No, cutting a horse's tail does not result in its death. The tail of a horse is primarily made up of hair and does not contain any vital organs or major blood vessels. However, it is important to note that cutting a horse's tail too short can cause discomfort and potential health issues, such as irritation or infection. It is recommended to consult with a professional equine groomer or veterinarian for proper tail maintenance.
