mathematical theorem for horsepower is:

Distance in feet per minute X Force in Pounds

33,000 X time in minutes required to move the weight.

A mare is an adult female horse.

A stallion is an adult male horse.

A gelding is a castrated male horse.

Rocks, soil (not including any plantlife or other organisms living in it), the stall, pavement... anything that is not living.

Hi,

There are alot of horse breeds in the world and it really depends on what breed, age, how much excercise and if it is under good condition.

How much is a good conditioned horse?

A good conditioned horse is like £2700 and they are lovely, and maybe bad is like £700. If foal is broken in it is like £1000 pounds. My friends horse was £1500, and mine was the same becaus they were same breed.

Hope this helps!

a female horse over 4 years is a mare. a female horse under 4 years is a filly. same as a stallion and colt. a male horse under 4 years is a colt a male horse over 4 years is a stallion. in the wild, a horse can become a herd stallion at the age of 5 years.

Some of the main adaptations that horses have are their long legs that make it easy for them to run, eyes on the side of their heads so that they can see predators approaching from behind them. Most of the time when a horse's foal is born a behavioral adaptation is made. The mare secludes herself from all other horses or humans in order to protect her foal. If another horse or a human comes near her she will protect her foal by biting, kicking , putting her ears back or just running away. But this only lasts for 2-3 months.

An unbroken or untamed mustang is a feral horse.

Hundreds or more, but most are minor variations.

The most common are red-green confusion, followed by blue-green confusion.

Extremely rare is complete color blindness; everything is shades of gray.

A hand is a unit of measurement that is typically used with horses. A hand is equivalent to four inches. To measure the height of a horse, measure from the top of the withers (high point where the mane starts on the back) down to their legs.

Yes a ten year old can have a horse provided they know how to care for the horse and the parent or parents are willing to pay for the expense of owning a horse. Before owning your own horse you should be able to feed, groom, tack up, ride reasonably well, preform first aid and recognize signs of illness and injury in a horse. If you do not have any experience in any of those things it would be best to take lessons and possibly lease a horse before owning one.

There are several indications of a horse's age, many similar to those seen in humans. Old horses will move more slowly and with less spring in their step. A black, brown or other non-grey horse that has grey or white hairs around its muzzle is probably old. The hair in an older horse's mane and tail thins, and mares may come on heat less frequently. The easiest way to tell a horse's age is by looking in its mouth. A very young horse will still have its milk teeth, which are smaller and whiter. After 6 months the milk teeth start to fall out. By age 4, most horses have a complete set of adult teeth. When they come through they are straight, white and not worn. You can tell how old a horse is by the slope and amount of wear on its teeth. This website has diagrams and a good explanation: www.hanne.com/teeth-ageing.html

A foal. A foal that still nurses is a suckling, off the mare is a weanling.
A horse that is under a year old is called a foal. A female foal is called a filly and and a male foal is called a colt.

Feces...their's generally looks like slightly formed balls of chewed wet grass.
