A warm blooded animal is called a mammal
Horses can control their temperature about as much as we can. The terms warm-blooded, hot-blooded and cold-blooded have nothing to do with the actual temperature of that breed of equines. It is simply a term to divide breeds into; cold-blooded, the heavier, bigger draft horses; warm-blooded, most riding breeds; and hot-blooded, Arab and Thoroughbred horses.
Cold-blooded animals have a variable body temperature which reflects the environmental temperature (eg. fish and reptiles). Warm-blooded animals keep their core body temperature at a nearly consistent level regardless of the temperature of the surrounding environment (eg. birds and mammals).
