Horse pics

Horses were wild animals in the beginning. They were hunted for their skin as well as meat. Around 3000 B.C. things changed and people began taming horses and using them to carry things. Around 1900 B.C. horses first appeared in Greece, which most probably came with the arrival of the Indo-Europeans. An interesting fact about horses is that they have monocular vision. This means a different image is seen by each eye so that a horse is seeing two different pictures at the same time. They can also have binocular vision when they look down their nose. Source

Pinto horse

A Pinto horse has a coat color that consists of large patches of white and any other color. Various cultures throughout history appear to have selectively bred for pinto patterns. There are a number of words used to describe the typical color and spotting patterns of pinto horses. They are genetically created when an allele for a spotting pattern is present. The genes that create the underlying base coat color are not related to the genes that create white spotting. Source

Mare and Foal Standing Together

A female horse is called a mare. In the wild it is the mare that decides when the herd moves on to another spot to find food.

A foal is a baby horse. When foals are born their legs are almost the same length as they are when they are fully grown - their legs are so long that they find it difficult to reach down to the grass to eat.Source
