A horse is a relatively large land-based quadruped. Its body is completely covered in short dense fur of various colors (black, brown, red, yellow and white are common, although the range of shade and tone is extreme within each color and several can be present on one animal) as well as longer hair along the top of the neck and emanating from the tail head.

The horse has single-toed hooves rather than the paws of a feline or the feet of a primate. It is an herbivore and as such has both powerful sharp incisors for cutting vegetation as well as highly developed premolars and molars for grinding. There is a space between the incisors and the premolar/molar set where a variable number of canines (wolf teeth) can be found.

In terms of muscle development, the single best word is "rounded" - the shoulders, chest, abdomen and rump all have rounded edges and prominences, in contrast to the squared edges more commonly found in beef cattle. Horses have no horns or other protuberances - their defense is a powerful kick, painful bite and their ability to run for miles to get away from predators.


It looks like a Zebra but its basically all one colour.
